Hey, everyone ~ so, I just got my first ever "Matched Third Party Content" notice on my YouTube channel. It was for a video I just posted of The Pretenders' "I'll Stand By You." There are a TON of other people who have covers of this song up on YouTube...so what is the deal here? I am surmising that they must also have the "Matched Third Party Content' notices too? Do I need to just take the video down? I have never had this happen before, so I am uncertain about what to do here. When I clicked the link on YouTube to learn more about the notice, it was all legal mumbo-jumbo which makes no sense to me. I am inclined to just make the video unlisted or private -- will that keep me "safe" (trying to avoid a "strike" here) or do I need to get rid of it altogether? Thanks for any help and/or advice!
