I have reserved all rights in the Work, first published in Sep 14, 2010, 12:49 AM, and have registered copyright therein "Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing. Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favor of fair use."

Your work entitled WWE Raw 13.09.2010 RAW ROULETTE - Edge is dancing VERY FUNNY is essentially identical to the Work and clearly used the Work as its basis. The video is exact same length and fading time that I personally edited out of the video, and you did NOT credit me for the original copy.
As you neither asked for nor received permission to use the Work as the basis for Edge & Jillian Sing "You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)" nor to make or distribute copies, including electronic copies, of same, I believe you have willfully infringed my rights under 17 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq. and could be liable for statutory damages as high as $150,000 as set forth in Section 504(c)(2) therein.
I demand that you immediately cease the use and distribution of all infringing works derived from the Work, and all copies, including electronic copies, of same, that you deliver to me, if applicable, all unused, undistributed copies of same, or destroy such copies immediately and that you desist from this or any other infringement of my rights in the future. If I have not received an affirmative response from you by February 28, 2011 indicating that you have fully complied with these requirements, I shall take further action against you.
Very truly yours, MidgetmaniaRIP
