Ok so how about we flip COPPA onto the copyright claimers?<br>Basically, if they fail to copyright a video fairly, then they have to pay the $40,000 fine. Hell knows they can pay for it anyways.

Remember that guy that walked past a cafe playing copyrighted music and got copyrighted


like any youtube that talks about drugs (not showing consumption, only education) will tell you, it's not only the copyright system... youtube as a whole is working against many creators and many don't even see it as "broken"... and i think this too, it's totally working according to plan.


I actually got a copyright claim on a video where I made the background music myself from scratch once. #GoodTimes.


or you can go the route of making a weird track yourself, and claiming your own video.<br>therefore you still get at least part of the revenue

Category: Education
Hey, he wasn’t lying, even Youtube calls this educational


You should probably also mention or write somewhere that a good resource for copyright free stuff would be public domain stuff on free music archive, pixabay etc


For some reason yesterday the Youtube Algorithm decided to recommend me your Dale Earnhardt video and I decided to watch it. I deeply enjoyed the video and finished it not noticing that it was 50+ minutes long. I then decided to watch your Spongebob video, which was also stellar. Then your part 1 of this series caught my attention, but I convinced myself not to watch it because I knew that I would immediately want to watch part 2. But considering that part 1 had already been released for 2+ months - and a quick glance at your infrequent (no offence) upload schedule - I assumed I would be waiting a while for the sequel to roll around. So I was pleasantly surprised to see this video being released today. I thought "What luck! A mere day after discovering this great Youtuber, I am blessed with the follow-up to a series I am interested in with no painstaking gestation period!". So you can imagine my heartbreak when I discovered that a part 3 is in the works. I implore you to take the time necessary to complete this series so as to retain the standard of quality throughout, just remember to wake me up when it has reached its close. (I did have to use a thesaurus at least 5 times writing this comment).


Gotta love ur music taste and references. All the prog giants.

About music, I'm curious how you can find whole un-edited songs and even entire ALBUMS on this site that were uploaded over a DECADE ago.


Part of the problem was that the trust in youtube becoming a thing was that only creative people would upload to it.  People who had an instinct to own (or have permission for) the content of the video they upload.  YT never enforced this.  Now that it's become easier to commit copyright infringement than to upload original work, and VERY easy to make money off of frequently-uploaded copyright infringement, that's the norm.

Only now is it being enforced that "Hey, committing copyright infringement is bad" are people saying "How DARE you call me out on something I've been doing wrong for more than half my life!  How will I feed my kids?!"


I was just about to finish a argumentive essay about YouTube copy right for a collage class. Great timing.

In all seriousness though I love your videos. You actually inspired me to write about the shitty copy right system.


Dude you and Internet Historian should do a senior capstone program at the Medill School of Journalism, I'm not even kidding.


i watched the entire joker movie that was just uploaded into bits and put together into a playlist lol


About 10 years ago I made a trailer of Casino Royale entirely using Simpsons footage over the trailer audio.  It was hit with a copyright claim and my account was permanently banned after another similar video I made.  How things have changed...


Making a youtube video about how to avoid copyright on youtube is like talking about drugs in a police station

COPYRIGHT LAWS VIOLATE HUMAN RIGHTS.

We should abolish all copyright laws.


I've enganged in inordinate indulgences of copyright smuggling.


Nintendo actually still does take down videos of their games. They haven't stopped.<br>They just do it less often, and usually for cases like if somebody shows a mod or an exploit in the game. Still shitty to do.

A VERY old song I upload for people to help me with finding the game it belongs to got claimed by a guy that stole the song and used it in his own music.
That's fair. I mean I uploaded C64 game music, which you can argue is bad, but the claimer didn't even credit the original theme.

Link; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAG11RcYtGc


You said “ah ah ah you click out of this ad...” right as I was about to. Good shit Emp.


21:20 “rarely will you find a video game song that gets copyright claimed.”
Nintendo:


I got once got a copyright claim for my own song I made in 2006.  And someone used my song in 2011 on YouTube. With out me knowing. Then I reused the 2006 original. On YouTube on in 2018 and had it striked. Then I had proof it was my song with a save file on the final edit when I was making the music. Back in 2004-8


People smuggled music that's illegal in the states to youtube. They just put a short clip of different audio before the song to dodge detection. Was the most impressive music smuggle I saw, but it's possible they could end up doing time for that one. Not just copyright claims, he could legit do time in a state prison for that. I could elaborate on why it's illegal, but then everyone would find out what it is from Google and watch the videos and/or report them.


6:04
I genuinely didn't see anything strange about putting fruit footage on screen, until I realized what you were talking about.


Seriously love the videos man can’t wait to watch this one


I found that putting semi-translucent black bars over the video tends to protect it from getting blocked.

6:35, obviously playing, recording, and sharing video game gameplay on the internet is copyrighted. How do you not know? do you not realize that for example in Minecraft the very textures in the game are copyrighted images, and all blocks in the game use those copyrighted images, and Minecraft is full of those blocks, which means that your screen is literally full of copyrighted Minecraft textures. Also a scenes from games may have visual backgrounds, which guess what, are copyrighted images.
Any and all cutscenes in games are literally like watching a movie, and guess what they are copyrighted, so of course gaming is copyrighted.

But I am not saying that it should not be allowed to be recorded and shared on the internet, what I am saying is that it is just barely allowed.


If you do a rearrangement of a song its completely fine. I have some on my channel and they are 100% legally owned by me, even tho their is some music from Zelda for example. (feel free to use them as u wish, crediting me would be great)


I know someone who took an entire movie and chopped it up into two minute pieces and uploaded it into a playlist. That's kind of creative, right?


Has anyone tested changing the video speed? YouTube has a built in speed button, so we could speed it up or slow it down on playback


“Most game creators don’t care to copyright claim their music*

“Most game creators don’t care to copyright claim their music*

And yet ProfasiaGaming is still around despite posting footage of the final bosses of games before they even come out internationally.

Entire channels have fallen from Nintendo's music claiming wrath.

How many uploads of God Shattering Star must fall before Nintendo lets us listen to our jams

They seem to have mostly given up because of the sheer volume of people posting the OST anyway, not to mention the “this is definitely not” videos which are probably slightly less detectable. Honestly just downloading the soundtrack is the best, as I soon found out.

Nintendo is known as being hostile towards video creators.


On my public channel I had created a terrible song using Mixcraft and its included loops. I then got a copyright claim because some equally talentless hack published a song using the same loops.

You cant even win when you legally own the licenses to the audio youre using.


I cant get over how the guy making the announcement on his personal website saying they have a years notice sounds like the exact plot to hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy


That Pulp Fiction claim is ridiculous. I had a claim from the Washington State Marching Band's 2016 performance of a Sousa song. The video was uploaded in 2010.


I was waiting a while for part 2 to come out since your first part was really educational. But you are misleading people a lot. In the beginning you are saying things like "copyright of images hasn't been enforced a lot" which is 100% false, and also implying that saving a image from a browser is somehow violating copyright. Copyright law does not affect private use; so that previous statement makes no sense. You also mislead more in the video when talking about video-game footage, implying that companies don't own the content portrayed in a youtuber's video. In reality, the youtuber owns the digital file that they recorded; which even then, is not freely made as it uses multiple pieces of software that have permissive licenses or something similar to a permissive license. But in order to post the content online, you still need to be within copyright intent of the people who own the copyright. These are all obvious points if you have read copyright law. What questions would be more relevant might be like, what abstracts allow us to link copyright law with various media formats. Like how can an arbitrary law apply differently to a book versus a online video, etc. Also, you could point out the biggest issue, which is youtube's handling of copyright law isn't to protect YOUR rights, but to rather keep themselves from getting into legal trouble, and how they can let other companies piggyback them to gain profits, like how UMG has been doing in the past year. And basically content creators can't do anything about it when their profits get claimed, even if the claim is not legal/done in a legal way.


also, ALL HAIL VALVE, ONE OF THE CHILLEST GAMING COMPANIES ON EARTH! YOU BUY THE GAME YOU CAN DO WHATEVER, INFINITE MODS, SONG RIPS, ANYTHING GOES!


This reminds how screwed Youtube is. My boyfriend got his music copyright claim WHICH HE MADE, USING HIS OWN STUFF, FROM SCRATCH. He took the video since he's not going to let some b1tch get money off of his work. Soundcloud remains his only channel i guess.


I used the yt audio library on one of my old videos because the music that was in my video was horrible Quality, worked great for a couple years until all of the sudden the song isn't available on yt audio library and I got a copyright strike


90% of youtube channels are a lawsuit waiting to happen


<b>That intro really says a lot about our society.</b>

*That intro really says a lot about our society.*


so the only solution is....

I got a copy-claim on my IWKTG vids because the intro was a parody of ukigumo (which has copyrights.)

Although in this case I'm actually happy it got copyclaimed. My vids aren't monetized.


If you're going to go the route of using VG Music, I'd recommend staying away from Nier: Automata's Soundtrack. Those songs actually DO get claimed.


But literal song thieves and art thieves can get viral and end up signing in with big-paying contracts.

What the hell is this? How is this necessary? Mad respect for anyone who decides to make a career out of this, just constantly hoping they can make someone’s day a little better and manage to get paid for it instead of being ruined by an unfeeling cooperation.

Is there a growing anti-corp sentiment in wider society? I feel like YouTube fans and video game fans hate their guts, but I hope it’s not just limited to some countries


I got claimed for a VHS logo that had like 5 seconds of a super distorted and muffled Final Count Down. They System works in mysterious ways……


16:10 just a little detail i noticed: the audio wave shown in the video is the exact naration he's speaking at that moment


Yo im not even joking the ad was fun to watch. Good quality stuff man. Good job!


Never knew spiff was in something major, surely he couldve found an exploit to avoid it


I just have this dread where an AI working for an individual fights against an AI working for a large company to find alteration methods so that youre AI can punch trough theire AI-s filtering system. And at some random moment you get a mail from youre AI you forget already cuz youre a dumb human that it found a version and is ready to present you the alteration and be aproved by you, hoping to maybe get a few extra ram for its baby AI its programing that one day might be more then IT and can work for a school profect as a Heizenberg dampener for a laser lol.


I converted a song into midi them back into mp3, claim-free. But then it's just organized chaos.

I dont know if anyone told you, but im in love with you for that melee doc clip of the isai quote in the end


Surprised you didn't mention it, but does the copyright deadlock still work? If so, people should just do that and get their money elsewhere; I don't know why people still rely on ad-based revenue.


As a TF2 lover with nearly a 1000 hours on it (still not close to being a veteran), I'd like to know when it became popular in memes?
Was it since TF2 broke it's record time since it's last major update? I thought that would kill it.
I don't need sleep, I need answers.


I absolutely love that there is a brazen re-upload of all 6 star wars movies on this random youtube channel that was recommended to me, it has existed for 3 years and still hasnt been taken down


To avoid copyright clains, host videos on your personal site. And just post a video with a link to your site lol.


I'm suffering from a headache and manflu, a <b>downward spiral</b> of sickness. Now EmpLemon has uploaded again, I might feel a bit more better 👍

I'm suffering from a headache and manflu, a *downward spiral* of sickness. Now EmpLemon has uploaded again, I might feel a bit more better 👍


Another trick to avoiding claims on copyrighted music is to switch the left and right audio channels and/or invert the wave form. Doing so will generally have minimal audible distortion (except with songs that use heavy panning) while also creating audio that doesn't match up in a way that the content ID system can recognize very well. Maybe they've gotten smarter about that, but it used to work pretty well from what I hear.

I remember for a long time, I could find an upload of Bob Dylan's All Along the Watchtower on YouTube. All I could find were Hendrix's cover or something else that just had song's title. Now, it's up on YouTube.

Thanks to YouTube's copyright policies we now have the green Simpsons.

Green Simpsons YouTube

I hope you're proud of yourselves


It turns out the YouTube sound library isn’t safe either, as Matt Lowne was claimed for using a song featured in it that was at some point removed for no apparent reason...

That's because the creator learned how popular the song was and decided to start claiming it, after removing it from the sound library.


The professional did a 11 hour walkthrough of a game and it was copyright claimed for a pathetic 11 seconds of it

Actually the Youtube Audio Library isn't a perfect solution either, a youtuber by the name of Matt Lowne recently had dozens upon dozens of his videos claimed for using a piece of music he had downloaded directly from the library some years ago, but which was for some reason no longer available in the library.  Presumably the license expired and the creator decided to copyright the track, leading to an enormous waste of time and effort on Matt's part getting the whole affair sorted.


imo youtube copyright bs is why zoomers don't know who jimi hendrix is. the copyright striking ends up being counterproductive for the person getting the royalties in the long run


I’m surprised these youtubers aren’t just slamming notes into FL studio and calling it a day.


You know somethin'? I'm of the exact same opinion about copyright law's strict enforcement. I will not rest, I will not cease in my archiving and sharing of IP and media, until the day that these laws and policies are repealed. Trademarks and patents do nothing but stifle art, tech, and business innovation. The intention may be noble on paper, but the existence of the patent and the power of a government force only works to shut down those who outperform or provide complementary experiences to their products and services.

Eat our collective asses, TVTube!


The ENTIRE Garfield 2 movie is bootlegged on YouTube in 10 second clips. Thought that was a cool idea to avoid getting claimed

I need to make a song that's just me reading an open dictionary. Then I can claim every video because they stole my words.

"welcome back my friend to the shows that never ends" Nice ELP reference there, Emp.


I got claimed by doing a live stream of GTA V through my ps4. Rly fking nice because it took my ability away to live stream and I had to take the "copyright" class. I couldn't even dispute it. So lame...


Why not just make your videos at x.5 the speed, and we just play it at x2? Wouldn't that help with distorting video/music?

There is something to be said about some games being uploaded online though. Detroit: Become Human and other titles are pretty much movies, and when people upload uninterrupted cuts of the entire gameplays without any commentary or altering. You can’t argue that that isn’t serving as a substitute for buying the game, it’s not just free promotion.

And that's yet another reason why cinematic focused games are a dumb idea


i payed for my first car with megalovania

I’m surprised kingdom hearts wasn’t in here. If you let the music play a bit to long uninterrupted  on stream it’s a claim


I was happy to see the cameo appearance by MC Dry Heavz in the intro.


My strategy: just go to Vimeo, Dailymotion, Vidlii, BitChute, Minds, literally anywhere else and upload there. Maybe not Vimeo. Strongly recommend BitChute, though. It's G O L D.

And, hey, if you still want to upload on YouTube, just post an edited version of or a trailer for your video and then upload the real deal to the above alternatives. Except Vimeo. STAY AWAY.

That last bit... Man, BrawlBRSTms3 uploaded the best Megaman music. Whenever I needed a song, I went to him. It ain't fair.


For songs I put them through a mp3 to midi converter and overlaying text to speech lyrics of the the sung parts.


That claim thing for the Pulp Fiction clip has happened to that Kanye clip where he said “George Bush doesn’t care about black people” it’s bullshit how bad YT is at this


The bimmons are green, pretty epic. Rather good video, broke down in a critical way how the copyright has reduce the freedom of creators and how larger companies have bullied the person over pretty shitty claims but again it leads back to the retardedly word copyright law.


Just realized that all these tricks you're mentioning have been used in every single porn video I've watched.

@level2janitor I shit you not, I remember this wank "rhythm game" video that had hotline miami's ost all over it

@level2janitor Megalovania. Just Megalovania.

just out of curiosity, i wanna know what video game soundtracks get used for porn videos

I also save most of my porn by right-clicking images online and clicking the “Save as...” option

Your use of the mario paint music was so fuckin' perfect


if you cant find the name of a song just upload it to youtube it will detect it better than all other music detection software/websites


Funny how when he uses the fruit clip when talking about footage being irrelevant,  the footage is actually relevant to the topic, that being irrelevant footage.


i remember watching pokemon movies on my kindle fire when i was 9 but the movie was in the very top right and it takes up 10% of the screen

copyright is supposed to expire after 50 years...
yet images of micky mouse are still copyright?
i guess the rules dont apply to the big corporations who hold the copyright


I dont think that it was allowed by deliberation, more of the case of 'no precedent set therefore legal'


Finally got my first copyright claim! On the wrong song HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA! When I saw it, I fucking died!

This comment is now outdated as I deleted all my videos.


I tended to use OCRemix or Newgrounds songs back when I made vids and would just edit the reverb by like 12% or something like that just in case


I once got copyright claimed for using a song from microsoft video editor. good job


Music has way more power over people than film.


Speaking of TantrisOST, it just got sniped not too long ago. I only know this because I decided to finally save their StarCraft II upload mere days before it happened, as if that influenced it somehow.


you need to let us know what this video got claimed for lol


EmpLemon: Hey youtube, how broken it your copyright system?

Youtube: Yes.

@Triangle_Pants Look in the community tab of that channel. You will see.

thank you so much for putting music in a pastebin


I think it's kind of funny that they'd be so religious about enforcing the music copyright but if you look up literally any song since the beginning of time you can find it from the artist the topic and several reuploads from random people


tbh, general IP laws are actually highly abusive and are prone to generating monopolies. In fact the funny thing about IP laws is that the term IP, intellectual property, was used as a refutation of the laws, long before it represented the subject by proponents of it, for trying to enforce applying ideas into law and thus making thoughts own-able property. Honestly I think IP law should die.


the second you defended spiff even though his entire channel depends on those copy righted images, not just a second or two but every minute in every video of his your legitimacy vanished and every point you make then on has no right


12:39 on a video that I made(that I deleted by now), some fuckers decided to claim some random megalovania remix as their song, although having nothing in common with that song


Guy: * uses one millisecond of a random song *

Music companies: hand over your wallet bitch


If a reaction guy steals your entire video. Then claim copyright. Does he win?


As said in 13:17, i had a similar problem, when the Kavinsky legal team claimed a song on a video i worked MjB-hnQIH3U?t=874 . Bot the sample he made(Kavinsky - Rampage) originally was from dragonball z... And when i replaced it with the dbz one, no monetization warning or problem ocurred...

Remember when FineBros. were able to make a TV show of their React series?


just so you know in the dashlane ad it was going to say "we live in a society"


You won't have the problem if you make the music yourself 🙂


The minute I heard the Pools theme I knew I was going to be in some deep shit.


This honestly needs to stop, its stifling peoples' creativity and pushing them to mental illness.

Mental illness in the population? Stifling individuality? F it, who cares?! They don’t have lots of money.

like what they did to me? ruin youtube and the entire entertainment industry so i cant be a famous animator or game dev or anything in the creative feild?

bruh, they're penny pinchers<br>they couldn't give less of a shit if you commit toaster bath as long as you give them money, asking them for some sympathy is asking a brick wall to feel emotion

How did you not talk about nintendo taking down like three channels about video game music, this has to be in the next one


I think it would help if the only option copyright holders had was to block the video in all countries, instead of getting money for it. Free money is a serious incentive to claim videos. Taking it down only accomplishes something if the existence of the content actually hurts your business, like an entire movie. Taking down a video is also visible to fans, unlike revenue claims.


You had Destroyed the very thing it sought to become


There are some interesting bootleggers out there(all in the same way). s̶e̶a̶r̶c̶h̶ ̶u̶p̶ b̶a̶r̶t̶ ̶l̶u̶c̶k̶y̶  y̶e̶l̶l̶o̶w̶ ̶h̶o̶m̶e̶r̶ I've only seen it with the simpson and family guy but they have titles that LOOK like they describe what's happening in the thumbnail and they're always filled with jumpcuts.


Some copyright music is not even music I saw a video about the Mars Spirit and opportunity rovers launch and there was copyright music even though that there was no music I click the link and it took me into a recording an audio file of them so when they performed the music that surprised me even radio chatter could also be covering it it’s ridiculous!


Fuckin loved when you put in the quote from the smash bros documentary


i dont know but this encouraged me to use things without permission


Feels like years since I watched Emp for some reason lol


Ayy, it didn't occur to me, but I'm really glad my boi Gilva Sunner is in this video! I don't actually make videos, I just like listening to the music, and he's my number one source


one way i smuggle music isnt through purely editing but the choice of song i use. for example my solo run of ebondrake citidel uses a song from monster girl quest. a hentai. and it has the audio sound effects from the game i am playing ontop of it making the song function as a background music replacement.


reaction videos are probably safe bc the companies dont have the rights to you


Turns out the video wasn't blocked internationally like some speculated

yet

Therapist: Lightning McClaim isn't real. He can't hurt you...

Lightning McClaim: Kaching!


You could probably cough and be copyright striked for playing 37 songs.


I think they've started claiming song covers now so i don't know that you can save that


“Don’t get hit” I didn’t know you were into melee!

Turns out Emplemon is really into Smash bros melee. Specifically Hungrybox

22:46 I know that name... and that quote too.

Isai said it playing smash 64 im pretty sure

@Rachel Slur The quote "Don't Get Hit" and the voice clip were from the Smash Brothers Documentary.


I remember watching the first few seasons of Pokemon on youtube with these tactics.


@emp I dunno where you live but in the uk if you go 5 miles an hour over the speed limit they really have a hard-on for enforcing that.


Who cuts a cantaloupe that way what a barbarian! 6:12


speed up the song and tell your viewers to slow down the video by the same percentage. pro move


Emp: * uploads this *

I know the biggest copyright smugglers on YouTube: those that put "Full movie in [insert language] " in the title. They upload an entire, unedited movie on YouTube in a resolution that is higher than 480p and they mostly don't get copyright striked or terminated! But those that upload well known movies like Shrek, get copyright striked or terminated.

Mint Jams is better than their first album tbh (although I’ll fight anyone who doesn’t like Dream Hill)


You never talked about the fact that you can look up any song on YouTube and get serveral results that aren't from the artist


18:00 Hmmm...
If it was a $1 license... how much could it have been?


Regarding video game music, keep in mind that publishers / rights holders are slowly getting wise;
Nintendo went scorched earth with multiple vgm channels, well known or not, after Smash Ultimate leaked, and people quickly uploaded the then unreleased audio to youtube.
Many channels have suffered or been wiped as a result, and now the future of vgm of Nintendo properties, new and old, are uncertain.

And a bonus story close to my heart, Namco Music Channel, known for their wealth of high quality Tekken tracks and other Namco property music, was slapped off the site when they were hit with multiple copyright claims and channel strikes.

As you said, the longer this goes on, the worst it gets.
With the (semi) recent FTC news, it's not even known if there will be a youtube in the future.

Enjoy the tunes while you can...

Good stuff a usual

So that's why I always feel like playing Gran Tourismo 4 after watching your videos


There's one channel called ViralHog that basically runs business of copyright striking videos


2017 I made a video at Sziget Festival in Budapest of me and my friends.
Obs, if you are at a concert probably you will ear music in the background.
Was copyrighted not by the festival, not by Hardwell that did the remix but from the author of the orignal song.
WTF


The fact that people that make no content AT ALL know about how bad and awful the system is is a issue.


I have a feeling that the video has already been demonized and is going to get claimed by someone with 2 subscribers from India with no evidence to claim the video.


If I remember correctly a video of MikeyMegaMega was copyrighted because he accidentally and unknowingly said the lyrics of a song that he even didn't know "this hips don't lie"

You know Macintosh Plus Floralshoppe?
The second song, everyone's favorite song with 420 in the title, gets copyright claimed by diana ross...
HOW THE FUCK CAN THAT VAPORWAVE BE CONSIDERED A REUPLOAD OF THE ORIGINAL SONG ITS BASED ON?!?!
And it's AUTO CLAIMED! AUTO

I got a strike on a video where I had a song playing in the background. That wasn't the point of the video, just happened to be what I was listening to. How does that work?


I got the 2000 IQ for using non copyright content and copyright content, get on my level.


I gotta praise emp for showing the casiopea album @ 20:32


And like, nobody really understands copyright unless they are interested in it

@Ecrivon Lunyx well no, I guess what i was thinking about is how many kids in my school probably dont know jack about copyright, and realized they never teach you about it, unless you stumble across it

A lot of YouTubers and other creators aren't necessarily interested in copyright, but they have to learn about it in order to do their work, unless that's what you're talking about?


the default library isnt even save... A ksp youtuber (Matt Lowne) recently had all his videos flagged after youtube took the song he used out of that exact library


the fact you didnt put "no copyright infringement intended" in your description is sad


Dude that melee reference at the end got me good


A youtuber I watch got a copyright strike from Ferrari on one of his videos because he got a custom exhaust for his corvette that made it sound like a V8 Ferrari.


1:16 enjoying the (not so) subtle Karn Evil Nine


The downward spiral leads to the abyss of infinite darkness.

The Chosen One but through the turmoil... knowledge is earned

Wrong. The downward spiral IS the abyss of infinite darkness.


This makes YouTubers look like criminals, just saying

So the Simpsons are green because Emp doesn't want to get raped by YouTube copyright system. Mystery solved.


Me: Films my toilet bowl filled with a lumpy load of intestinally-processed bean burrito ingredients
YouTube: This video has been copyright claimed by Tyler Perry (video) and Post Malone (audio)

Me: Guilty as charged


Zombieland was on youtube for a while, some zoom-ins at every few seconds and it pass the algo.  In my early days of youtube I uploaded clip from Family guy. I had to use red line crossing the video, and the audio was poor quality from the incorrect exporting settings. Nowadays I had posted clip from Rick and Morty, didn't detect it, but was manually allowed, just like the clip from family guy, because it increases the popularity of the show, by the having the community sharing positive stuff about it.


I'm gonna report my teachers for using copyrighted images to Shutterstock.


YouTube really wants me to watch this video…


Kinda wish your Joker forehead tattoo said "demonetized" instead of "downward", but either way. 👍


Shoutout to Casiopea, great band. Didn't know you knew about them.


"welcome my friends to the show that never ends" i knew you used karn evil 9 in your last video


WE NEED TO CREATE OUR OWN SONG..
And share it together.. made meme video together.. use together.
then no one can claim it.. except your own friend :)


remember

if you get copyrighted
its canon


GAMERS RISE UP, WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY A DOWNWARD SPIRALLING SOCIETY


That bit about not getting hit is so fucking cool


Personally I would just avoid royalty free music because these musics are just generic and boring. I would prefer use some video game soundtracks instead of just using royalty free music


MegaMan 2 is one of my favorite all time games

just make your own music get some sticks and start hitting random things and put it all together


Shoutouts to the dude who made a song that used the reverse song of healing from OoT (not even well i might add, its just kinda tossed in there) and now all instances of it are being claimed including the original ben drowned series, and the dude refuses to release the claims.


i get it, but why are all these "top anime openings" not taken down, i mean it`s just copyrighted japanese music.<br>still great video

I really, really, really like this image.


It's sad that nearly all Buckethead song footage gets claimed. How can more people learn about him if YouTubers lose money from featuring his work?


10:39 this song here is catchy, but oddly unnerving. :\


love the 8bit version of the song from da jokah at the end. brilliant


I had a video of mine copyright struck because I used an AC/DC song. Kicker is, it wasn't their record label that flagged it up, it was some random asshole D&B artist that sampled a random part of the song and claimed my video (using the original AC/DC song). I just deleted the video in the end, the hell am I letting my content line the pockets of some random asshole.


Your video has been taken away for copyright: Source: EmpLemon's voice (sounds like my voice, I might have been born first.)


I'll always remember this as Mumkey background music :'( R.I.P


10:35 Damn, how'd you get away with uploading A WHOLE concert of the white stripes?


just a note kippykip 2009's family guy party rock album somehow managed to get claimed


Omg finally it’s been forever since part 1

That statement didnt age well


In 2012 I put up a video of myself singing karaoke to Weird Al's "Dare To Be Stupid."  Content ID flagged it... as "Tom's Diner" by Susanne Vega.


By the way some of the clips with the old sounding electric organ is using the (amazing) song karn evil 9 by Emerson Lake and Palmer.


terminal passage is one of my favorite channels


Oh, Tails, you caught my tears before they stained the carpet


You can also claim your own video by making a shitty outro song.      This will allow you to get 50% of your revenue if someone claims your song


And then there's Touhou Project, which is pretty much royalty free.


"Reaction videos are claimproof"   riiiiiiight


Music copyright is the worst when it comes to rhythm games. A video of a music game where the song being played has to be muted is unwatchable, and one of my rhythm game videos constantly got blocked worldwide because of the song.

I had to circumvent this by turning the music down by 40db, putting all the music in the left channel, putting an equalizer that warped the balancing of the song, and I STILL got blocked worldwide.

It wasn't until I took a clip called "pizza etiquette" and I placed the audio right under the music track that I finally got it to upload without being blocked worldwide.


Nintendo coming for all youtuber's old videos now that their music is copyrighted


5:30
That doesn’t stop Tom Scott!
He’s the best.

Except Tom Scott is a filthy rich Youtubers


Vampire Killer AND With Mila's Divine Protection, right after another no less? This has my approval!


I took a piece of a rap song without vocals and copy pasted it to make a backing track from my video and it got copyright claimed as the instrumental version of that rap song lmao


Big brain: claim your own videos so you at least get 50%


<b>Sly Cooper 5: Sly Cooper Helps His Son With His Youtube Channel</b>

*Sly Cooper 5: Sly Cooper Helps His Son With His Youtube Channel*

I'd play it, like the fool I am, being a person who paid full price for sly cooper 4

Sly Cooper 4 already exists bro, but I understand not remembering it exists


My channel has a lot of royalty free music. I have been hit by the artist bait-and-switch so much. I made a playlist of "Banned" tracks. :x


Hey EmpLemon, did you see Original Ace's guide for copyright claiming... yourself, to take your monetization money away from yourself?


Ahahah, 8 bit chiptune covers doesn't work anymore, YouTube could somehow detect some of them and I've got copyright claimed

Искандер Сайфуллин


Welp, it's time to start a full-on YouTube career.

Hmm. Good luck doing that with COPPA coming in.


So, in other words. The music most likely to get your video a copyright strike is lowest common denominator bullshit, main stream shit music.


I always find sad bart simpson edits so funny


When Mila's divine protection starts playing but then you realise it's the smash version so he prolly never played FE15<br>:(

@L. de Wijse Fire Emblem isn't really a jrpg tho and definitely not hardcore, especially the newer titles try to make it as easy and accessible to newcomers as possible with things like Killer Queen's third bomb and casual mode

There might be more people like me, who just appreciate the good art and good music, but don't have time for tedious and hardcore old JRPG's. I could get into a few of those franchises now, with 3D, but go and ask any fan about that

Imma be real with you mate, Mila’s divine protection I pretty good, but, DAT FLAMENCO


20:24 About a year ago, I got a video claimed for "Messe Notre Dame" from around the 1360s!


You can also make intro/outro music and claim yourself


“Hello, this is Robert Fripp. I heard you using the song “21st Century Schizoid Man” in one of your videos. Prepare to be terminated.”


I love making my own song to claim my own video


The smash documentry ending cameo at the ending is beutiful


And Emp still hasn't made a video about COPPA, oh well. :v

It's what all the ancients said, it's what they warned of. It's what we're dealing with.
They're demons. They friggin inter-dimensional invaders, okay.

21:07 cool so the background music for my latest speeddraw wont be copyrighted epic... i dont really care at this point but thats very epic


*Category:Education*
_Well,He ain't wrong_


Noones talking about how the entire movie of Django Unchained has been up on YouTube for a year?


Fun fact:I did a genocide of undertale and someone claimed megolavania that day


I really vibes with this video, but then I just disconnected when the fruit stock footage came up


So that means I can make a song with Porcupine Tree and King Crimson songs as a background, thats cool.


i got incorrectly claimed so many times because of samples


Mumbo Jumbo got copyrighted even though He had all the rights to his music


Just do Mambo #5 in G major and autotuned to the Little Einsteins theme song theres no way they can claim that


Starts the video off with Karn Evil 9, 2nd impression by Emerson, Lake and Palmer.

Nice.


Undertale all eventually got claimed -  Materia Collective seems to troll for it now, was a good run


Note to self, never buy anything from shutter stock


25:10 I am SUPER GLAD to be finding Jerkules pics EVERYWHERE.


I got a video on my channel taken down for playing 15 or so seconds of a sonic song, WHILE PLAYING A SONIC GAME. I turned the music on for the intro and got taken down, wtf


When the royalty free elevator music is synonymous with I Hate Everything.


Annnnd THIS is why I left YouTube and moved to Periscope! I can't wait to get back to filming my show! Never take a karate chop swing at a side view mirror! Your arm will loose! YpuTube has gotten even worse huh? Yeah, I am glad I dumped them! I will only be using them for vlogs!


You probably got copyright claimed for the Pulp Fiction music because the film studio paid for permission to use that song and you didn't.


gifs could be another way to getaway from copyright i heard


Remember when Pewdiepie got claimed for SINGING Despacito with ONLY his voice and acoustic guitar? Yeah, that was cool...


this video has starts off so batshit insane

10:39: What is the music called. It sounds really good and i want to listen to it on it’s own,
P L E A S E R E P Y


16:39 your telling me it’s ALL royalty free? Then why tf did I get my whole channel taken down? I literally got all my music from there


The second edition of the youtube is shit series that has been here on YouTube since 2017


Some rapper sampled the goddamn GOLDENEYE 64 WATCH MUSIC and CLAIMED the original uploads. I'm not !@$!ing kidding.


4:00 say it louder so the NFT community will hear you


Funny story about youtubes music copyright bullshit.................. one time I uploaded a video of me improvising a guitar solo over a public domain backing track, and 4 different publishers attempted to copyright claim it.   It was literally a minute of me mindlessly wanking a guitar solo.  Apparently I was unknowingly covering 4 publishers songs without even knowing it.

4:12 Aren’t most, if not, all Shutterstock images free to use?


take out a copyright on your own stuff and then claim your own video


also 16:37 even the audio library can get claimed....wtf is wrong with youtube


This is how copyright was intended to work. Every single complaint in this video is an example of copyright working as intended. Copyright is unethical. Repeal copyright.

@krerm No. No. No. The very premise of copyright is incorrect and unethical. It's like talking about the way slavery should work. It shouldn't work. In both cases, no one should ever have that sort of power over another person.

@krerm I'm a fan of the Creative Commons Attribution license until we can repeal copyright, but copyright is based on fundamentally flawed thinking that inevitably leads to bad things happening. A music creator should never have any say over what a video creator can or can't create and they should never be allowed to extort money from a video creator no matter the circumstances.

Also he has part 3 that is go in more details of what's wrong with that

I guess it was made so people can contact owner to use song and give them part of profit but if song too popular, they probably wouldn't be able to answer every single request from small content creators

And if you want people to just know that you are author of the song, there is another licence for it where person using song just has to paste your links in the description

Actually your song can somehow lead to more views and more more money. But why taking all of money from video? Maybe it would be better if the revenue going to owner would depend on how long song played in your video


Google sharing copyrighted images is copyright infringement, right?


Copyright claim on the 1812 Overture.

You mean Tchaikovsky is back from the dead?

I really hate how even if the songs are 100% free use, the Content ID system assumes that it is the copyrighted performance and hits you with a claim


It's funny how your videos suddenly stopped being recommended to me before this even came out.


23:51  Am genuinely disappointed that "Epstein didn't kill himself" does not fit the format.

Fuck the beatles, I made a fully animated video using "Eleanor Rigby" once, and it got blocked everywhere. That's fine. So then I muffle the song a good bit. Gets claimed. Lower the pitch. Still claimed. Lower the pitch AND muffle it. Still claimed. Lower the pitch, muffle it, turn the volume down to where it's barely audible and slow it down to 50%. STILL FUCKING CLAIMED. After that I gave up and haven't uploaded this video I spent 15 hours on since.

and what? you used that song that we HAD on our library but isn't on it anymore in your video?
CLEARLY REQUIRES A COPYRIGHT CLAIM


bro, it's not 2006. any smartphone nowadays records perfectly fine and watchable video, prop it up and you can have a good time and record videos for free and when it comes to location, where are ya gonna fuckin go, bikini bottom?


It sucks because you can hardly make sample based music these days, alot of hiphop etc cant be uploaded without instantly being claimed. Its not uncommon for lofi-sample based songs to have 20-30 sources of samples, any one of them can get flagged :/

Electronic Gems? Is that who the claimer was? Was that an Easter egg?


My shit ass text to speech video of We are number one (made back when it was booming) got claimed because I forgot to set the volume slider all the way to 0 and it was just tiny teeny bit above so you could hear it only faintly in the video when no other audio was playing.


The thing I hate the most is old content either claimed or deleted from the user. Such as old YTP’s getting claimed and the holder not uploading them anywhere. So others have to reupload the older videos for them. It’s just sad to see those videos gone kinda like losing some internet history imo.

It's happened to me, and I'm still looking for any shred of videos from my early history. I know it's probably not going to show up anytime soon (if ever), but I still look for it.

Lol I don’t even need to worry about copyright. I just give people comforting apian backrubs, and they let me use their stuff.

Just Some Great Ape With Internet Access

I was Copyright claimed some years ago by MERLIN for a song on Portal


My videos got flagged for having minors in them and I added music and now the flags are gone


When your favorite youtuber appears for a second (21:17) on an Emps video

Again, DMCA is far more fair than YouTube's system; it is completely manual, and the claimer faces possible repercussions. Far more fair.

None of this has anything to do with the law. DMCA is far more fair. They have to give names and addresses, you can take them to court over false claims, the burden of proof lies upon them if they take YOU to court, etc...<br>Really points to the sad state of affairs in America when the government is more fair than, well... anything.

Naw the law came into being way earlier. It's the companies that follow and stretch the law too far into foreign lands that cause the damage. The government can't predict nor prevent everything. We can hope it can react but reaction itself from the government is potentially dangerous so...

The solution is simple.<br>Make your own goddamn content.

The solution is simple.
Make your own goddamn content.

Sometimes it isn't that simple though, in the case of commentary channels. Or as shown in this video, you can get claims even if that doesn't actually occur in your video. (Like some people last year talking about Rewind 2018 getting claimed for using those popular songs even though they specifically muted the clips to avoid that)


DON'T GET HIT

OH MY GOD

I LOVE YOU

-FROM ALL MELEE PLAYERS


Make a twin channel and copyright claim it and take the revenue for your own channel


Don't see a lot of people making ELP references. Great to know that I'm not the only fan who bops out to Karn Evil 9

Karn Evil 9 is awesome. I come back to it almost every week


I heard some Gran Turismo 4 music in there lol. Paul Davids got copyrighted for his own original music, go look it up


The distortions that you can see on homers chin/mouth look a lot like what I sometimes see on my skin when taking drugs xdd


I got a copyright strike once for using a song which I though was okay anyways if it was the original song. But some random fucker who remixed the original song decided to claim my video when I used the original song instead of his shitty ass remix XDDDDDDDD


The password is We Live In A Society.
nice try lemon lad.

Edit: fuck.


that comment about the music library aged like milk


one of the videos on my channel is just a clip from star wars with some sound effects put over it and it never got flagged for copyright.


I remember watching anime on YouTube with a small screen in 240p


Good video but will there never ever be another game like TF2?

agreed, games nowadays don't have the comedic and friendly tone, high skill ceiling, and basic foundation


21:25 isn't that old rating box from the Newgrounds?


TheFatRat? Shit, literally just discovered him earlier this week. Anyone reading this, go out and give Monody a listen.


Hey Emplemon talk about the new coppa policy of 2020

Lol, all of this work because some people are to stupid to understand that piracy is actually good for everyone.

You don't want your content seen? You don't want to be famous? Well ok then. I gonna watch something else in this ENDLESS OCEAN OF CONENT.
If you don't want to stand out, that's fine by me.

Hearing Casin without Shake That overlayed a top of it sounds really weird.

Uhhgg, I wasn't really a fan of that remix. It was ok though.


I am sorry to say this but when I saw the password spaces I figured out it says: "My butt is a goliath"


just use extremely obscure metal music on tiny independent labels


I had a video with a midi version of Superman by Goldfinger get claimed like a week after uploading it.


this was recommended to me by youtube...

Do this mean the war is over ?

I find that YouTube loves recommending me videos about how bad their platform is


Nice 8-bit version of that song who's tune everyone knows yet no one knows the actual name of the song for your exit song. 👍🏼

YouTube is fucked. 2020 I predict a better alternative will step up.

Anyone asking the song is a song from 1973 by G a ry G little r "H E Y"


I wonder how many people out there have used memes I've created.

There are many Furry hate memes that I have made that have made, that go unposted, entirely because I have been banned from both Reddit, and Twitter.

Thank you sir for keeping the meme economy alive.


Still kicking the carcass of behind the meme I see 5:54

We finally got the answer

We now know why were the simpsons green


1:44 omg that played at the start of every dvd in my childhood


Okay so how come you can’t use any music on YouTube but tik toks whole career is song stealing?


I reported this so youtube has to watch the video and can learn


1:43 anyone know the name of the song in the background?

The pastebin link is broken so I can't access it


Stock video footage is great and all but good like finding footage of a girl farthing out birthday candles on a cake.


To be fair.... Trump very much deserved that DMCA from Nickelback....... Also it was the funniest shit All year.......


The fucking Smash Documentary reference. I love it. A


Its funny ending on the smash bros doc isai quote and game music when every youtuber uses game music or 8bit sound tracks


People still press the print screen button? thought everyone used widow+shift+s now.

@Ausintune sure is, thanks for reminding me.

@Anatomy Of The Mix In the past thats how ive done it. My current job doesnt involve pc much, so these days i just meme hence my op. Quick way to grab something and paste into PS.

I use dropbox, and it automatically saves a screenshot to my shared folder when I press the print-screen button. No more pasting the clipboard and saving the file manually.

Obviously, If you need to edit it, there are extra steps.

The print screen button is there for a reason

@Sandeep Singh or maybe not just add extra things to my desktop that isnt needed when windows does it for me well enough.

@LARAUJO I thought so too, now its normal like crt alt del etc saves you having to cut the image from a prntscrn

Win+Shift+S is a wierd motion for my hand to make; I just do Win+PrSc

LightShot is where it's at. It's like Snipping Tool, but you don't even have to hit a different button.


You can't even take works out of the Creative Commons though...


15:37 in less... you use a partnered verified channel to content ID for revenue your OWN VIDEO honestly do I need to reach 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of watch time just TO PROVE THIS WORKS!


What is the song playing when the clip of the cat playing piano? I know it's a common YTP song but what is it called? Song starts at 10:45


Distorting the movie’s saturation and hues....

IS THIS WHY THE SIMPSONS ARE GREEN?!


have people ever tried to use royalte songs but in cover? For example, instead of using, let's say the imperial march, why not make a cover of it (made in piano or guitar or whatever) and then use it? Would it get claimed?

And they don't make cover themselves, they just find piano version

In geometry dash community it's actually a very frequent thing. Because you can't showcase custom level with different song in the video


I got a claim for using the Jo Jo to be continued meme, it's banned in North Korea, and now glorious leader will never see that video.....

Joke's on who ever claimed the video though, I don't monetize anything I upload, I just make dumb video game crap for my friends to watch. but hey if they can grab a couple cents from one of the whole 7 views my videos get from someone who might randomly watch my stuff without an adblocker, more power to them I guess.

@robscallon ones played two notes and got a claim because some bot thought it was staircase


Yeah, but isn't GranTurismo music risky to use too? 14:42


What do you mean? The Beatles got fully released by i believe Paul McCartney and are now avaliable in great quality.


Just a reminder:

YouTube isn't biased in favour of "the left" or "the right" or any actual values. They're concerned with the accumulation of wealth and capital, nothing more than that.


YOU DONT JUST PUT COWBOW THING OVER SMASH BROS DOCU

uhm, you probably heard this already, but mumbo jumbo sat for a couple of days, deleting 10 seconds of his intro, even tho he had the right by the guy who made it, but he sampled the song from another artist or smt...


I used to make music and posted a few songs to YouTube and got a strike against me. . . .


This video has the most views in the series. So yeah, people are interested, I guess....


use classical music, all the copyright has ran out

Safer to use vaporware game soundtracks.


So thats why 'because of win dixie' was like that. They scaled it up and put a weird filter on it. Looked like a bunch of dots and light static.


13:51 "TF2: What game is this?" good old STAR_


Man that anime dub at the start.  Pretty good


22:45 yooo did you just reference the melee documentary??? respect

Ok so the Joker/Trump mixup is pretty cool. But, the jewel-encrusted Homer. Was that from an actual episode? Do you happen to have the S:E numbers?

And I'm loving your vids on this.


I mean, after yoh put those colors and sound filters against the content you want to post, is it really that content anymore?


20:32 YOOOOOOO CASIOPEA!!! I LOVE THAT ALBUM!

Can someone help me figure out where the video clip/music/VO clips are from at 22:47?


Where's Rotten Records? Those guys are notorious among Acid Bath fans for being so vigilant.


...So, how about dat COPPA BS? Wanna give us your two cents on that?


Oh no you've been copyright claimed because you used elevator music

telling people to steal music from broke, independent artists instead of rich, corporate-sponsored artists with record deals is pretty fucked up man


2:35.
[looks at my profile picture]
Shit...


The Jimi Hendrix copyright is incredible. I find it hard to even express in words how much I hate it.


This man is legitimately the best YouTuber, and I respect him.


I love how I spent most of this video trying to identify the background music. Also, I appreciate your taste. The smash remix of Mila's divine protection is one of my personal faves.


I hope this starts a pissing match between Movie & Music corporations that blows back in their faces.

Feed The Spiral!


nothing brings a smile to my face more than seeing an EmpLemon video on my Homescreen. another banger, my dude


Here's an idea; What if you upload the audio of the video to a different website, and just have the viewer play it separately themselves? Not the best solution but its one of the few this broken system might allow.


You know Emplemon hitting the hard topics when he's out here featuring Jim Sterling clips in the video. <br>Also props for using Mila's divine protection. I like the Echoes version more but they're both good.

You can always stick to module music. There's a variety of them and it's easy to use them and credit the creator since most of them are dead or don't care or want the publicity. I would go for any track that you can find on YouTube uploaded by a nobody that hasn't gotten claimed. I personally prefer this method because they're better sounding than a midi, but still have that old vintage computer music feel. and there's a stock pile of these out there. Also some of them tend to be remixes of old pop music, so be careful.

Find modules here: http://modarchive.org/
Module player here: https://openmpt.org/

Use file > open to open the file.
then do file > stream export
set your settings and export it as a normal music file you can use anywhere.

or you can use a YouTube video downloader  to download a YouTube video with the song in it.

(Youtube-dl is the safest way and doesn't require a shady website that'll go down in an unspecified amount of time)

Thanks for reading! Hope this helps.


When it comes to smuggling audio, I once found a channel that would fuck with the outputs of the audio somehow so that it could only be recognized on headphones. Anything else and the audio would be nonresistant.


As soon as i saw you talk about protected songs such as jimi hendrix i remembered to put a thumbs up on the video. It's a shame really, usually when i use music it's in the background of a game montage (and i usually use music i like, not generic dubstep stuff to avoid copyright/appeal to children), and it's fine by me when i get copyright claimed for revenue, but when the video gets completely blocked in all countries to the point where you can't view it, it's a huge problem. Thank you for sharing, emp.


19:12 Oh fuck, it's sooo good. I did not expect to get hit with that level of nostalgia watching a video about copyright


I audibly breathed a sigh of relief when I heard of that music tos change, even though I am not even a content creator myself.


I love video game companies for allowing us to use their music, well, except for Ubisoft.


I feel like we wouldn't care about claims as much if shared revenue became the default, like a normal royalty system


when you upload a video a little bit of hope drips back into my soul


Bungi is flipping awesome for supporting red vs blue. Any other developer would have shot them down.


Some gaming OST do have strict copyright over them. It's funny how I got a strike from a visual novel when the music was composed by a different person who didn't even worked for the game.


This answered so many questions while being an extremely smooth and funny video


14:55 Also, reversing songs. I like to reverse copyrighted music both because it's funny and how it avoids being caught, but…one time, I did get caught (strike and video takedown) for it by IFPI, Taylor Swift's bodyguards.


The collective ownership over the means of production is pretty sick bro


Trout Mask Replica is a pretty good source if you want to use copyrighted music without the repercussions. The original owners/producers (Beefheart and Zappa) are dead, and YouTube's bots don't even pick up tracks from that album as music. And, tracks can be distorted or edited without altering audience perception music. Track 15 works particularly well for this. (Oh, and you probably won't have to deal with claims from the current owners, as Zappa's kids don't typically enforce unless you're performing the music at a paid show without permission.)


we need a web extension that can transform a youtube video in real time. that way people can upload videos with transposed pictures and an extension will rearrange them for the viewer


UMG tried to copyright claim me a while ago for a song from Minecraft, claiming it was from a song in the 1920s. I had to threaten YouTube with legal action for them to actually recognize that it was a false claim and the claim was removed shortly after the legal threat was sent. THAT is how bad the Copyright system is in YouTube nowadays.


I love how I could relate to this video so much.


I pirate and research the systems and algorithms in place to stop that or to distribute but having been looking into different methods you mention it can't be done effectively with music but that's where the vibrato plugin for audacity can make a difference


Told you people to unionize,YouTube is literally the boss and you are the workers,if you are united,your voices will be heard all over YouTube inc


Also, I had a video get taken down worldwide once, the highlighted footage a low res clip of “this is your brain on drugs” with some slight meme edits. In the claim they cited a media claim, but their source was some music video from a German pop artist that I’ve never even heard of. Not to mention the video itself legitimately used a copyright song already, so I had no prospects of it being monetized and this was the leverage I used to get the video back up. I still don’t understand how such a thing like this is possible, I’ll post screencaps of the claim if anyone cares.

Then just recently (literally my last upload) got copyright claimed even though it was a poorly synced acapella parody over a midi cover with horns and bells... originally from a power metal song... Even the system detected it as a cover originally and they were STILL able to claim the revenue for my parody


The question on my mind now is: Did this video get copyright claimed?


I love personal websites but if you're going to make such a drastic change you should announce in social media. Specially uh, you know, YouTube, the site where people use your music the most.


This was a very informative video, tune in next week where EmpLemon teaches us how to make meth... for educational purposes of course.


this video is a fucking masterpiece as soon as i finished it i watched it again 3 times

Music. The easiest, most common thing to pirate. For some reason, the most powerful copyright on YouTube.


The year is 20XX.

Everyone is stealing shows at Arrested Development levels of perfection.  Search priorities have evolved past the L33T5P3AK metagame.


I appreciate that White Stripes clip. Good job, Emp.


This is one of the most important videos on YouTube of our time


THE YOUTUBE AUDIO LIBRARY IS NOT SAFE! A YouTuber I watch called Matt Lowen got copyclaimed on almost all of his KSP content because he used a song from the YT Audio library in the intro. The song has since been REMOVED from the library. All the videos with the song have been claimed and he is trying to save them.


I'm glad you liked the joker. And also,  I've smuggled so many songs on my channel. Not one copyright strike.


Great video Emp! 99.28% likes = GREAT tier


The last part of my Undertale LP got content ID'd... Not by Toby Fox, but by a group that had done a cover of "Hopes and Dreams"
