Incredible, the yodel's worth jumped from 3 to 7 figures once the artist's lawyers evened the playing field!<p>This story reminds me of the Nike logo one, quote Wikipedia: <i>For her services, the company paid her $35 ($206 in 2015 dollars), citing that she worked 17.5 hours on creating the Swoosh</i>.

That yodel was a pretty good bit of branding. It certainly sticks in your head. I'll probabbly never forget it.

I'm curious about IP protection on a 3.5 second performance, comprising 3 notes.<p>What would appropriate "fair use" look like? And evidently, the fact that Yahoo made it their branding was something legally different than a local performance. Odd system we have.

I can see why he'd be mad. If you were around the Bay Area in 1999/2000, that yodel was unescapable. He deserved to be paid.

(I will always pronounce Yahoo yay-hoo, and nobody can stop me. yay-hoo.com — it's my own little strike against the beast.)
