The document discusses how YouTube handles copyrighted music in videos. It explains that YouTube uses a Content ID system to automatically detect copyrighted content and then allows copyright owners to either monetize matching videos by running ads, mute the audio, or block the video entirely. It warns that using copyrighted music without permission can get a video "grounded" or blocked. It then provides some methods YouTube creators can use to avoid copyright claims, such as using royalty-free music, altering the speed or pitch of songs, or adhering to fair use guidelines for non-profit, educational works.

Copyright infringement is tracked via
Content ID. YouTube's algorithms are
always improving. YouTube launches a
virtual police force to detect for unlawful
uses of registered content once an artist
registers with Content ID.

➢Track the video’s viewership statistics without taking further action.
➢Monetize your video by running advertisements (the copyright owner gets the
money, not you).
➢Mute your video (your video will still be available, but no sound will play).
➢Block your video (your video becomes unavailable, and YouTube may penalize
your channel).

1. Obtain Music From Royalty-free Music Sites
Some music libraries agree to grant royalty-free licenses.
These services allow you to pay a one-time charge to utilize
their music and then be done with it.
2. Changing The Speed/Pitch Of The Music
If you only use music and videos that you’ve created
yourself, you’ll not have to worry about copyright as you’ll be
the owner and for your own content, you set the rules.
3. Adhere To The 'Fair Use' Regulation.
If you're producing a fully non-profit film for educational
reasons or anything like, fair use may be OK, but after you
strike the monetize button, good luck claiming it.
