We have just made our first APPEAL via the YouTube copyright system, which opens us up to legal proceedings all thanks to the flagrant claims made by The Orchard Music in bad faith.
The Orchard Music is by FAR the worst perpetrator (in our experience) of bad faith copyright claims on YouTube. The following videos have had matches applied to them, which we have disputed and the claims have been subsequently REINSTATED:

We have appeals ONE of the THREE bad faith reinstatements because appealing all three at once would give The Orchard Music the ability to apply three strikes to our account, effectively shutting it down. Considering their behaviour thus far, it is easy to see that as a possible scenario.
