Ah well. It's always a gamble when you do that stuff - I was still learning about copyright law about a decade ago and had been putting up first issues to comics I was reviewing as a 'now get into the comic!' thing, and the creator of one of the comics came in panic and asked me to take them down and also linked me to where I could link to legal sample copies.

I mean, I thought I was doing a good thing but that poor freaked out author made me look more into it. At the time I felt kind of resentful, even though he'd actually been nice about it. But I'd also had a bunch of old pony episodes on my webserver that I realized maybe shouldn't be there, so I think he may have saved my website account by making me realize I should delete my majorly not mine stuff.

That said, the person who had all of Moondreamers on Youtube is a saint. And I would have adored you if I didn't have my own copy of Rescue at Midnight Castle.

It's a REVIEW which puts it under the section of commentary as well as parody of fair use which protects my first amendment right to critique without the creator trying to censor my possibly negative opinion using copyright claims.

If I have misread your particular situation then I apologize.
