You cant use music from pond5 on youtube for Monetization

very sad...

no body care about it (not pond and not youtube)

? what do you mean

You are actually able to use media from Pond5 in projects that will be used with Youtube's Monetization programs, but due to the fact that some music files have been registered as third party content (usually by the creator of the file), you may receive a notice that your video contains third party content. You can dispute this claim and have your video reinstated by submitting a copy of your receipt and our license agreement along with your dispute. You can find more information on this process http://help.pond5.com/entries/23356833-Youtube-Is-Not-Letting-Me-Use-Your-Media-In-My-Video.

Kennon thanks for the info ...I know it, i try it but youtube decide different!!! (they can do what ever they like) and they reject my clime. So it is a nice try but in reality it dose not work!!!
I hope people will read this post and will not waste time editing videos with music files they purchase from pond5. this is embarrassment for you as a professional to delay your client, edit your project again and do double job for nothing.

PS Kennon you have mach more info than pond5 support. you should work there :-) after 5 email's and i still didn't get right answers from them.

Ooh - kinda scary to be reading this....I'm working with a preview file right now for a client whom I convinced to shop Pond5 for audio for his project. Luckily I'm not editing anywhere near tight yet, so I can drop that idea if need be. Perhaps a note from mommy (the copyright holder) specifying permission granted after purchasing the audio but before publication?

everyone will do what is good for him! but he should know the consequence...
I dont have the time "running" after creators special after i bought the file legally.

The youtube music issue is definitely something we've been trying to find a fix for - the problem is, youtube uses an automatic scanning system to locate third party files so if a user has registered with one of the services youtube uses to scan for content, then it'll ping their system, even if it was bought legitimately on our or another stock site, and it's difficult for us to screen our own site for this content without knowing the exact parameters youtube is using. We continue to look for a more permanent fix.

As I said, in most situations a receipt/license agreement will allow you to dispute the takedown successfully, and in the past has been a good solution for people in this situation.

Eyal, can you forward us your correspondence with youtube about these files so we can see if there's anything more we can do to help?

Also, I've read back through the support logs - the info in my first post here was in a mail a few exchanges ago, and it looks like the initial confusion was because we could not tell if you were having an issue with youtube or had questions about our license agreement, it looks like the body of your question was beneath your receipt, we're sorry if you don't feel you've received adequate support! We're always looking to improve.

All my music files are safe for monetized youtube videos, and it wont trigger a 3rd party claim because I haven't registered them with content id. If you purchased it legally from Pond5 there is a spot to dispute the claim on youtube. If you put the license you got from Pond5 it should be dropped. Sometimes musicians have to put there music in content id because people are stealing and using there music illegally. They might choose to upload to youtubes content id program as a way of flagging usage so people show they purchased a license. It is supposed to be the copyright holder who is allowed to upload to content id so the musician should be the one notified when theres a claim. The bottom line is you have an apprioprate license to use the music so don't worry.

Youtube doesn't decide what gets taken down its the copyright holder (the musician). Basically youtube only does what the copyright owner wants. Every musician on here that uploads to Pond5 agrees to the terms, you'd have to ask to be sure if they have uploaded any music to content id (which is youtubes database of music that they check for copyright violations) but even if it it's nothing to worry about. You bought the license and the musician already agreed to the terms the moment they uploaded the track to pond5. All you have to do is dispute the claim and put the license from pond5 in there and it should fix the problem.

Remember that program is called content id (a YouTube program) and the copyright holder (musician) puts the music in there. If they are PRO affiliated that doesn't mean anything. Being affilliated with a PRO only has to do with cue sheets for broadcasting. As a matter of fact my PRO is BMI and they have never even heard my music as far as I know. When you register the track you only register the title along with your name. That is it. So don't assume if something is getting flagged on youtube it's because a PRO did that. The only reason it did is because of youtubes content id program.

So, it triggers only if a contributor (music composer) have an agreement with third party content ID programm provider.

This is not P5's fault.

Actually, content ID program providers must warn its participants about such confilcts, or demand exclusivity for contracted tracks to completely avoid them.

Blessed is he who can simplify legal and licensing matters so that the average person can understand.
