But yes YouTube will not pay you of you steal someone's videos to re upload as your own.

Fuck Youtube...A true story: A few years ago some Hindu uploaded to Youtube one of our old action movies. The movie took place in Medieval Europe ,was shot of course in English and with US and UK actors. We sent to Youtube DMCA take down, and after they did, the Hindus came back and filed counter claiming it was a "Hindi action movie"..... The idiots at Youtube reinstated this Hindi Action movie....It took us about 6 months and about 7 K in legal to finally get rid of it.

....and. BTW are you saying that all the movies you refer to were made on or before 1925 ?
