YouTube "Fair Use" court battle
The woman is now suing Universal Music claiming "fair use" of the song in her video.
"The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said copyright holders can't demand videos and other content that uses their material be taken down without determining whether they constitute "fair use." It's the first circuit court to issue such a ruling, according to the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the civil liberties group that represented Lenz in her lawsuit."
This is a significant case if the courts decide that using music in a homemade video posted on YouiTube is "fair use" even though those videos make money with YouTube's revenue sharing.
The video has since been restored to YouTube and has racked up over 1 million hits.
