30 | Just Dance Streamers | can no longer safely stream on Twitch | ||
31 | DJ Streamers | figure out a new brand | ||
32 | Guitar Hero Streamers | this will get worse | ||
33 | ||||
34 | Level 2: Potential Risk (More Safe from DMCA / Automated Scripts, Still at Risk) | |||
35 | TYPES OF MEDIA (GREATEST TO LEAST RISK) | NOTES | ||
36 | Foreign and International KPOP, JPOP | many have US-based record labels, highest chance of DMCA outside of red category | ||
37 | Semi-popular Youtube videos without agency or record representation | could be copyrighted later, and you CAN be struck for things in the past | ||
38 | Music that shows no "copyright attribution" on Youtube | EXAMPLE: https://imgur.com/a/PTYCF8D | if you see this on the bottom of the Youtube Info section - it is copyrighted, do not play these can be retroactively claimed | |
39 | Low-fi, chillwave, independent youtube playlists | you can still get DMCA'd for these, but it's unlikely | ||
40 | ||||
41 | BELOW THIS POINT - CHANCE OF DMCA PROBABLY FAR, FAR LESS THAN 1% | |||
42 | Classical Music & Music before the 1900s | some is public domain - some isn't, do research | ||
43 | Video game music | almost 100% ok - automated bots can't tell the difference between in-game and out of the game | ||
44 | Indie artists, small youtube channels, independent artists | many indie artists are available via email! they love exposure and will give you permission! if you ask | ||
45 | ||||
46 | Level 3: 100% OK TO STREAM / YOUTUBE | |||
47 | TYPES OF MEDIA | NOTES | ||
48 | MUSIC YOU HAVE PERMISSION TO BROADCAST | see my example: https://imgur.com/a/5p5j4Es | ||
49 | "Creative Commons" or "DRM-Free" Verified Music | |||
50 | Copyright-free databases | be careful, some say they are copyright-free but aren't | ||
51 | "Public domain" music | ^ | ||
52 | Permission from Artist (written) | the best option | ||
