"The Orchard" is treacherous. They've exploited a Youtube loophole and take the contents of legitimate reissue CDs of historic recordings, upload them (when they are most certainly NOT the company that released them), then claim copyright on the historic recordings.
Further, other "companies" in the EU (namely, Greece) with dubious names have repackaged in-print CDs of historic recordings, uploaded them to YouTube (and iTunes, Spotify, etc) under different compilation titles, and claimed copyright on those, too. Those are ALSO often "distributed" by The Orchard.
If you need further information, feel free to contact me privately. This has happened to myself, and many others who have in-print CDs of historic recordings on the market.
