 AudioMicro is the first music library to say yes! Everyone who gets unlinked on Feb 20th by YouTube because they don't meet the 4K 1K rule will still be able to use the AudioMicro library in your videos and live streams as long as you are still a freedom partner. In case you didn't know about the 4K 1K rule, click that I. AudioMicro and Epidemic Sound and Position Music are the three main libraries we offer to you freedom family and I've reached out to all three. AudioMicro is just the first to confirm that they will continue the blanket license that allows everyone in freedom to use their music library for free as long as they are a partner. What is AudioMicro? Click that I to see this video behind me which I made a long time ago but it shows exactly the benefits of AudioMicro and how to use their site and how to download the music. So click it and enjoy some George classic episodes. I'd love to hear from you what you think. Am I a better host of the George show now than I was back then? I would love to know. Tell me down there in the comments below. Because YouTube will unlink many of you on February 20th, my fear was that the music libraries would consider you no longer freedom partners and no longer allowed to use their music for free. I'm still talking and explaining what this means to Epidemic Sound and Position Music and AudioMicro is the first one to confirm that they will let you continue using it. As long as you confirm that you still want to be a freedom partner. What does that mean? Well for those of you who get unlinked by YouTube on February 20th, we will need to provide a way for you to confirm you still want to be with freedom. We're thinking of doing this in the Freedom Dashboard where there would be a confirm I want to stay partnered with freedom even though YouTube doesn't allow me to stay in your CMS and if you confirm by clicking that button then you will continue to get access to AudioMicro and hopefully Epidemic Sound and Position Music as well. There will be other benefits that we want to give you by confirming your partnership with freedom after February 20th, assuming you get unlinked. More on that soon. What about new channels that want to join Freedom after February 20th but can't because YouTube doesn't let them because they don't meet the 4K 1K rule. We also want to extend licenses to all the music libraries and other perks to new channels looking to join Freedom after February 20th but we still have to get confirmation from everybody about how that will work. So right now we have like the Freedom Class 1 which is the channels that will remain in Freedom and partnered with Freedom after February 20th. The Class 2 are the channels that will get unlinked by YouTube but before that they were with Freedom and so as long as you confirm you still want to stay with Freedom after getting unlinked we're trying to make everything available like it was like it is today that's Class 2 and Class 3 are the channels that will want to join Freedom after February 20th. We're not in our CMS before February 20th and we want to as well give those channels the same perks as if they were with Freedom before February 20th. So don't worry about the details I'm just explaining to you what I have to negotiate with other companies and explain these different classes of channels that are intending wanting to partner with Freedom and how we can offer services to help them grow faster and as I get more confirmations about all of these three classes then I will make videos announcing it. With Audio Micro they've confirmed that all these channels all three classes will have access to that music library and I'm waiting for confirmation from the others. Now let's read some of your deserving comments Freedom Family. The first comment is by Furno the Knight who wrote hey George in a previous comment on one of your videos I expressed my concern about how we may potentially lose some of our music resources hence the subject of this video and why I chose this comment to be first when we are demonetized and unlinked from Freedom how will it affect our previous videos so that's a very good question when you leave Freedom or get unlinked or for whatever reason lose our partnership all the videos using music that you uploaded or livestreamed while you were partnered with Freedom are safe they will not get any monetization issues copyright strikes nothing bad will happen because you use that music legitimately while you were partnered with Freedom it's like a forever license however if you leave Freedom and you upload new videos using the music that's in the Freedom library like Audio Micro Position Music Epidemic Sound Music Factory then you may get a monetization claim you will never get a strike but the money may get redirected to the artist whose music that belongs to if you do that after leaving Freedom so I hope that helps explain that it's completely safe to use the music and you're completely free to leave Freedom and not worry about it for the videos you made while with Freedom I understand that Freedom is working on preserving these resources but I don't recall that you guys have come up with a solution and I want to be prepared for the worst okay so we have a solution at least for Epidemic or Audio Micro so far I've currently stopped using these resources in my current videos that I've been creating until I have a better understanding about the situation there is another music library that I just mentioned called Music Factory the channel that you see behind me this is the music Freedom owns outright that is completely safe and free to use in all your videos and live streams click that I to see that channel and that's also completely safe to use even after you leave Freedom of course as I just mentioned you may get a monetization claim if you upload new videos after leaving Freedom using Music Factory Music but we guarantee it's completely safe to use and we can make that guarantee because we own it outright there's no other third party involved in those music claims Furno the Knight also wrote will we be able to access the Freedom dashboard or the Freedom forums when we smaller channels are cut off after February 20th absolutely yes the whole point of the Freedom family is we all help each other grow together as a family what kind of family would we be if you if we cut you off from resources like the forums in the dashboard just because YouTube has a new rule of how big you have to be before you can make money on YouTube wouldn't be very family friendly would it so yes everyone who's part of the Freedom family will still have complete access to the forums as well as the Freedom dashboard as long as you confirm your intention to be a Freedom partner and that will be a button we will create in the dashboard and you may need to click it periodically to make sure you still confirm your Freedom partner if you're not in our CMS and we may have to do this just to satisfy the requirements of different companies that are offering services to Freedom partners for free no that it's not free we pay for it it's coming from Freedom's money to give you these free services so I hope you appreciate the value that we're providing to help you grow lav pranks talked about crypto that the C thing that will help you grow faster that we will be launching very soon he said hey George nice video the crypto thing is a really good concept I am in crypto for past four years and I would love to make content to educate others on crypto this is something I mentioned in a previous video click that I to see it where I asked everyone how many of where I asked how many of you would like to contribute to the crypto family with videos guides blogs any kind of educational or community services that can help the crypto family grow as we've been growing the Freedom family that's what lav pranks is talking about pretty soon I'll create a Google form where you will be able to submit I pretty soon I will pretty soon I will create a Google form where you will be able to submit your ideas on how you would like to contribute to the crypto family so prepare that ahead of time now links to either blogs that you've written videos you've created or community services like discord chat servers that you manage around crypto I would love to see them when I ask you for them later so lav pranks continued by writing crypto will definitely make free money well it's not free money it's it's money by using your computer power so it's electricity costs there's some costs to making that money crypto will definitely make money for people who have hardware to do mining specifically you need a modern gpu like a gtx 1070 or 1080 or nvidia rx 5 470 or 580 to uh to make money more than the cost of electricity and I had one crazy idea is hey how about freedom giveaway 10 000 gtx 1070s to deserving freedom family members who are willing to uh run our software to do the crypto mining that i'll be talking about later for a year is that something you would be open to tell me down there in the comments below again right now it's just an idea because even finding 10 000 gpus is a problem these days because everyone's buying them and it's hard to get that much supply in one place but I think we can do it if we have enough demand love to know lav pranks continued love to all freedom family you are the best guys note for those who do not meet the 4k1k rule just do and give your best exactly I am sure you guys would cross this requirement do

sections for each of those subjects on community.tm check it out yesterday yesterday lap yesterday laugh pranks helped someone on the forum global chat whose youtube channel had videos from up to four years and regularly making but it was not growing he did the correct thing thumbnails were good playlist added and so on so you have a lot of good people like laugh pranks helping you on the forums if you just go there and ask john robinson wrote I don't touch crypto I won't be earning from it I even made a video saying about bitcoin mining be immoral I'm curious why you would say that John Robinson crypto mining is verifying financial transactions and getting paid for it think of a bank when you send a wire or money to other people there's a fee the bank collects it for verifying or facilitating that money transfer that's exactly what you're doing by mining cryptocurrency except instead of banks it's crypto that you are confirming it's a very legitimate business I think I don't think there's anything immoral about it but I'd love to understand your perspective and other people like John who may feel that way tell me down there in the comments below let's have a healthy discussion is crypto mining healthy moral good for the world or the opposite love to know Kaiser herdson wrote lol I don't want to subject the poor freedom staff to my content in yesterday's video I

don't feature as many comments now as you used to do earlier and we want old George back well I think I feature a good number of comments every day I don't want to make the episodes too long if you notice the videos I'm making now are about 10 minutes or more in length I don't want to subject you to too much of George and you get bored and leave early in the video but what do you guys think should these videos be 20 minutes long where I feature more of your comments tell me down there in the comments below and I think that's a good note on which to end this video master at it you're one of our longest commenters and you always use these timestamps which I love that tell me exactly what point in the video you are commenting about I would encourage all of you to to do the same so everyone who's reading the comment can know where in the video you're commenting since we're just ending this let's finish these two guys overrated tv wrote would be awesome for support as close to 50 subscribers so you're a small channel that are looking is looking to grow I recommend collaborating on the forums go to community.tm and introduce yourself if you haven't already and creepy monkey head game wrote I'm starting to really get scared about the 4k1k thing I call it 4k1k because I think it's harder to get 4,000 watch hours in the last 12 months than it is to gain a thousand subscribers hence I use the term 4k1k I don't care that I monetized I care that I'm able to schedule and I have music while I'm partnered with freedom well that's great because we're trying to make sure you keep getting music now as far as being able to schedule uploads are you saying that you won't be able to do scheduled uploads if youtube removes you from the ypp I actually don't know about that is that true I'll have to look it up but in the meantime if anyone else knows confirm or deny down there in the comments below whether you're going to lose the ability to do scheduled uploads if you leave if you remove from the ypp youtube partner program and I have 23 days to increase 800 subscribers and I'm hoping to get with someone who would explain exactly what will happen when I'm on linked I just I think unlinked I just want to make sure that the music that I was licensed to in partner with freedom won't get I was won't get lost I imagine and that I would still be able to schedule uploads so definitely the music won't get lost that's completely fine as I mentioned earlier in this episode and you shouldn't worry because even if you don't reach that 4k1k threshold on Feb 20th if you reach it a week later or a month later then you'll be back as you were before so it's not like uh if you don't make Feb 20th it's gone forever it's just it'll continue to be that way um you know for as long as we know youtube now you might ask what if I shrink what if I I'm at the 4k1k on Feb 20th but then a week later I drop below a thousand subscribers will youtube remove me from the ypp so we asked youtube about this and they confirmed that it will not be like on a daily basis that they're checking channels it'll be periodic so after Feb 20th maybe a month later or three months later or six months later we don't know what the period is yet but at some period they will again check the channels on that day and remove channels from ypp that don't meet the requirements but I'll let you know as soon as I know I also know it's not going to be just that day because you know how subscribers especially fluctuate up and down youtube told us they're going to look at like a running average for that period of time let's say it's three months if you had an average of a thousand subscribers or more during that three month period that's what would be used as the criteria for determining whether you meet the 4k1k rule not oh you're at 998 subscribers on that day you don't meet it you're out it's it's going to be uh an average over that period of time hope this helps guys and keep remembering we're all here to help each other grow together we are a family and never give up because if you do give up that's the only way you're actually guaranteed to fail so don't give up hashtag never give up we never gave up we've had a lot of rocky roads on the road from four years ago when we started to today and there were many times where I thought it's going to end youtube is making big changes that will end to freedom but it didn't happen and I never want you to give up because youtube isn't here trying to make life impossible for smaller channels they're just trying to protect their brand and address all of the bad PR they've received around content quality so this is their platform guys we are thankful I am thankful I hope you are thankful that youtube exists and we need to help protect youtube so it is a healthy ecosystem that can thrive and grow forever hopefully uh and this is just part of that business of improving content quality to help restore confidence in youtube advertisers or in advertisers to restore confidence to advertise on the platform um and I for one think we're up for the challenge bring it on let's do this let's beat the 4k 1k rule together as a family who am I I am boppa george george son pie and many other many other names you the beautiful freedom family has given me I am george ceo and founder of freedom for freedom and
