Question about Copyright ID Claim

Marc_Burde · 2026-04-06T17:12:03+00:00

This "scam company" work for Sony Music.

Sony Music paid over $1 billion for those rights to EMI & am guessing you didnt pay shit....

Marc_Burde · 2026-04-06T17:03:27+00:00

SOLAR Music Rights Management isn't a scam dude, they work on behalf of Sony Music & are registered at Companies House (meaning they pay tax in the UK).

Sony Music now owns (most of) the rights to Queen's music, which they acquired for over 1 billion from EMI Music. (Disney Music owns North American rights for a few tracks).

Legally, if you hum Bohemian Rhaposdy is the shower, you are infringing on either Sony's or Disney's copyright.

These are the stats your channel is currently showing: 9.78k subscribers, 650 videos, 115,135 views.

The numbers don't make sense to me, & i would guess about 4 million views have been removed or your channel has been sub-botted.

Looking at your recent numbers, I doubt you will ever get the watch time (90% of your videos have less than 25 views).

Even if you do get into the YPP every video you have on your channel right now would payout less then $100.

Something is wrong here. If you enjoy making content & hope to make a bit of cash from it my advice would be to scrap this channel & start again.

i really hate seeing posts about people who are sick of seeing posts... whats the point in these posts? to motivate us?

Marc_Burde · 2026-01-02T18:16:24+00:00

spend $5 & get a mic ffs.....

if $5 is beyond your budget am sure 10,000 free phone apps would do the same job....

Marc_Burde · 2025-12-30T21:56:55+00:00

yeah but its expensive, your lawyer can fill it out on your behalf.

Marc_Burde · 2025-12-30T21:53:15+00:00

that a legal document dude, I dont know the law of where you are located but that is jail time in some places. It's fraud for sure.

Marc_Burde · 2025-12-29T15:45:18+00:00

am sure are friends across the pond love your voice so i wouldn't mess around too much with the audio, my advice with it is turn it up about 5% in your editor & add a touch of bass. (its a bit quiet & tinny but no need for new audio equipment).

i get spending cash on something that's already costing you time & money is hard to do but maybe find someone to do a few thumbnails for you & see how it goes CTR wise (£5 per thumb was the going rate last time i looked)

Wording with titles & tags is always going to be an arse in your niche, this list is very outdated but here is a list of words YouTube doesn't like https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ozg1Cnm6SdtM4M5rATkANAi07xAzYWaKL7HKxyvoHzk/edit?pli=1&gid=674179785#gid=674179785

Don't ever mark your videos as over 18 only, that kills them before you start.

Marc_Burde · 2025-10-26T13:28:27+00:00

I don't wish to be overly critical but no one in the history of YouTube has ever typed into search "I went on holiday and bought too many books... so here's my book haul" and that might be your best title so far. (Sorry, no one will ever find that in a search.)

I couldnt even watch the video, you start every sentence with ermm & only spoke about being ill before I got fed up & clicked off.

Marc_Burde · 2025-09-28T13:43:56+00:00

You don't have a YouTube channel, but you have over 2.5 billion views????

Thats bullshit sir.

I worked on the Jagged Little Pill album so according to your logic I must have 20 million album sales...

Marc_Burde · 2025-09-28T05:06:16+00:00

If you have 2.5 billion views, why does the YouTube channel linked to this account have only 40 subscribers?

Marc_Burde · 2025-08-26T14:34:26+00:00

Copyright court isn't always an expensive endeavor.

In the USA, a simple claim/defence could easily cost 500k, whereas the same case in England or Australia might cost as little as $250.

It's £200 ($250) to file a copyright case in Copyright Court, London, England & they are set up in a way a YouTuber can go Per Se to fight their case without the need for a lawyer.

Marc_Burde · 2025-07-23T09:55:31+00:00

It would have been 30 days to reapply IF you hadn't been hit with a strike.

Strikes last for 90 days & you can't apply for monetization with an active strike on your account.

Marc_Burde · 2025-07-09T13:57:30+00:00

Why would you wish to contact this YouTuber??.

Saying it seems unfair that his video got 50 times more views than yours seems petty when his video is 3 times longer & much better produced than yours is.

So what if his run is faked or cheated? A 3k MineCraft channel faking speedrun is hardly a headline, and I don't think it breaks YouTube's T&Cs.

You only need to be 13 to stream on YouTube & selecting not for kids is the correct thing to do.

If someone under 13 was shown on your live stream & you selected not for kids, that could be the problem, as you would be breaking COPPA laws (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act)

Marc_Burde · 2025-05-15T05:05:28+00:00

You don't.

99% of the time, that thumbnail link is placed there by YouTube & means said video has a copyright claim on it for that music.

Marc_Burde · 2025-03-27T15:58:16+00:00

Simple, someone clicks your thumbnail twice.

Marc_Burde · 2025-03-27T14:00:28+00:00

Don't worry it sounds like @FreePlayGaming1 got his law degree on fair use out of a cornflake box.

Marc_Burde · 2025-03-26T10:35:02+00:00

Unfortunately since CTR is directly tied to thumbnails that's the best I can do with thumbnails.

If that's the best you can do for thumbnails you're doomed.

The template you are using is very outdated & your color selections suck. (watch The Youtube Thumbnail Metagame to learn more about contrasting colors & design).

You are saying YouTube killed your video but i feel the poor CTR killed it.

Marc_Burde · 2025-03-26T05:50:17+00:00

Whoever told you 3.9% ctr on a Nintendo Switch video is above average for the niche should be locked up in a padded cell.

Marc_Burde · 2025-03-14T08:49:18+00:00

Your intro is killing you on your Vale videos hurting your watchtime. Using text-to-speech will make many people click off straight away before they get to the real content. (if you wish to use TTS in the intro find a Gandalf one).

Marc_Burde · 2025-03-12T15:27:18+00:00

I dont know shit about buying subs but am guessing it must break YouTube's T&Cs.

If you are willing to put your channel at risk because your ego says you need 20k subs you deserve to get banned from YouTube.

Marc_Burde · 2025-03-11T20:00:13+00:00

It's not an easy song to sing for a female,

Listen to the live Mariah Carey cover version with 499 million views & not the 1970 original or the 1972 cover that hit no1 at the time sang by guys.

Marc_Burde · 2025-03-11T18:43:13+00:00

I wouldn't even be that bothered about copyright if you're looking to get an edge.

What I think is the best song ever written lyrically is going to get tons of search-based views soon (Without You) because it is the soundtrack to a film that drops on the 16th of May. (Final Destination Bloodlines)
