Youtube sends me a message that they won't monetize my video because I need to verify I own the rights to the music in the video. THERE'S NO MUSIC IN THE VIDEO FSFAFSAFAF Here's a tip, when you upload a video give it the most generic name and avoid all tags. ALL TAGS. Then monetize, and change the title.
They bullied me about some old MEGA-CD games I have uploaded their theme song/opening video. I contested and mentioned that the video used the exact video and audio as output by the game console. Unedited. They removed the restriction. About monetizing, I tried to enable it just to stop them from dumping a lot of messages on my gmail inbox. Once it stopped I started to get these scary warnings about monetizing on copyrighted contents. I went through all my videos and disabled any form of monetizing. I just wanted them to stop spamming me about it.
You Tube wouldn't monetize some of my Retro Core shows but would with others. The ones that were not approved were all uploaded within a 3 month gap. After that all new uploaded videos were monetize again. It think they just pick shit at random
Good that I'm a YouTube Partner from before July 2012; YouTube never bothers me about any 'Non-Original' Audio or Video Content, I earn more, and I still have more features than the Partners from July 2012 or after.
I have a video with 6K+ views that I have considered monetizing, but I've held off so far, because it has a fake Denny's logo in it. What happens if there's a copyright issue with a video? Does it just get pulled, or are there legal consequences as well? I'm actually thinking of just taking this video down myself, because it's incredibly stupid, and I'm not sure if I want it to represent me on the internet. I never thought it would get that many views.
If you have no permission for it, and the owner of that Logo will find it out, you'll get a Copyright Strike (3 of them, and you're Banned). Deleting it is the best option, or you can just ask the original owner of that Logo, if he or she finds it alright, but I guess it's already to late.
