Milan Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 I am about to make a video of my newest MOC, and I since I don't make them very often and upload them to YT, I have a question... If I want to have some music in the background of my Lego video, do I have some limits...I mean I saw before on YouTube that some video plays without any music, because the music was deleted by YouTube for "copyrights". I am asking this because I want for my video to have, lets say some music from a Matrix or Terminator, or some other Blockbuster... How can I know which music is forbidden? Thanks! Quote
Siegfried Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 All music that you don't create yourself is forbidden. Whether it gets deleted or not all depends on the vague interpretation of the "fair use" rule and how diligent the copyright holders are. Quote
Daniel Williams Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 Good question, my guess is that mostly anything owned by the top music companies like Fueled by Ramen and other labels are the ones that get mostly disabled, but for instance like little known musicians aren't under that restriction like the song called The Dream of a Normal Death from Doctor Who, that seems to work for some vids.

prateek Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 (edited) I think it's just Universal (UMG) and Sony Music (BMG) Edited June 3, 2010 by prateek Quote
Spyder Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 I know all the videos I've seen with music in them have the usual little pop-up add replaced with the links to buy the song on Amazon and iTunes. So maybe as long as you some how put that there, (I don't know how, I don't have a youtube account) you might be fine. Quote
Sisco Posted June 3, 2010 Posted June 3, 2010 I recently made a video on YouTube (it's horrible... Don't look it up! ) and I used an orchestra song ( don't recall the name), and the little thing to buy the song pops up automaticly. Whew, that was a mouthfull to get across that small point... Quote
Big Cam Posted June 4, 2010 Posted June 4, 2010 I think it would be wise to just use the music you want and then give it proper credit, hoping that the amazon thing pops up. Quote

I was thinking that, but was also afraid I will be inviting them to cut the music...nevertheless I will credit the music in description of the video and put something less known. Thanks, Cam Quote
