If it's intended for personal consumption it's fine. It's not copyright infringement to hear my neighbor's stereo if it's a bit loud. It is if he's using it commercially for hosting a block party selling tickets it's a problem.

Ah, but if your neighbor's stereo is faintly audible in the distance while you record a screencast, your video will get taken down off Youtube very quickly.

  Thats because Youtube doesnt want to broadcast copyright work in any way as a courtesy for rights holders' trade groups that have asked, not because of regulatory or legal consequences though.

  Posting it publicly to YouTube is no longer for personal consumption. Do it with a private video, it won't be taken down.

    That’s not true. Why do you say that? Content id takes down private videos too.

      Apologies, I had done that in the past and it didn't get any copyright strikes despite using obviously copyrighted audio. I guess they've since changed their policies. From a copyright perspective there's no issue with uploading your own personal videos with copyrighted material in it to a site like YouTube so long as they're still private. I guess YouTube just assumes if you're uploading it there, you're going to eventually want to make it public. IMO they should just show the results of their scans to clue you into potential copyright claims but not actually do enforcement if the video isn't available publicly. Note: an unlisted video is still a public video.

Nah, don't kid yourself. Tech lik€ this is NOT fine. You're a douche if you deploy this. It may be technically interesting but just a dick move to use it.

  I was just speaking from a copyright perspective here. If you're causing interference on your neighbor's radio you're causing a problem, fully agreed.
