What happened? Is this some kind of joke?  A temporary glitch? Where are the videos. Are they serious?

This is outrageous! What's happening to free speech around Youtube? All the material on Ysabellabravetalk is original and MaryAnne's intellectual property. I imagine its hard not to take this disappearance personally. Someone from Youtube must communicate with Ysabella if they haven't already! How do we get through to them?

Greetings:

I have now placed the following at the end of all my posted topics:


"http://tinyurl.com/3yrlwa
This url will take you to the Ysabella Brave PayPal site. Help support your community artist."

If you have a posted topic on the message boards, please feel free to copy the above from one of my message board topics and paste it into the end of your topic using the "Edit" feature. By copying from the topic section, it will keep the url as a "live" operational link. The above link is not operational.

Your pal,

use your charge card on Paypal that way you do not have to have an account. That is how I do it and had no trouble.

For those of us who can't use Paypal, is there any other way we can donate? Of course I don't want to compromise YB's privacy.

Thank you Bob, especially if pretty well no one else had the URL on hand (even MYB), glad I could help.

I'm in, but I don't understand what to do.
Since the late '60's I've been "geeky" - PDP10 computer nerdy - but I need to hear for Mary Ann on how to help.

Ok so I'm old....!

Seriously ...I work the overnights and will not be able to make it through without being able to listen to Ysabella! If I can swing it I'm thnking of retiring. But so many Ysabella songs helped me through the though times. I owe her so much!! I would guess all of us ysablella fans are of the same thought. In the dead of night her songs made things so much brighter!!

And Ysabella..if you are reading this...the world is always turning toward the morning. I Posted my version of this on YT right before the "event." The last verse means so much to me. "we don't know what the little flowers know.... they put there glories all behind them and let it go, but you know they'll be there in the morning.
Ysabella...in the morning you will be shining above all others

Here's dimeuno's link to PayPal. Thanks, dimeuno, we all owe you a debt of gratitude.

Let's make this work. If you had to buy all of her songs on CDs, figure 10 songs per album, times say, $15 per disc (and there would be no video); that comes up to at least $225 bucks (UScy). That's just $1.50 a song. She's worth it, and this is not charity, it's support and it's payback, for the memories and all of the other wonderful things she has done for us.

I'm thinking of that last scene in 'Mr. Smith Goes to Washington', where the filibustering senator (Jimmy Stewart), is flooded by an avalanche of tons of letters of support, the result of a word of mouth campaign. We can do this. Yes we can!

Dimeuno just sent me the Ysabellabrave PayPal link, for anyone who has not become an unemployed hobo (like me) yet, so we can all send our last Roosevelt dimes to help and support the one person who has really made a difference in our lives. E-mail me at my inbox for details.

For all the "coolness" people attribute to YouTube, the simple fact is that YouTube is a business with the sole goal of making money. The drones at YouTube are much the same as the automatons working at eBay. It is not that they singled out Ysabella Brave, it is that they simply do not care. It is very possible, even perhaps likely, that their mechanism of deleting videos and suspending accounts is completely automatic and does not even have human intervention. If enough hopeless trolls intimidated by a talented singer team up with the sad and bitter people who can not bear to see the joy one woman has the power to bring to so many people, and together flag your videos, a suspension might even happen automatically. I do not say this to defend such a terrible move by YouTube. I only say this because I want you, Ysabella Brave, to realize you are not unloved or unwanted. I love you, I want you, and I am only one of those many many people to whom you have given such pleasure and enjoyment at the sound of your voice and the feeling you share in your videos. Please do not feel sad when there are so many people who have you to thank for bringing a piece of joy into their lives every day. Thank you.

Same site, here's a recent news post and a slightly older one. Shows the music industry hate/love struggle to come to terms with the YouTube distribution model.

Some of the videos are on my website. Only videos older than one year. They are in WMV-format.

Hmm, guess this is the class action here:

but I can't find any up to date news on what is happening.

That's terrible, terrible news---your job and your channel both vaporizing. Is there something the Ysabella Brave Community can do? I take this blow very personally.

starvinARTguy: Re: back up copies: many of us have downloaded her videos (I haven't). So we may have access to them, if anyone is willing to share. I feel so empty right now, as if my house burned down.

starvinARTguy: You have said this more eloquently than anyone here. I think we are all supremely frustrated.

Many of you have heard from her talk video of a few hours ago, that she was laid off from her job on Wednesday. I can't imagine a worse week for her, and I'm devastated.

I think you'll find other snippets here and there, on other channels. What irks me is that she was doing songs from 70 years ago, while there are thousands of people posting direct rip-offs of Beatles, etc, and not song covers, and they are still "up".
Time will tell.
