I’ve also had success removing embedded language audio tracks from a file that had 5+ languages from the original Blu-ray. Each language was over 1GB/per movie for a specific offending collection.
All the websites that facilitate allowing the little guy to attempt to compete in a fair market will automatically send the little guy’s copyrighted works into datasets for things like training LLMs. Companies will pop up to sell you the “service” of removing your work from training sets, but your work was already automatically re-sold to secondary dataset brokers. Every work the little guy creates will have to compete with the 10,000 “AI” “authored” works that came out during the time period it took to create the work.
