Luckily I didn't get an actual strike. Only an automated message from youtube that the copyright holder has every right to take legal action against me at any time they want, and IF they do THEN a strike will be made against my account. Basically youtube is acting like the middle-man goon in an extortion scheme.
I muted the audio and replaced it with Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture as a form of protest. It's a little immature but I needed to blow off some steam.
I thought about disputing the claim but the general consensus seems to be "don't bother", 99% of the time your case will never reach a real live human being.
And as for the wedding video fiasco it's 200% greed. It's a wedding video, what was he going to do? Sell DVDs from a dark alley and rake in millions in bootleg profits? Who's going to buy some random guy's wedding video?
