Copyright is freaking annoying.
I get that Youtube doesn't exactly want people uploading an artist's work and claiming it as their own.
But it really bugs me when I post a video of me working out at the gym, and microphone picks up the music the gym is playing, and as a result my Youtube channel has ads on it. I could understand if I was posting full songs, but these are snippets, with the noise of a gym- grunting, racking weights, etc. over it. I could try and say it's Fair Use, but I'm not even using it!
It's annoying that I'm honestly considering dubbing my exercise videos or stripping the audio simply because the music industry is scared of me.
