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.
You know what would be awesome? Being able to make money with less then 1000 subscribers again . But you guys decided to stop allowing people like me monetize b Videos
This is an important step (with more to come!) towards a better Copyright system for creators & music partners long term.
