Thanks to everyone who has offered help. The plan as of now is that the wonderful Song By Toad will be moving Muruch onto his server at the end of this month, so it looks like Muruch.com will be the blog’s new home in 2009.

Boyhowdy – I never received a notice for the Joey+Rory review, and it wasn’t until after I filed the counter claim and emailed repeated demands that Blogger revealed the original claim was from IFPI. To file a counter claim, follow the instructions on this page. You have to mail a letter to the address listed on the page with your contact info, the url of the deleted post, copy those two scary paragraphs stating you’ll be responsible for legal fees, and include proof that you had permission to post the mp3s (I printed out my emails from Sugar Hill).

Kudos on an exceptionally clearly laid out explanation of what blogger is doing absolutely wrong. Notably, for the first year EVER, Google was not voted one of the top ten most trustworthy tech firms by the public; this behavior here is part of why, I suspect.

I’m here to help, too. Just say the word; I’ll offer…um…advice and strategies from someone who’s been there. And coding, if needed.

Oh, and I WOULD have filed counter claims, but blogger never sent me the notices, so I don’t have what I need to file the counternotices. Can you say “illegal takedown”? I knew that you could.
