So, umm, who is going to remix the hell out of this??? Obviously that would be a fair use, right????

Does anybody know if there have been any studies done (or blog
posts/anecdotes/etc.) about the rate at which these infringers create
new accounts on YouTube to continue uploading after the first account
is banned?

In other words, are people actually concerned about losing an account
when it is (potentially) easy to jump back onto the service?

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

I just want to highlight this section of the blog post [1]:

"However, we’ve found that in some cases, a one-size-fits-all
suspension rule doesn’t always lead to the right result. Consider,
for example, a long-time YouTube user who received two copyright
notifications four years ago but who’s uploaded thousands of
legitimate videos since then without a further copyright
notification. Until now, the four-year-old notifications would have
stayed with the user forever despite a solid track record of good
behavior, creating the risk that one new notification -- possibly
even a fraudulent notification -- would result in the suspension of
the account. We don’t think that’s reasonable. So, today we’ll
begin removing copyright strikes from user’s accounts in certain
limited circumstances, contingent upon the successful completion of
YouTube Copyright School, as well as a solid demonstrated record of
good behavior over time."
