Good Day Peeps!!
So I prefer perpetual licenses, but I started thinking about the subscription mode they offer, and I see that it has a "HD/4K Unlimited Royalty Free Stock Footage" feature.
My question is, what would happen if say you use that stock footage on multiple projects and upload them somewhere like YouTube, would you get Copyright Striked if you ever decide to end the Subscription?!?!
Thank you for your time and help ;D
Happy Holidays
@Narax Hi, If it is Royalty Free that will be the media itself & nothing to do with your subscription once you upload, who's to know who it came from. The problem with any 'Royalty Free' footage is that it might get a copywrite claim & you may have to go through the red tape of claiming it's not, submitting forms etc.. then waiting for a reply. Got to be honest I've only dealt with music/audio, even tho it was Royalty Free music it got flagged, I had to go through all the red tape, by the time it was passed I had already had the majority of views on YT (which for me is often in the first 48hrs - to the first wk) but no ads were put on because of the copywrite flag. 😒 I lost money or should I say I didn't earn,
This was many many yrs ago, things might have changed but I just don't put any music on my vids,
YT recommends after uploading leave the privacy at 'Unlisted' until it is checked & processed properly, that way you don't loose that initial burst of views.
Limitation that may affect you is anything you download must be used (published?) during the time you hold the subscription. It's not for broadcast, no cable/satellite tv, no streaming services, no feature films.
There's some overlaps such as Youtube music which is a streaming service, if you upload a music video to YouTube that's fine, but possibly not fine when that video is played via Google Music to a Google Hub, phone or TV. You appear to give google permission to play your video on YouTube Music by uploading to YouTube, I've seen some of my own on there. I doubt any of that matters, Youtube, Vimeo and the like are fine.
