Hypothetical question

Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.

company using my music without sync license. I've been dealing with this for about 13 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

This involves content I created over the past 26 months. I do not have documentation proving my ownership and timeline.

What are my legal options here? Is it worth pursuing?

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

The trap most people fall into is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead.

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.

For DMCA takedowns: the platform has to remove the content "expeditiously" but there's no specific timeline. In practice, most platforms respond within 24-72 hours. If they don't, they lose their safe harbor protection.
