Watch out makers of ski edits! FCC is on the prowl...
"A copyright owner has claimed it owns some or all of the audio content in your video skiierman promo. The audio content identified in your video is California Love by 2Pac. We regret to inform you that your video has been blocked from playback due to a music rights issue."
thats youtube. fcc has nothing to do with any of that. copyright owners, aka big corporations, pay companies to police youtube for copyright infringement. once, youtube is informed of a copyright infringement they remove it.
i got one from the marley people once for an edit i had on brightcove...has anyone faced any repercusions from it yet besides just it getting taken down?
just use songs from small little unknown bands. they dont have big companies prowling around for them and your getting their name out for them a bit. as long as your not making money off it i dont think it would be a problem at all
quick solution! do as they did in days old and feature the name of the song, artist and record label (usually website) and they will usually look at it and say, hmm respect paid, and let it slide.
I think all my videos got deleted from brightcove. not to mention i can't even log in anymore. ASSHOLES. For now I dont think any other videos have been delteed. klnock on wood
Do film companies get the rights to the songs they use? Or is crediting the songs at the end enough? I dont see how a little edit gets busted but not a big time film...
they must get rights or no producer would ever even consider starting to make copies because its highly illegal to use a song in a video that you sell to make a profit.
