You're not a bad person and you're probably right that you will likely never receive a take-down notice or any nasty notes from Lawyers. But, if you ever wanted to do more with your work, you probably would have to clear the rights for the soundtracks. I'm not saying its right or wrong, but that's the current status of things. I've worked in TV stations, and its very typical that we had to reject certain works that we would have loved to pick up for distribution due to issues like this. There are whole industries built around the clearances of rights, and believe me they don't take these things lightly.
It may all be off the radar now and for a long time to come. Obviously its impossible to track down everything that exists onine. But, if you're dealing with distributors who need to care about these things (and someone's job is probably devoted to it), then it really does become an issue.

I think this comment is besides the point, I am not a broadcaster, I don't have a radio station, I am simply a man who makes videos as a hobby and puts the occasional mainstream track on my videos for all, well lets face it a selective audience of ten's around the world. I don't advertise, the free video hosting sites don't really, I have had my videos on some occasions put on the Featured Video on Dailymotion, but doing this only generates 1000 views, from this site.I will stick with my original plan, I will keep the video on the free video hosting sites until I am asked to take it down from a source of copyright law, either the MPAA or the RIAA or the European or British versions thereof. Then and Only Then my argument will be resolved.I await with humor.Paul KnightOn 18 Mar 2006, at 15:44, David Howell wrote:If anyone thinks "oh they wont come after me", think again. My

Nothing. The majority of the music played was indie music. On
occasion, a DJ would mix it up and throw in a more popular tune.
First, the RIAA threatened me. Then, they came after me.
The end result? I dont run an internet radio station anymore.
