In this version of the tragedy of the commons, the youtubers themselves are the resource headed for exhaustion.
> the revised video had 5 new copyright claims even before upload processing was complete!
Maybe there's an opportunity for an integrated offering of licensed music and lawyers to defend the licensee against bogus takedowns?
- golemotron 5y agoThe fate of youtube has always been to become television. Countering the Tragedy of the Commons eventually raises the cost of creating and engaging with user-generated content relative to commercial content.
- judge2020 5y agoThose aren't claims, it's automatic Content ID. In this case YouTube has every right to prevent music from being uploaded and can prevent you from removing the Content ID claim, even when you have a license/it's in the public domain, because YT isn't abiding by or invoking the DMCA at all. It's like saying "guitar tryouts just don't play stairway to heaven" - you can forbid it even in the absence of AT&T sending a legal cease & desist your way.
