- There are some major issues with RUclips's new Creator Music service that you need to know about. It's exciting they have created the resource but they are not being clear in the communication and everyone thinks it's going to be a free for all...it isn't. So, we're going to talk about it.

![Eminem - Fuel (Shady Edition) feat. Westside Boogie & GRIP [Official Audio]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/k1OquBida9s/mqdefault.jpg)
So only use royalty free music and sounds. Im not splitting my revenue almost 50% for a song that takes up less than 20% of my video and is most likely just background music. That whole model is bonkers.
I'll be sticking services like epidemic sound or other free stuff.
Don't need any rock or pop music in my vids.
I think it would be better to wait to see what happens over the course of months and then decide what is best to take your channel down to lose revenue why not just be able to pay for the license I’m quite sure RUclips we’ll play friendly if the license has expired by informing you
The revenue we get is very minute anyway without having to pay or even lose our channel
Don't be so sure, double and triple check it, I've got a claim from music from there
I have plenty of copyright claims on royalty free music. Even when I give them credit. I've gotten to the point now when my video start getting commercials, I removed them. I work way too hard and I will never get monetized by this platform so that's how I play dirty 😂
RUclips should have a feature that will allow you to change the song once the video is publish. Just like they're allowing the the rights to be change once the video gets published.
I agree, but I think we can already do that on youtube. Unless they gotten rid of that...
@@AngelCnderDreamer change music? I know you can cut and edit the video a little. But idk how you would pull the music from a video unless you have a full editor.
@@larssgt Yeah you can remove the music too, youtube has options of music to use through it editor, but it is such a bad editor, I haven't touch it in like 2 years now? I don't know if they gotten rid of that option tho.
chocolate donkey
After publishing your video and you wanna change the music … go to RUclips studio , then youtube editor. Click edit and add the new music to cover the previous . It works just that you need some time to get it affected depending on the net speed . 🎉
All I'm hearing is - don't use RUclips music in your videos. I clicked on this so fast because I currently have a copyright claim on my very first Short, reached out to Support a while ago and still haven't heard back. It's just safer to not use their music I think. The small print is just more than I'm willing to navigate.
As you are putting up your video RUclips will tell you if there is a claim on any copyright material you are using. It's not necessarily a strike--just that any money you make on that video will go to the copyright holder. But you have the option of changing it out for something public domain before you post.
Facts
I rarely ever have RUclips answer me when I get a claim. I get claims on songs the people that are claiming the don't even own. It's fraud. They get paid for a song they don't even own.
I want to make my own music one day, and I'm scared RUclips won't understand the music is mine even if I bought the copyright on it.
@@shadowdemonaer it's not possible for someone to copyright a song that has already been registered by the rightful composer so you can''t get scammed that way. It's a complicated business but if you register your work with a PRO they will protect your interests. RUclips automatically checks all your material for prior registered ownership. I refer to the music; I don't know if they have the photos covered as well so I try to just use my own work or public domain. Before you put your work out there, register it with a PRO and start now learning all the complex rules of licensing. There are companies that for a small fee will record your original compositions by date; it's not copyright but you can prove when you wrote it should the necessity arise.
@@mickyalberta3484 Thank you for the help
Yes, you are right. It is better to use the companies that already offer music libraries (free or paid) that do not incur in these “issues”.
This is another reason people should just get with a reliable creator that makes his own beats or songs and just purchase the beat or song from them. Make sure it is all documented to be on the safe side.
Really appreciate you taking the time to dive deeper into this topic, clarifying and sharing it with us. Thanks a lot, Nick!
Facts Thank you
Currently still watching. I was skeptical of the new music option back when I first heard because I'm aware of how easy it is to misunderstand little details & run into issues hence I will stick with royalty free music or services such as Epidemic Sound for long form videos, I'd rather not get blindsided with strikes or be forced to share future revenue I may earn. it's tough enough to keep track & remember even the basics let alone what could become a new risk of demonization or strike especially when we have safer options available for music, but I respect RUclips for trying to give us additional options, thanks Nick.
So it’s not really worth using the music in my opinion.
RUclips needs to create the ability for creators to change out the music on their videos without having to delete the video and re-uploading it. This could be made possible to upload the music as a separate file from the videos and audio-like the thumbnails. To ensure the music plays in the right place transitions/spacers could be used. Many music subscriptions have it where if you cancel your membership you lose the right to continue using the music you have used. This just seems wrong to me. Rights to previously used music should be protected from cancellation (by either party) and Rights revoked going forward. I will settle for headache free mediocre music that get caught in that trap. Thanks for letting us know.
Thanks for the video! Also, be careful using "free" music because some folks are collecting "free" music under their own label and giving out copyright strikes. It happened in some of my vids, got strikes months after the video was published.
Yep, that’s a thing.
No wonder why! I downloaded a lot of free music from RUclips library and used them recently and realised some are copyrighted. Such a shame.
Epidemic Sound isn't this complicated. And with CreatorMix and StreamBeats, why would anyone waste time on THIS?
It’s the popular music. Some people want to use known songs in their videos.
Music is the most needlessly greedy industry. Anyone else who wants to create a video essay on a films, photography, or artwork can go ahead and do so without issue under fair use. But god forbid there’s a few seconds of a distorted song playing in the background of a baby shower video, the music industry drops the copyright claim hammer on those parents. Music copyrights are disproportionately aggressive… the fact that you can’t even hum a song, or sing it (cover) in your own voice… come on. That’s the equivalent of not being able to say a movie quote in conversation. It’s ridiculous…
I agree. But, I’m not entirely sure where the line should be.
So one thing I'm curious about. What happens with songs/music which were listed under free music in "Audio Library"? Are those still free to use without worrying about any of this? For example if free songs were used from the audio library in previous videos before this beta program became available, is that still free or now we have to worry about those being copyrighted or claimed etc.? Also moving forward can we still use those free music/songs we used in previous videos or those are now all part of the whole license deal? Thanks :)
According to RUclips, those tracks are still free to use, they are now searchable in the New Creator Music interface.
@@NickNimmin Thanks for the reply!
Too much risk, not enough reward. Not using it.
I use music from you tube library. Will this affect me or others that have past videos with this music?
Thank you for all that you do.
In theory, it should not.
Thanks for breaking this down. Seems too risky and complicated. I don't know why anyone would want to use this in its current state.
im not touching this.. ridiculous they can change policies at any time and bam' your videos are in violation? This is RUclips music and it has expriing licence terms? The way money is split sounds messy.. 'its a mine field of potential problems and needs to be SIMPLIFIED because not everyone is an accountant. Attribution or One time fee makes sense - This is too complicated...
Stopped a little over 6 min because I have to digest this when I have more than a half hour. Nick is spot on when he says YT is pretty bad at information dissemination. Maybe they should consider calling for a volunteer review panel of creators, to look the documents over first, then publish once obvious questions are answered.
Pushed out Waaaaay tooo quick.. needs to be Simplified much more in my opinion
Great! So we are gonna pay for copyrighted music to use it...bummer...i have much luck creating my own music creator profile (with all the legal papers and things);well that's partially a good idea,but if you use a lot of copyrighted songs you're gonna pay a lot,plus there's that pricing depending on the song.
don't even get me started on this one... yeap I got copyright notice 2 months ago because of RUclips music I used 4 years ago when I was starting out.... I am glad I am 100% in with Epidemic Sound ever since.... never ever again
I use Epidemic Sounds for my content. I see no reason to change after viewing this 😉 What a cocked-up idea!!
I agree. I will stick to epidemic sounds.

Nick this is so scary!!!! it is like a minedfield, its so sad for small creators
I know that it's not the most popular opinion, but I'd rather just pay for licensing through a third party (in my case that's Epidemic Sounds). I just don't want to deal with copyright issues at all.

This is good because the music from creators is 100 percent not copyrighted. This is cool ! Regarding about the share, it is fair enough we are using their music then we got to share our share revenue too to our creator. Thanks for the heads up.🎉🎉🎉🎉 God bless us all.
This is far too confusing and still too complicated for me to ever use even if either or both of my channels get monetized. I'll stick to Soundstripe & Epidemic Sound and only very rarely use commercial music in a video. They make it far too complex to even get the music in the first place let alone renew a license, it's set up to have plenty of people mess up by misuse and lapses in licenses.

Thanks Nick, it sounds like using this service is not worth the effort vs other music providers if a license changes without your knowledge or is short.
When I watched the announcement, I had several red flags pop up. Now with your review, I see my concerns were valid.
Yeeaahh. I think I'll stick to CreatorMix and Audiio. This is just too sticky for me. Thank you for making sure we all understand the fine print! 🤗
👊🥳
Can the rules get any more complicated?
Yeah! They can! They Will...
Always!
Thanks for having our backs and explaining the small print.
Any time!
These RUclips updates keeps getting better every day 😊
I even get copyright claims on royalty free music. I've gotten to the point... whenever one of my videos starts getting commercials, I just make the video private and I don't worry about letting people see it anymore. I know it's kind of defeating the point of having a RUclips channel, but I will never be monetized. Even whenever I would start getting a certain amount of subscribers and I wanted them, all of a sudden like 80 would disappear overnight. They weren't unsubscribing 🤦♀️ They were removed by platform.
I've also had some videos that were removed w1ith absolutely no notification as of why. I think it had to do with picsart because I tried to go up against them and get money back and they lied and said they gave me my money back but never really did and continued to withdraw money. I'm wondering if it has something to do with that app and if they have the right to have videos removed. One video removed with no explaination had a clip of a friend that I will never see again. I wish they could at least give me the option to make it private so that I can keep that footage up my friend.
Also, I hate that they remove threats. I clicked on a notification recently because it was a threat, but by the time I got to it, RUclips had already removed it. And obviously I can't access the notification again. Then I can't even screen save it to show it to the police. It's ridiculous how they protect these people.
Thank you for the info, I will continue to purchase music with no strings attached. The RUclips version of licensing is too complex.
Great advice as always Nick. Your channel has been very useful
in growing my channel.
The fact that the creator can change the license agreement AFTER you've purchased it is all the reason I need to literally never use this. I'll stick with Creator Mix, thanks.
👊🤓
I downloaded a $0.00 song and a pop up appeared saying a bunch of licensing stuff that made it sound like ti was not free at all and I canceled it and went back to the old Free Free library. The link to the old audio library is at the bottom of the page.
That might be one of the tracks that are zero up front, but they do a revenue share on the video you license it for.
hi Nick, quick question. can we edit the music from youtube audio library? like changing the vocal/music or isolate the vocal from music 😅
Otaku, that's a good question.
Unsure
Question that's kinda related, You said that licensing for Shorts is different.
I just made a Valorant Gaming Short that included "Eye of the tiger" and the copyright scanner said it found a copyright but the creator said folks could use it on RUclips for free... awesome!
My question is: If the creator decides to change that in the future, what happens to my YT Short?
I'm a small time creator for fun (just over 100 subs) are small creators treated differently for copyright?
With shorts I’m not sure what RUclips has worked out with the companies so unfortunately I don’t have an answer for you.
Serethi, Who is "the creator" in the case of your gaming video? The game company? The original writer of the song?
Game companies do sometimes allow their music included with the game (not always!) to be used in your creative content provided you're not just ripping out the music.
But we all know "Eye of the Tiger" song is included in one of the Rocky Balboa films. Which means the rights to That Song belong to the producers of that movie.
If you are not able to provide a written license of some sort of written proof you are allowed to use a piece of music, you are open to copyright strikes.
Examples : If you use RUclips audio library music, you can screen capture the attributable or non-attributable license on the screen next to the song as you hover your curser over the license next to the song. Keep it in a folder next to the song you download and give the screenshot the name of the song.
Or, if someone allows you to use their music, make sure you have a copy of the type of license they are allowing you to use with it for free. (See Kevin MacLeod site incompetech.com for examples. You can copy and paste each of his licenses for each song, and each songs registration number, so you can always prove he gave you permission to use his song.
Gaming videos have terms of service you can read through and keep a copy of in a folder near your game or somewhere on your device you can quote copy and paste from if you need to prove the game gives you permission to use their accompanying music. Sometimes you can use the background music in created content you make of their game, and Sometimes you can't.
Minecraft Mashups maps may have music copyrighted by Disney, for instance, in which Disney states emphatically that you are NOT allowed to use their accompanied music included in that world game.
A song re-use in a game or cartoon or other media that you know was originally used in a movie or popular TV series should always be suspect to use in your own created content, as you do not have the same licensing arrangement with them as the game or cartoon or tv show does.
I hope this info helps you.
Is epidemic sound your recommendation? Also when you use epidemic sound and pay for the music is it a 1 time fee for the use of the song and is there an expiration period for the use of it?
I do recommend Epidemic Sound as a paid service. It is a subscription service so you can use as many tracks as you need whilst your subscription is active. No per use licenses or expirations. So long as your subscription is active when you upload the video, you are covered.
@@NickNimmin great thank you
I am glad that your channel is constantly evolving. Such video only add popularity
🤓👊
Hi Nick, this was excellent information. Not monetized yet and still in my first year... just crossed 1000+ uploads in 9 months of being on the RUclips platform and I focus on bringing value as well and what you're doing is indeed valuable and greatly appreciated.
You brought to light the pro’s and con’s associated with this and it is my hope that as many people as possible can see this information to be able to make a more informed decision on this creator music service.
Well delivered content. Thank you again for the information and perspective on this. RUclips does provide quite a bit that is good for their community but it is always recommended that people do their own homework to truly understand the offerings as well.
Thank you Nick for the reaction reply. Keep doing what you're doing. Personally, I like to engage with creators that are genuinely looking out for others. Again I appreciate your efforts to keep people informed. Have a blessed day and I hope you've had an enjoyable and peaceful weekend.
Thanks for this explanation. I'm seeing a lot of pitfalls for video creators.
Me too, especially for the ones that are uniformed about all of the details.
RUclips: We now have "Creator Music"!
Me, in my best Lumberg voice: Ummm yeahhhh...we're going to have to go ahead and just pass on that service. Mmmkay. Yeah.
Yeah, I'd rather just stick with copyright free music. Too complicated and risky right now. Thank you for the video
I believe in spreading the wealth with others for me a $1 is a $1 let's spread the wealth and be Happy
That's soooooo broken and discouraging for creators I will not even mention what they do to hip hop music
Thanks so much for making this video, Nick! It answered all of my concerns. Those percentages for revenue sharing just do not make sense to me. Using less than 30 seconds of a song in my hour long+ video should not warrant splitting 50/50. Obviously musicians should get paid for their songs and I'm happy to pay a fair price, but wow, that breakdown just blows my mind. I think I'll be writing and using more of my own music now lol.
100%
🤨 *What happens to the music used for already uploaded videos but the song is listed in the music creator trap* 😏😉 *Very Suspicious* 😉🥶🥵
*Thanks Nick for the info*
As a content creator of over three years and a lot of hard work making videos, I have tried out RUclips music, and yes, it is good music but I have taken a big hit on my revenue since it has rolled out! I would highly encourage people to avoid this and use the music they have put together on here. Learn from my experience and stay away from RUclips music.
Great video Nick Nimmin. Vidiq just did an important video on shorts remixes and I would really like to hear your opinion on it. We need to know if the content we post on our shorts will be protected from others using it. As I understand it people can use and remix our audio from our shorts and there is no way to opt out. But what about the video? I just went and checked remixes using my content, like Vidiq recommended in their video, and found a channel that had ripped and remixed 3 of my shorts. Is this allowed by RUclips? Please help encourage RUclips to be more transparent and clear with their messaging on Shorts because we really can't plan our content strategy for the coming year without some guidance on all of this. Thanks so much!
Watermark your videos with your channel name.. even move it around.. get inventive put on things like street signs, posters, wheels on cars etc.. using keyframing.
@@mySeaPrince_ Good idea! Thanks for that.
@@DistortionsUnlimited
Just looked at your channel... 😻 ...
You are going to have fun with my idea... 👻
Have a look for the film 'They Live' ... and how the signs change.
If you turn off remixing, they can’t remix your video unless they do so without your permission. In that case, you can have it removed.
That said, allowing people to remix your content isn’t going to hurt you. If anything, it will introduce new people to your channel.
@@DeeNimmin Hi Dee, thanks so much for the reply. I can find where to turn off the "Allow people to sample this content" in long form videos but is there a place I can turn off remixing in shorts? I can't seem to find that. Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate it. There is certain content I have that I don't mind people remixing but then there is other content that people have changed in ways that goes against the purpose of my channel. For instance, a lot of the social dance content I post from the Dominican Republic is to give recognition to the culture and educate others on the dance and music. Often people will take a dance video and then add other music to it that was not actually being danced to, sometimes they will add a completely different genre etc. Because I'm trying to provide a platform to education people on authentic music and dance from the Caribbean when it is altered significantly it defeats the purpose.
Sounds like a mess definitely not getting involved. Thanks for your input!
Thanks for sharing this important information. I'm new to posting videos to RUclips and this is very important information. Sounds like over time people could be getting burned on this deal. This creator music sounds like a big gamble, and I'm not sure if it's worth taking the chance after seeing your video.
I’m just using the music that you promote that royalty free and attribution optional. I’m not taking any chances. Creator Mix.
From what I’ve heard so far, this doesn’t seem to make any sense or seem to give any reason or incentive for RUclips creators to use this new feature! 🙈
As a music creator.. all I can say is this is getting a lot stickier.
Thank you once again for keeping us all updated.
Ain't nobody gonna steal your music bro💀
Indeed it is.
Nick, when you speak I listen. Thank you.
My pleasure!
I'm surprised not a lot of people know about this stuff and it's not talked about a lot. I can't find anything about how to be a part of it, how to get in contact with the artist/publisher, and if they can greenlight/give licenses freely outside if Creator Music. In the general phonk genre, they barely offer licenses and revenue sharing, and i see a lot of grey symbols with a lot of songs I see in popular videos. The dumbest thing is the RUclips shorts thing is those still receive monetization in shorts but not regular videos? Seems a bit sus to me.
License Expiry will allow RUclips to remove your video or your entire Channel because of any copyright strikes you receive after license expires.
This will in effect cause content creators to habitually remove videos before their license expires to prevent copyright strikes,
Also creating a clearance of RUclips's servers. Over time there might be a flow of content that is no longer available.
im not touching this.. ridiculous they can change policies at any time and bam' your videos are in violation? This is RUclips music and it has expriing licence terms?

Do I have to hop on one leg also 🤔
Hello great video information Nimmin
What would happen if everyone stopped using music??? Ok, doubtful it would happen......but what if no one used music??
I'll stick with creator mix 😎
I am now 524 subcriber and i wanna thanks you nick for your advice in your videos and thanks for the creator mix music...
No problem!
Just use Creator Mix, everyone.... Nicks music is better anyways... This is too much stuff to worry about after uploading your content.
👊🤓
Does this music thingy include music from the RUclips Audio Library from creator's studio?
The Audio library content will be moved to Creator Music (but should still be free to use).
@@NickNimmin Thank you for responding
This is great Nick. Thanks for the heads up in the (not so) fine print. RUclips really should have made those points more discrete. Maybe they plan to, or maybe they're planning to once they see this...
I think they should have been more clear initially because the way the info was shared it seems less complicated than it is.
Creator music sounds really good at first but after mentioning the other informations that weren't properly/included in the video by RUclips, 13:18 honestly have the same thoughts in mind. I give props for clearing some misconseptions about this new feature Nick.
Epidemic Music, Creator Mix, Harris Heller's Stream Beats and Eposvox's Backing Track are absolutely the only sources from which I would get and use music and/or sound effects.
Epidemic a person pays for and has a clear and easy to understand license.
Harris Heller's Stream Beats is free and does include a license to protect ones self.
Creator Mix is from these 2 Brothers here and I trust them since I learned of them from David Foster. Although I don't know as much about their service and if it includes a license or it's exact terms. I did read about it but I don't recall at the moment.
Eposvox I just trust because he is a good guy that does a lot to help the creator community content wise.
I've used every service I've mentioned in my live streams many times with the exception of Creator Mix, all without issue. The exception meaning I've never used Creator Mix. Not that I don't like, trust them or had issues with. Not at all. It's just I've never got around to using their music... Yet. I surely will at some point.
This new RUclips Creator Music deal has way too many potential 'Gotchas' and ways the rug can get pulled out from under you for me to ever consider it as it is currently presented. That's a big NOT HAPPENING from me.
Personally I mostly use Epidemic as I pay for it. If I wanna switch it up then Stream Beats or Backing Tracks.
Screw FREE Royalty music. They can still file claims and come after your revenue.
Will this be separate from the audio library so that we don't accidentally use content creator music? 😁😁👋👋💖💖
It is getting merged.
@@NickNimmin I hope it's well labeled then. Thanks for the answer.
A big unanswered question is when a license expires, will RUclips notify you 1)what has expired and 2)where it's used?
May I helpfully suggest you keep a record of the titles of your videos, included songs and dates you published, along with dates your licenses expire? You can only rely on yourself. Your administration is up to you and RUclips does not care if you get deleted or not.
I suspect this new Creator Music program of You tube's will cause a lot of content creators to delete their videos or shorts just before licenses expire, clearing You tube's servers for newer content. I also suspect that tons of content creators will be receiving strikes and bans once things get going and licenses start expiring.
@@Marylogical I get the same impression... could it be that YT prefer tutorials and cooking recipes instead of music related channels? might they be thinking of a new sub platform exclusively for song covers, lyric videos, artist compilations and such??
Does this apply to the "Audio Library" in RUclips Studio? I've been using lots of the music.
It's my initial impression that we can use these tracks without sharing revenue. Have I got this wrong?
I was using my own music to avoid copyright strikes, but making music for every video takes time.
I found the Audio Library to be a blessing, but after watching this I'm a bit worried.
In short, no. They will be merging the free Audio Library with Creator Music so you will have to look for the free tracks in amongst the paid ones when it rolls out.
So with the current RUclips audio library where I have used some tracks, not requiring attributation in my video. Am I now at risk that the owners of that music may now require me to purchase a license? I am monetised. Thanks
If so, that's very deceptive IMO. Hope not
Hopefully those same tracks remain the same.
I am sooooo confused! I use background music from karaoke channels and my voice to sing in my videos. They always say I can use it and they will run ads off the RUclips
Those claims are different than what this is based on how it’s being used.
this is ASCAP & BMI.
Thank you for this alert... been learning a lot by trial and error.
Nick I have to take my hat off to you because you get back to your people. Thank you for taking time to respond to people. I don't subscribe to many people at all, but I have subscribe to your channel because you show that you care. Thank you Nick.
I appreciate you! 🤓👊
Thanks for sharing. From what I am seeing, the service seems overly complicated and I would not consider using it within any of my videos. I don't need the headaches involved.
Good Morning Sir , Thanks all the Information.
It is easier to pay any 3rd party copyright free music service like epidemic then go trough all that complicated stuff i wonder how they will be competitive against other providers who are way more flexible with their music licensing
This video provided valuable insights into the potential issues with RUclips's new Creator Music service The video was concise and to the point, making it easy to understand the potential challenges with using the service. Overall, it was a useful resource for anyone considering using RUclips's Creator Music service.
Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it.
I will steer clear of this. I hope we who use the youtube audio library won't be affected.
Those free songs will still be found inside of the Creator Music interface.
@@NickNimmin will they be affected the same as these you spoke of or are they safe to use
Thank you very much for sharing video. I like and interested in your contents. Done supported
🤓👊
Awesome,Thanks for the information, this channel is very helpful!
Happy to help! 👊 🤓
Is it the same for the RUclips Audio?
Thanks. I'm not going to use RUclips Creator Music. It's absolutely *not* worth it to rent licenses by the month, year, or whatever instead of a perpetual license. And to be at the whims of the rights-holder if/when they change their mind and don't want to allow you to use the tracks any more on the terms they originally approved for a revenue-sharing arrangement.
Thank you for the insight into this subject! I've been forced to delete many of my older videos, because all of the sadden they got copyright claims, months after publication of no issues.
I guess it's a good idea to switch back to no music in the background kind of content, just to be safer!
Thank you ❤️ for always informing us small creators we all appreciate your hard work and your brothers hard work
NEWSFLASH! I just got a FAKE copyright violation instructing me to download a pdf file with an exe extension on it! First of all, I am confident that my music is NOT in violation. However, it made me think that I needed to report the error. Meanwhile, a few telltale clues alerted me not to open it. Have others gotten this fake email warning? There was absolutely ZERO indication on my channel, but at first, the kneejerk reaction was to open it and read more. I have screenshots if you want to see this. Thanks for giving us a platform to communicate these things.
Red alert! You picked up on all the warning signs, which is great.
Thanks for all the details here. I'm going to search your channel for a possible update since it's been 9 months because I'm struggling with HOW to actually get the song that allows for revenue sharing without a license, if they don't have the download button for us. The FAQ only says we have to get it from an outside source to download? Well, who is going to waste time doing all that? lol. Thanks again.
I've got no new updates, other than it should be mostly rolled out in the US. Everything should be on platform for Creator Music via the Studio dashboard.
@@NickNimmin I figured that option out. So, once I click on a revenue-sharing song, since there's not a download button, I'd click the artist/ video itself. There is a download button under the artist's actual video on their video page, but it's like a music service that I'm supposed to belong to through RUclips. It asks me if I want to try it, which I don't. lol. That's misleading to me, as I'd think if it's a revenue-sharing license, I should be able to download it just like the other options, albeit with different inconveniences. This option isn't totally fleshed out because although I have access to Creator Music via my RUclips Studio, I apparently don't have access to the download feature under an artist's video that is being classified as revenue sharing without a license. I'll keep utilizing the free songs until they get all this ironed out. Thanks again for always helping us get clarifications!
Thank you so much for this video. So basically, if you use a music service now, keep using the service. These record companies are not going to make it financially feasible for us to use their music.
1st choice - pay for the rights...then find out you have an expiration date and your RUclips video is useless and has to be muted.
2nd Choice - let record company take up to 50% of your revenue. Hmmm, hard pass.
3rd and best - use a service that doesn't take you for everything.
im not touching this.. ridiculous they can change policies at any time and bam' your videos are in violation? This is RUclips music and it has expriing licence terms? The way money is split sounds messy.. 'its a mine field of potential problems and needs to be SIMPLIFIED because not everyone is an accountant. Attribution or One time fee makes sense - This is too complicated...
@Vegas Dtech it's not even a one time fee...the license expires...how is that a thing! What a joke!
@@SouthdownGarage I looked at it and was Immediately turned off as it is basically like trying to sell me music on a limited time basis.. this program isn't content creator friendly... What happened to the free music library RUclips initially gave to us???
As a DJ, am I able to participate in revenue sharing if I have the same song in my personal library as the one available on a creator's music platform. I want to mix 10 songs together.
I have a karaoke channel. Hope this don't hurt me.
I checked out your music service, Nick, but at this point you don't have music that works with my videos. I'll keep checking back though as I assume you're going to continue to add music and sound effects? Thanks for this video- I think I'll probably invest in using Epidemic Sound before I use RUclips music.
Epidemic Sound is great. What type of music are you looking for? We will be building the site out with different genres.
Thanks for looking out so I don’t inadvertently get caught up in the misuses music on copyright crime rings 😊
Thanks. This channel is golden
Thanks! 🙏
Great tips Nick! Those insights are really helpful! I want to ask a question... Is it Okay if I change from Greek to English in my videos? Or will that harm my channel. You are doing amazing work Nick all your efforts for us are highly appreciated!
I would keep the content of the channel in one language. If multiple languages I would split it into two channels .
@@NickNimmin I thought about that as well to be honest I also have 340 videos so its better to keep it in greek
Not advice : Just an idea : what if you started a related channel My Content with English Subtitles and re- uploaded your content with added visual subtitles on the video in the language you want to show it in? Change the titles by only adding a small extra mark, letter, word or short phrase. Example : Cat Video becomes " Cat Video w English subtitles".
@@Marylogical that's a really great idea tbh! I never thought about that. The thing is that this will cost me a lot because there are a lot of videos and I will not practice my English at it's best and see if it suits with the vibe of the video if you know what I mean
Thank you for sharing valuable information. Have a great day. 👍

Dumb question probably but is this different than using the music in the audio library on RUclips?
Buckeye, I read Nick said somewhere else that RUclips will be merging Creator Music with their audio library or vice versa. May I suggest making absolutely sure which music you are choosing to use when you use their service. Always check the little license information button next to each song you're considering using.
I have a habit of screen capturing the print of the "non-attributable" license that is next to the song I've highlighted and keep a copy of the screenshot.
I also Still attribute the song I use in my video to the owner and in my description along with a note that I got it from RUclips audio library using by permission through their non-attributable license, because I don't trust RUclips to know it, and I don't trust the scammers that maybe have ripped the songs from the library and try to copyright strike me or demand money from me.
@@Marylogical wow, thank you so much for the reply and great information. I really appreciate it.
Thanks very much for going over this issue, Nick.
A new habit content creators could start doing, is removing earlier shorts or videos when their licenses are about to expire, unless they are financially able to continue renewing licenses all the time.
Hi there! blockbuster grade I see U getting good at your theme. This is simple entertainment for me though didn't anticipated the ending
Wow.. this is huge. I hope it benefits everyone, but especially the Indie music makers.
