Copyright and YouTube.
Watch this.
54.5 million YouTube views and counting. Chris Brown did not claim copyright and remove the song because the publicity and popularity of the song superseded the fact that the song was under copyright.
It was to popular that it got into number 4 on the iTunes charts. And the song was already 18 months also.
The video collected about 26,000 dollars in donations to end domestic violence.
'But it's not just about dollars and impressions. Just look at all the joy that was spread through progressive rights management and new technology. And I think that we can all agree that joy is definitely an idea worth spreading.'
Picking up something from a TEDtalk:

Snowing in Hobart?
Came back from class with the afternoon bus,
Looked kind of misty, Hobart's weather we trust.
Sat in my room quite comfortably, got to my assignment, ideas started to flow,
Looked out of my window, I saw what could be snow!
Took out my camera, snapped some shots of white,
Then came in Clarice, excited at the sight!
Could there be snow, not yet? maybe no?
But I caught a rainbow, a promise? of snow?
A rare sight nevertheless, one of Hobart’s best,
Will wait and we see, if there will be snow!
