Youtube Copyright Question
Does anyone use the sims music that plays while in build mode during your videos and upload them to Youtube? I know there were problems with Copyright issues. For the Sims 3 and the Sims 4? Thanks!

- What screen recording software are you all using for monetized YouTube videos? I was looking for something free, but found EZVid and essentially the terms detailed that they get to claim all that is earned because YouTube will recognize the music automatically tied to the video since you can't delete their music. I may be incorrect, but that was my best understanding from the research I've done.
- Thanks @mirta000 :) is there anything else you'd recommend to make these kinds of videos as well?

Yeah because it is game play. The problem their asking about is if you are able to use the Sims background music. If you are using your own music then you should be fine. Unless it is other copyrighted music than you need to look up the information for those songs.- I have used the Sims 3 Main Theme in my videos with no copyright problems so far. I have however gotten copyright claims for music from the radio but I think it was a simlish cover of a song and the original song is what claimed it.

You'll need to request permission :) I haven't done it but I'm thinking about it "Saramore2708;844596" wrote:

I just had a copyright claim from youtube that the song on my sims videos was copyrighted the song wasn't even copyrighted how did this happen.- What I could if I have music in my sims 3 videos and change the music straight away will that work in order to avoid copyright claims.

- The only music I've had issues with in terms of copyright is the new songs that came with Kids Room Stuff. The Tween Pop station.
