You are actually making Pentatonix lose money, as you said you DON'T OWN THE RIGHTS to the songs!! If Pentatonix hasn't put the songs on the Internet, it means that they want to earn money on it first, and then, when the time comes, they will put it on the Internet.
All the people that are watching this video are, in a way stealing, because watching vids on Youtube is FREE and so they haven't paid Pentatonix to listen to their album!!!
Even if I have seen the title, I haven't listened to the video because I love Pentatonix and I respect their decisions (and I hope you do too).
And so I kindly ask you to take all of your videos of their album off this site.
Thank you, Helena (and probably Pentatonix too).
