TomR Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 Sounds like theyre just making use of the advertiding opportunity, nowhere does it say to remove the content or you'll be charged a sum of money so i wouldnt worry about that. And you'd be to blame if anything did happen, as it's technically you whos broadcasting the material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 I had this message for one of my videos on YouTube, just a personal trials video not promoting anything.I just credited it in the description of my video and heard no more.The artist I used was HIM, and the email message said "UMG", I checked their record label and it was not UMG or any of its sub-groups so I found it a bit bull really.

tomturd Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 The way I read it was the copyright owners are saying 'yeah its ok, as long as we get to put adverts on the same page as it'. So I wouldn't worry.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendrix Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 cool, cheers guys, thats what I thought, but my mum wanted me to take off all my vids incase they sued me or somthing They can't sue you. Well, they could, but it wouldn't be worth the hassle. They're just having a 'power issue' at the moment, they can't control the piracy etc, so looking for an even easier target. They'll be bored before too long, and start trying to sue you for singing a song in your head... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendrix Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Had a chat with a few people last night about this as they'd received emails on the matter.If you use re-mix's which haven't been released, just been done for fun - they have no say on the matter.Think the same could go if you speed up/slow down and cut up a track dramatically.
