It’s devastating! Listened to them every night, reminded me of when I was little :(

Unfortunately, many videos (mostly the Famous Five) have been deleted by youtube. They were taken down by a 3rd party copyright company - Link Busters, who claimed to be acting for the copyright holders. However, their "evidence" was links to the unabridged readings by Jan Francis on Audible. It wasn't from content matching (I only uploaded recordings that were not commercially available) but it seems they have just used an automated title search system, incorrectly flagging these as owned by their clients. Because they are a big company copyright takedown company, youtube don't investigate and there is no appeals procedure. I know many people appreciate making these available (the deleted videos had over 1 million views) and I did put the effort in to record them but I don't own the copyright to the original works and so I do not commercialise these. I am considering re-uploading here, a new channel, or somewhere else, but if would be wasted time if they just get taken down again from an automated process and don't want any legal troubles. I am sorry that I can't make these available at these time. I know so many enjoy or rely on these recordings and it makes me sad that it has been taken away from you all.

@ thanks for such a detailed response! Do you have an email address I can write to you on? All the best, Ollie

Oh please, make them available again somehow. My daughter loved them or is there any other chance to get them from somewhere? I have the feeling I have searched the entire web but couldn't find them anywhere.

@ ahh okay i thought it might’ve been a copyright issue, don’t stress about it honestly, as much as i miss them it’s not worth any legal hassle on your part :)
