And what about al the radio stations who broadcast loads of music to the public all day and the haven't paid for the CD either? I agree it has gone crazy especially if it is just in the background music or someone singing along to a song. For someone like me, who isn't a good speaker and has nothing interesting to say, copyright could very well be the end of my channel, every on of my videos I have had that same email about third party content, it belongs to someone else etc.
It is probably because of the internet itself that they go so far because for a long time people have been able to get albums on line for free. For example we used to have a store here called our price, they are all closed down, and a lot of HMV stores seem to have closed down here, the internet is killing music sales. I know what your talking background music, but I disagree, if I have bought the CD I should be bale to use that song in part of my videos.
It's too bad that you singing a song is considered violation. It's not like you are trying to make money from it. One day that whole thing is gonna bite the music industry in the ass. I already hardly shop at music stores thanks to iTunes or Amazon. It's true that things I hear on YouTube have influenced me to buy something. Even some old songs I never heard I would find them on Itunes, Amazon or find the actual CD or even vinyl!. What happens when the music industry loses even that?
totally agree i have one friend whos 1 strike away from being terminated bcuz of copyright just for giving his opinion on a movie trailer its not like he put ads all over it & making money off of it.plus I have 2 friends who got their old accounts terminated cuz of copyright & they werent making money off of it.Screw youtubes stupid copyright claims.
Okay seriously wouldnt that be seen as a good thing ? LIke youtube really got their head out of their ass for a minute they'd see that watching shows and listening to music on here actually make ppl wanna buy the cds or buy the movies or shows on here that in reality that's a good thing . But I guess Youtube is too full of retards to see that they're blowing a chance for themselves . Sighhssss idiots .
I agree... But even if you play music on a picture slide show... That should be fine still. First off, if someone is going to steal the music, and transfer it over to a disc, a.) the sound quality will most likely be shit.. and b.) I get about 120 views per vid... Do they really think 120 people are going to "steal" that song? Even if it's music I PURCHACED???? If I purchased that music, I should have the right to use it. I'm not selling it!!!
@mbyr31 You don't know how many artists I came across on youtube, just because people used them as background some on unrelated video. I don't listen to the radio and I hardly ever watch music shows on TV. Internet is the only way I come across new music. If the record companies do block the conventient ways for me to listen the song online, I will not bother with it. And the record companies also block videos from their artist channels in my country....
@mbyr31 ... like what the hell? Is my small central european country not good enough for you? Well, my money is probably also not enough for you either.
I think the good days of internet are over. Youtube is now being commercialized, I am afraid that in no time they will insert commercials before the videos or in the middle of them...:(
@venushalley I really think you took my comment out of context... Or, I'm taking yours out of context. I never said anything bad about any ones money or country. I was simply making a statement in regards to the fact that we should be able to use music in our vids. I feel as if YouTube has become too commercialized as well! I think it's ridiculous the "laws" we have to obey with to be able to put up a 3 minute vid.
It was at the fact that the "official" channel do block their content in certain regions (outside the USA). I actually uploaded a video and it was blocked particulary in Germany according to the info... just because i used music to a slideshow...
I agree it is a pain BUT... You are stealing music when you are doing it. It is wrong and should not be allowed unless you pay for the copyrights. Its not going too far because musicians work long and hard for it and they need to be payed.
ok, you gave credit to the band, right? you made sure pple did not know it wasn't your song, right? then it shouldn't be a copyright violation. If i made a vid with music, i would make sure i would give credit to the author and band that originally played it or w/e. it should not be a copyright violation if pple do that
they probably couldn't tell you were the one singing over it since you sound so good.lol but i think it is crazy for them to do that. i think they don't even watch the video ,i think they just go by the title of your video and if it has a copyrighted song they delete it or whatever.
THAT IS BULLSHIT!! they really are getting very pissy about copyright!!
I've had videos muted and disabled for 10 seconds of a song!! One of them was a video celebrating my 2 years on youtube... isn't that ironic? LOL
And there's another guy on here, rulebritannia1991, who made a video of his room, and YT muted it because of the music he was playing in the background.
I wouldn't be surprised if WMG banned their music from being played on the radio.
I also agree 100% about what your saying as well. Youtube is ruining it for everybody and I agree. I used to think youtube was for the people by the people. Its just a corperate bs site designed to please other corperations. The only reason I am still on it is cause of the great people on it that enjoy my vids but youtube is really pushing it Craig. Thanks for this video, DITTO 100%
it used to be for the people, by the people. But not since Google got their tentacles around it.
Google pretty much owns the world now.
I would seriously move to another such site, but I allready got so many friends on here, and this site is very well known. There's fuck all on other sites, like dailymotion, vimeo, etc. And metacafe reviews every video uploaded, and they only post it if they like it. Kinda like the soviet union.
Yep I kept telling people it was a bad idea for Google to buy youtube. But some people kept saying, no no, it will be good, they have a good track record, they dont screw the people. Oh well, I hate to say I told you so! Youtube sucks...EPIC FAIL
I could understand it if the user was a partner and they were making revenue off of the video with a copyright song in it. Like you said, if anything, it's free advertising for the artist. It is ridiculous, I agree with you.
i agree 100%. i've seen good honest youtube users who simply just threw some backround music in a slide show and they got the video muted. its ridiculous!!!!!! its so annoying!!!

Genesis should have just removed the music video or any video using the actual song instead, especially if people uploaded them without permission.
