sariflor Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 It sounds to me like you may have used the audio track of a Mika song? So Universal are claiming their "ownership" and copyright of it? Which to me makes sense, at the end of the day they own the music, no? I think that Greta is right about it, you should probably put something there along the lines of content owned by them or so... Btw, I don't think that youtube or universal are wrong to try and control this, at the end of the day it's their material, or Mika's... That's just the way it is, no?

Yeah that's fine I have no problems with that but if it was just an imposter or spammer trying to use my vids for thier own advertizing I would not be best pleased, so I just wanted to know if it was real or a spammer or something like that. So is UMG Universal Music Group or something I get confused about who's who. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkly1 Posted May 16, 2008 Author Share Posted May 16, 2008 rightyo I have put (audio UMG©) on the titles of any vids that I have posted that have Mika music on them even the live gig ones, will that do the trick do you think? I was wondering if it's only the videos that don't show it's Mika who is singing because they didn't mention any of my other ivds where it was live gigs.

Blue Sky Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Do you have to put the copyright sign in the title? Or only in the paragraph about the video? Cuz I would have thought in the title would attract other trouble....I don't want to see any more MFC accounts closed!! It is interesting what Greta posted, I didn't know that before. They will have a BIG job getting all their copyrights written up, imagine how many Universal Artists are out there being used on youtube!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that is why I wondered why they picked on vix's video, it was even sent to Mikas myspace for his competition last year and for the Bebo one too and they didn't say anything about it then...oh well it's no big deal if they want a copyright on it then I have done that but if its not a good idea to put it on the title then maybe I should put it in the paragraph...oh dear how confusing.

I honestly don't know if there is any adv or disadv in having it in the title. But my big thing was always to draw as little attention to vids as possible so that the big corporate thingies don't swoop down and demand deletion!! (like putting MTV video music awards in the title is just begging MTV to come and get you!) So I wonder how they have found the soundtrack. Scary really!!
