I have a question about music copyright for future videos: Can I upload a video with a background song from a popular artist/group? (Metallica or Queens Of The Stone Age for example)

As Donnie uses a lot of original non in game music, you should ask him.

I assume it is related to where you are from. I'm astonished myself that non of my videos got a copyrightstrike so far. I guess here in germany it has something to do with the deal the GEMA made with Youtube. Because the GEMA was very aggressive running wild on youtube, youtube/Google made a deal with them to not influencers because of GEMA-blocked videos. (The GEMA is a german organization that collects money in the name of musicians and artist. The "club" sometimes can get a real pain in the arse, esp. for club- and discoowners. They also abused their "power" on youtube for a long time.)

Another thought is that it depends on if you monetize your videos or not. Monetized videos might get earlier striked than non-monetized. I would never monetize my videos, even if i get 100k subs or more and might get a good amount of money through it, because it limits my creative freedom for the videos. I know a couple of letsplayers who keep popular music strictly out of their videos, because they fear videobans and to lose money.

You can upload your videos with the music, but it may be advertised !!!

As far as i know the advertising has nothing to do with popular music in the video. Only monetized videos should have ads at the start or in between.


btw: congrets to all that very good laptimes.

@Luny: Again thank you for posting my video.

@MadMan: I accidently pressed on quote than on edit. LOL and Sorry, please delete all posts except the last one.

Protected music has been in my last video
and in the video manager that was visible.
I have made language in English and made a screen.
You can read if you have used protected music.
That's how the Gema and YT have ended their quarrels in Germany.
As it is in other countries, I am not, but think will be like
  in Germany
Here is my suggestion : render the song test with a low-quality cover.
This is done in 1-2 minutes.
Then upload to YT.
Wait a short time and look in the video manager if there are problems.
If something is not ok, then you can see.
Then delete the video again.
I know this is a bit of work, but that's the only way to tell what's in there
individual countries require the law.

Not an easy place to go 10/10's but tried my best and had abit of luck from the traffic gods on the 2nd half of the challenge as there was a Police chase and the traffic didn't respawn afterwards.

So 3:11.196 is the new time to beat.

Did my first run at it today.
Came in at 3:16;335

Dafuq, is this a bug or was it your time being the same as mine ...

[MadManCK]

Hahaha

How is that even possible, after over 3 minutes of hard racing.

I guess i need to drive 1/100 of that time to fix your little problem...

[Korulax]

Here's my head to head race with Bear.
But I think the last word is not spoken yet.

It's just crazy that two completely different runs can be the same exact time ..
