A policy preventing Copyright owners from making $ on manual claims for:
Short song clips (ex: 5 sec of a song)
Unintentional audio (ex:
from passing cars)
Claimants can still block monetization or the video itself, but timestamps help you edit out the claim.

This is an important step (with more to come!) towards a better Copyright system for creators & music partners long term.

Do you plan to restore the ability to remove the audio from a video that has more than 100k views? This limit seems arbitrary.

I'm one of the earliest YouTube user, having posted the first Super Mario 64 video ever on YT on August 27th 2005. Another video from 2008 after amassing 600k+ views over 6 years before Nintendo decided to make a claim on the audio. I would remove the audio but you won't let me.

In the gaming industry Nintendo is usually a special case. Most gaming companies don't make copyright claims because they are dependent on the creators to advertise their products. That's free word of mouth advertising, and if they start claiming people will stop making the vids
