Nintendo has removed a variety of music from YouTube, primarily from the Zelda series.
Nintendo is often relentless with issues surrounding copyright, regardless of if it is fan games, YouTube videos, or whatever else it deems damaging to its IP. The company has now decided to block the entire
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time soundtrack from YouTube, in addition to other Nintendo soundtracks from its library of games.

GilvaSunner is a video game soundtrack archivist and does not monetize any of his videos to avoid this kind of situation.
