Obviously I don't own the copywrite of the music but I always thought it would be OK to have it on the videos. A friend of mine has warned me I could potentially get into trouble for using music on the dance videos that I don't have the copywrite to.
I've noticed that whenever any affiliates of Downblouse Loving use any of the dance videos on their sites to promote Downblouse Loving they always add some other music to the video that, I assume, is not copyrighted or they have a license to use.
I wondered what members of this forums thoughts were on this. What potential trouble do you think I could get into? I have thought that I should just remove the dance videos and add music that I could buy a license to use. |
Hi mrmarlowe,
I am working for 3 different music companies in my mainstream life, and each one of them takes rights and royalties really seriously, and collect royalities every time any of their songs are played. One of the companies owns the rights to tens of thousands of songs, and the technology and network they use to find out when their music is played is extensive.
What you should do is replace all of the music you are using now with royality / license free music asap because if you get caught, it could end up costing you tons.
