Hey Simon and all, I was going to do an AudioBoo, but my throat is rather sore at the moment, so I'll just type this out. OK, so I got curious and checked IODA Promonets terms of use and sure enough, in section 2 Limited Promotional License it clearly states that permission is granted to the Podcaster I.E. the Poet who originally had used the song material in their video, a license to use the song as long as... and here I believe is the clincher, it is solely distributed from the URL mentioned in the application to the IODA Promonet. So, say the videographer/poet who put together the video with the music submitted their Youtube account orwhatever URL they used to distribute the original video and then it appeared on your Youtube channel, bingo, it's a violation of the agreement and therefore IODA would be correct in saying that it was a copyright infringement. You're right about Youtube, they should have granted a few days for you to contact IODA and perhaps going through the proper channels, get the proper rights to use song on your Youtube URL specifically. Anyhow, here is the link to the terms and conditions for IODA Promonet, it's a rather dry read, but It might clarify some points.
