So what is happening is we are doing a re-upload with a new distribution channel. We have a new partnership that we have to… but it was supposed to be very smooth, but that couldn’t happen.

He further clarified that the removal was part of a transition between two distribution partners, which had not gone as seamlessly as expected.
