Nintendo: see, now that's where you're wrong

[jdavis]

This is the first time I've seen someone describe the spirit of what fair use is supposed to entail eloquently. It's understandable a company wouldn't want you reposting their music and just getting paid for that... that's obviously copywright infringement. This, on the other hand, helps the describe the many cases where DMCAs are filed, wherein the music or IP in question is not being abused in this way. I don't think that companies even file the DMCA against transformative works on purpose much of the time (as far as I'm aware, automated systems are responsible for the majority of flagging), it's a growing pain that Youtube and Companies have tried to maintain balance on... some decidedly more successfully than others.

[scottradinsky]

really interesting! also, why don’t video game companies just allow content creators to use their footage from their game if it’s free publicity?

[CliffordStarks]

Thanks for the tips as always brother! Also your channel is growing so quickly, congratulations!!👍

[ThisIsTechToday]

So good! It's so much easier to just sign up for one of those music services! Not worth the stress! Also, IN ONE MONTH your growth has increased so much. Holy cow,

[TubeTechie]

Another great video Ian!!! Always superb information💪🏽

[Odenmeepius]

Love the content. Question when using older video games as a playthrough is that also under copyright if I record me playing and voice over the text boxes?

[Jacob_Leiter]

Fantastic. It's most helpful, everything get's brighter. Thank you so much for all advices.

[Protochu]

Hey Ian, love the video its super informative!
Side note: you've probably already answered this but whats the name of the background music?

[Syncourt]

Thanks a lot for the breakdown though I have a question; Is it ok to extract a game's licensed music (not created by the developers, but normally allowed to be streamed in gameplay videos) and then place it over another portion of a video featuring that game? For example, what if I extracted the licensed menu music and placed the audio over gameplay? Seems there's a bit of a grey area nobody knows about when it comes to licensed music that is not owned by the devs and what we can do with it.

[dslrdave]

Excellent piece of infos you got there Ian. Perfect Job on that one !

[paulineenewman]

Another great episode Ian. Always informative and easy to understand.

[healthyvoicetips]

I like YOUR background music in this video. Great tips for those who play video games with music!

[joshmoxey.]

Subscribed! I've been waiting for a channel like you. Creative law gets confusing sometimes and you explain things very well, Ian.

[shakacat]

I enjoy listening to your videos u make them so understandable even though I have don't do any of this stuff, u make them fun, thank you again 👏 👏 🐈

[DalDhaliwalOfficial]

Great video Ian. Thank you for the tips. Very informative as always.

[newacidplanet]

Great! I am constantly learning reading studying researching this endless area. Despite being a label with copyright holdings of master recordings I still get META / Instagram blocking me or emailing me with Copyright Violation. And so I must become aware of it all, in order to ensure everything I post or make public conforms to all the appropriate laws out there and to ensure my artists music as well as my own is protected. Thank you.

[maddycorzine]

Love it!!! Great music in this vid..I’m rockin

[beastrip]

Thanks man, great Video and always great info!

[OrbitalObs]

Awesome video and a nice breakdown of a sensitive topic. Commenting, critiquing, talking over when background music appears (Example: Factorio) is a method I automatically use without actually realizing it. Great tips overall, thank you!
