What is Copyright Material and How to Use YouTube Free Music from YouTube Library

To earn money on YouTube, we need to create our own videos and meet all the YouTube rules and monetisation eligibility requirements.

You can't use someone else's video in the content you create. Similarly, you can't use someone else's music either, as that counts as copyright material.

However, you can use it under the fair use policy. More information about fair use is provided below.

When creating videos, you can use music or songs from others, but keep in mind that any revenue generated from those videos will go to the owners of the songs, not to you.

This means that even if your channel doesn't face any issues, you won't earn any money from it due to copyright claims.

So, when you're making a video and need background music, it's a good idea to use the music available in the YouTube library.

This music is completely free, and any revenue from your video will go to you.

If you accidentally use someone else's music and get a copyright claim, you can simply remove that music and replace it with YouTube free music from the YouTube library.

How to Remove Copyright Claim and Strike on YouTube videos

What is Fair Use Policy:

Fair use policy allows you to use a few seconds of someone else's copyrighted material in your video.

This should serve as a reference. It can be used for educational or entertainment purposes. However, the fair use clip or music should not harm or troll the original video owner.

Even if you use just one second of their video, the owner has the right to claim copyright.

Therefore, you can use someone else's video or music under fair use to generate revenue, as long as it does not affect anyone negatively.

How to Download YouTube Free Music without Copyright Claim from YouTube Audio Library

To upload a video on YouTube without any copyright claim issues, we shouldn't use other people's music or songs. Instead, we can use the music available in the YouTube Audio Library.

• First, you need to open YouTube Studio in desktop mode on your mobile browser.

• Use the link https://studio.youtube.com and enter your YouTube channel's email ID and password to access YouTube Studio. Make sure to open it in desktop mode.

• Now your channel's dashboard main page is open.

YouTube Studio Dashboard

• On the left side of that dashboard, there will be a music symbol option. You need to click on it to enter.

• All the music and sound effects in the YouTube audio library will be displayed.

YouTube Audio Library

• You can click on the search or filter library option to choose different types of music and download them.

Search and filter audio library

• The filter option will have choices like Track title, Genre, Mood, Artist name, Duration, Attribution not required, and Attribution required.

Track Title:

To find a specific music track, we can use this option to search by its name.

Genre:

We can choose the type of genre of music we want and then download music that fits that genre.

Mood:

We can choose and download music that fits our desired mood. There are options like Angry, Bright, Calm, Dark, Dramatic, Funky, Happy, Inspirational, Romantic, and Sad. We just need to select the one we want and download the music we need.

Artist Name:

This option is used to search for a specific music track by using the name of the artist.

Duration:

We can search for music based on how long we need it to be. For example, if we want music that is longer than 5 minutes, we can filter the results here and download music that is over 5 minutes long.

Attribution Not Required:

This option allows us to use the music we choose without needing to give any attribution. We can use it directly in our video without needing to provide any credits.

Attribution Required:

When using this option, we need to give credit for the music we choose. This means we have to mention the copyright owner of the music in our video description.

So, it’s better to use the option that says "Attribution not required" to use the music we want without having to give credit.

Other Options in YouTube Audio Library

Sound Effects:

We can choose and use the sound effects we need from this YouTube audio library. If you click on the sound effects option, you'll find a lot of different sound effects available for download.

Starred:

By using the Starred Option, we can save important music by marking it with a star, so we don’t have to search for it every time we want to listen.

To play any specific music we need, just click the play option next to the music name, and it will start playing.

Download Music from Audio Library

There’s also a download option on the side. If we like it and think we might need it later, we can go ahead and download it.

That's it! We have downloaded the music we need. Now, when we edit the video, we can use this music to get the video ready. Later, when we upload it to YouTube, there won't be any copyright issues.
