Need help on a YouTube Copyright Notice.

Several Years ago I used Sony Vegas with the Cinescore plugin to create background music in video which was posted on YouTube . Today I received a notice today from YouTube that rumblefish.com has claimed that music is violating their copyright. The Theme I used is called Monaco Diamond, one of the most popular themes in Cinescore.

This is my video upon which I received the notice:

Has anyone else had this happen, and if so what was the result?

I've run into this on quite a few occasions on YouTube, only one of the many reasons I hate YouTube. I'm not a partner and don't have ads but have gotten several from some whacky company (wish I remembered the name) that from what I read after digging around, seems to almost arbitrarily file complaints on YouTube. Have no clue their angle but it is a pain. Beyond that, as I do quite a few music video's, have gotten flagged for copyright even for video's I've done. Have to continually go through and tell YouTube, um, the band hired me to make the video you flagged.

I imagine YouTube must somehow penalise those who trigger multiple copyright disputes by falsely registering works in their Content ID scheme.

Down a somewhat different line. Copyright/patent infringement has become a business model.

I only listened until the kid hit "Dock of the Bay", but that's enough to tell that this is a case of singing the melody over a chord progression so that it 'sorta fits'.

Those chords are not the proper form or sequence to this song, and I suspect that's the case several others, if this is an indication of the license that was taken in the creation of the video.
