I have a GTA V video I want to but some short music clips. The longest one is about 30 second. I just want to know if there's a magic length of time before youtube tags your account?
I've always heard people say 15 seconds, but don't quote me on that.
Any unapproved use of music that you don't have permission for constitutes infringement. Every artist handles this differently. I recommend getting music from a composer (like me) or downloading your music from royalty-free music libraries like AudioMicro.
The automatic system is from what I hear is 12 seconds, but copyright holders can still put in a claim. But as @Allegro1225 says if you don't hold the rights for the content then this is infringeing on a artists copyright rights, some artists don't mine and some are stritct. You better of using audio from royalty-free music libraries (Which Freedom! has a nice choice). like Position Music or AudioMicro or ask an artist directly themselves.
Actrually as far as I know it is, but it depends on which recording you used, sadly due to copyright laws being more iffy back then, then there are now I can't 100% say it is.
But it looks more like Sony own the rights to the 1967/68 recording, but like I say I not 100% sure on this.
