Music and you tube question...

[Fish_tracker]

Hey guys perhaps someone could help me.

How do you guys put songs that are copyrighted on a you tube video ? I seem to always have to settle for 3 rd party matched music but the selection is crap.  Any tips would be great !! Thanks. FT

I got a few tunes in the Corel VideoX5 editing program. This program has the ability to "Set Mood" (subtract and/or raise and lower the volume to the various instruments), and it creates a different sound. So it is like having 100's available.

Otherwise, there are sites where you can buy the rights to royalty-free music. I haven't ponied up yet, so can't report on this.

I guess I just throw whatever music on my videos and then state in the information what the song and artist is and that I do not own it. And then acknowledge it and it's fine. I've heard with the "matched 3rd party content" it's sometimes unable to view on mobile and in certain countries but I haven't heard much from my subscribers and they still get views so I don't seem to change it.

x2  If you make a reference to a website within the context of your video, even with the proper accreditations it can be blocked completely. Led Zeppelin songs will definately be flagged, some companies are very anal about copyright infringements. Also Youtube does not support ipads and mobile device platforms

What do you mean they don't support it? I have viewed countless videos on my mobile phones, the only difference I've noticed is that the Annotations don't show up with mobile devices like they would on your computer.

He meant if you use copywrited music, many times it will be blocked on mobile devices.  Record companies want you to buy their music, not listen to it for free on youtube.

TY, yes.

Gotchya, yeah I was aware that sometimes when it says "matched 3rd party content" it's unavailable on mobile devices.

Where is the free music there?

Actually, there are a few tunes for free on that site. The same ones that come with the Corel program. But I suspect as more people start to use them, and since Americans have the attention span of a gnat, they will become boring rather quickly...
