Q: A: What do I need to know about YouTube Content ID? Content ID (CID) is YouTube’s digital fingerprinting system that allows rights holders to identify and manage their copyrighted music. It protects both Pond5 customers and artists from infringement by preventing fraud, piracy, and people from uploading content they have not purchased. Q: A: Why would I get a Content ID claim if I legitimately purchase stock music? There are rare cases when a composer registers their music into the YouTube Content ID system, and the only way for YouTube to verify you’ve obtained the proper license is by making a Content ID claim. Pond5 requires our composers to release all claims on videos uploaded by Pond5 customers. So if this happens, just dispute the claim, and you’ll be back monetizing your video in no time.
