The hit song �Blurred Lines� was turned  into �Word Crimes,� an entertaining ode to proper grammar. Thumbs Up

Loved the song and wanted to share with someone is Germany, but they said that they cannot view the video in Germany.  Is that just because of filtering at their job or are youtube videos blocked in Germany?

Can anyone residing in Germany let me know if they can view the video? Thanks!

Red Camaro- Germany has an organization called GEMA that demands payment for any public use of music on their artists list (user has to prove that the artist is NOT on the list). As a result, many Youtube videos are blocked in Germany to prevent Youtube from having to pay these fees.
 
It �s really a stupid (and biased towards big industry vs the small artist) system, but it has been determined by the German supreme court as legal.
 
For me, I find Google Chrome and a simple app called "Hola" solve the  problem 99% of the time.
 
Two links that explain:
