I am faced with the fact that the music video of my favourite band is not available in my region.
I found out about this video by accident, thanks to an app for Invidious.

Perhaps the decision to restrict access belongs to the record label? But what’s the point if the band’s discs and vinyl records are sold in my country?

(Old music videos and a few new ones are available for viewing. Only one video is not available.)

Arte TV’s YouTube channel also has some interesting phenomena going on.

They post recordings of concerts, and after a while they remove them from public access. This can happen a few days after the release or a few months later.

    Copyright is more complicated than it might first appear. There is a copyright on the music, the performance, the lyrics, but also the music video itsself, or even individual things used within the music video and all of these may be owned by different people each with particular license terms.
