Flamenco Dostoevsky - literary text used to obfuscate copyright content?

Image
  YouTube - a flamenco guitar video, with bizarre subtitles from Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky (!). Whilst there is great admiration for Dosteoevsky, and in particular his well-known work of the reckless murderer who commits a crime for no *material* gain, and possibly simply for the *meaning* gained by seeking punishment and so some suffering and discipline - it is not at all clear why this text would be appearing on a Spanish flamenco YouTube video... ...unless of course, the well-beyond-copyright text of Dostoevsky is being used to hide the image or other copyrighted materials... a Crime indeed!
