Why using copyright free music is important for beginners involved within media 

Assuming your content is destined for social media, chances are it’ll be deleted or blocked from during the upload process. Most of the major players like YouTube and Facebook have sophisticated content ID systems in place to detect commercial music in videos and block them before they ever see the light of day.

So hard-line are these systems that even if you do have authorization to use that catchy Kings of Leon or Taylor Swift tune, social media will preemptively block your content anyway, leaving the onus on you to prove that you do indeed have rights to the featured song. This a process that can take weeks, sometimes months, to resolve.

In fact, in some instances where copyrighted music has managed to make it through the cracks, the video containing it has not only been removed, but the individual or individuals who published it have had their entire YouTube channels deleted and their monetization privileges suspended.

Harsh, right? But believe it or not, this is actually the best case scenario should you find yourself getting sprung for breach of fair use. In the worst case scenario.

Using copyright free music causes no legal issues and insures your video will stay on the platforms you post it to.
