I wonder if the blocking of "Ol' Man River" is because of the original music rights and the Jerome Kern estate; the compositional output of certain American "musical institutions" like Kern and Irving Berlin still has numerous legal watchdogs out for non-royalty broadcasts or performances.  PC

That's correct.  Many videos are blocked in Germany, anything owned by Universal or the part of SME that was part of BMG.  I don't have a problem with that.  I don't mind the real owners claiming their rightful ownership.  For that reason, I won't upload anything I know is owned by Warner, because it's theirs, not mine, and if they don't want it uploaded that's their right.  On the other hand, I feel much warmer towards Sony, Universal, and others who allow me to post historical material that belongs to them, but which they can't/won't make available themselves.

What's really annoying me is that corporations seem to be able to claim ownership on material for which they have no right, and woe to you if you try to reason with them.

I've had some of my YT uploads show up with 'Matched third party content.'
flags including the Indian 78 I uploaded with Mohammad Rafi and Lata
Mangeshkar.  And my Mercury 78 disc of 'With my eyes wide open I'm
dreaming' by the Patti Page 'Quartet' is blocked in Germany!
