More recently than Adam's October 2017 video, he had another copyright strike for, presumably, showing a repeating clip of the Single Ladies music video without playing even one second of the music itself. He recreated the song with a chintzy MIDI soundfont.

"To learn more about copyright, you may visit..." It must be nice to have such a dominant position that you can patronize your "partners" in such a way.

I'm constantly amazed that this company does not invest more in human copyright legal reviews when their product is pretty much just obtaining rights to share copies of other people's work.
