Looks like they are at a crossroads in regards to submitting content on Youtube. They cannot stump up the money for music licenses and as a result have ended up with a copyright strike, and have had to delete dozens and dozens of videos to comply.
I suspect it won't be too long before they end up going down the paid subscription route, they have said themselves it's an option.

I saw their post about deleting loads of videos due to the people they had deals with regarding use of music changing their t's and c's. Think they said one person/company wanted £5000 a year for just one of their videos
I'm sure they will be alright and just post content that doesn't have music that will cost them money

How can you make a fishing video without Drum n' Bass?

Todays target market dont even need the spelling to be correct on the packaging, most only need a few emojis.

it's mad that something like a you tube channel can generate enough income for them to earn a wage,yet your income can potentially be taken away in the blink of an eye...imagine going to a bank with a business plan and said we've got this business idea but it can be taken away at any time by a third party we have no control of....is it quite possible the end of making a living from you tube is nearly over..I don't know enough tbh it just seems a shame that this could happen to them
In general music is used as background ambience in order to complement the narrative or enrich content within scenes, unfortunately it seems more effort is put into creating a soundtrack of whatever is deemed cool and street to push a image instead of making content that is actually credabil and relevant

It's not anything new, they will have known about this ages ago, you cant expect to use someone else's creativity for free to aid you in making money. Lots of music has disappeared off YT over the last few years and the video's using it.

Exactly that, no you can't. Surely a great opportunity to use some up and coming local musician's and do a deal.

As Dave Lane does. His son is a very talented guitarist. So works on all fronts.

The music and production on all of his videos is dreadful, but we don't care as it's Dave Lane. His demographic is very different to C&A though.

I'm not surprised TBH.
Fishing video content like theirs, doesn't need music.
That's what you get when you add extras to your own footage.
3rd party T&C's can change, and that has to be legally adhered to.
Gonna have a utube knock on effect, royalties 💰 what must everyone else be thinking, Alan Blair and co. Love a bit of Drum and Bass.

Record labels and artists cant make money from selling records anymore. So there starting to look for other revenue streams instead.
I looked at the post they put up on Facebook, and i can't see why they need to delete a load of there vids over music issues. Surely removing the music from there edits would do

It sounds like they have built a business in which they decided not to pay some of their suppliers and now they are being asked to pay their business may not be viable?
Given that You Tube have openly spoken about having algorithms that detect copyright material and informs the owners this was foreseeable.
I wish them well and think that they seem to be good guys but it is literally no different from a TV channel taking their You Tube videos and broadcasting them without paying or asking for permission. As content creators you would think that they would understand this?
