Thanks, just looking at that link now I'll get on it. We did have a licensing issue before with a video blogger who asked my permission to use one of our songs as his theme. Youtube were fairly sticky about it, that's why I was surprised something like this slipped through.
I did contact the uploader nothing back from them yet.
I'm a massive advocate of CC and I'm old school in that I believe the number one consideration for an artist is to be heard (as opposed to being paid) but being open and with so many platforms holding your work it's hard to keep track of things.
I wonder is there a way to use a Shazam like system to index audio usages on the web? Then scale could come into play and perhaps help to get cc artists paid on a fair and rational basis.
