In my case I would be happy to supply whatever legal evidence is required to satisfy youtube that I own the full rights to all the music I've written.
Perhaps your point is that even running checks like that require manpower that google/youtube simply aren't willing to commit to.
In that case what about a simple transparency type report? Assuming all videos are analyzed by content id, couldn't youtube publish or maintain an archive of songs used in video that would be searchable by any interested party.
- infinitesoup 11y agoThere is a list of songs that content ID knows about here: https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/ad_supported_music https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/ad_supported_music It also looks like they are planning on releasing some tools to better track how people listen to different artists and songs on YouTube: http://www.billboard.com/articles/events/festivals/6509178/youtube-previews-new-data-tool-sxsw http://www.billboard.com/articles/events/festivals/6509178/y...
