Long-form videos with licensed music will soon be monetizable on YouTube.

During yesterday's Made on YouTube event, a new program dubbed 'Creator Music' was announced.

This provides creators with a large repertoire of popular music to use in their videos without fear of being demonetized.

When employing licensed music, creators have a few alternatives.

  • Keep 55% of the earnings if you license the music.
  • Distribute revenue to license holders.

If creators want to share their money with artists, YouTube says the 55% split will be prorated based on the amount of licensed tracks in the video.

According to YouTube representative Susan Cadrecha, one track has a split of 27.5%, while two tracks have a split of 18.3%.


Other deductions, such as performance rights fees, apply to videos.

YouTube hopes that this agreement will provide producers more freedom in using licensed music on the platform.

To avoid being demonetized, most serious creators rely on royalty-free music for their channels.

The new YouTube Music Creator program is currently in beta in the United States, with plans to expand to additional countries later this year.


"Creators have often informed us that selecting the proper tune isn't the difficult part.

It's actually figuring out how to license it," says Amjad Hanif, YouTube's VP of Creator Products.


So far, YouTube has agreements with at least 50 labels, publishers, and distributors.

However, none of those transactions appear to include the major three labels (UMG, WMG, and Sony).


In addition to this new program enabling producers to begin using licensed music on YouTube, the platform hopes to make it easier for creators to make money on YouTube Shorts.

"Music can power that emotional connection between artists, creators, and all of their fans - and we want to increase this by giving creators more options to work with, while also assisting artists in meeting fans where they already are-right here on YouTube," Hanif says.

What Are Spreads and Bid-Offer Spreads?

A spread in trading is the difference between the asking and closing prices for an asset. Since the spread determines the prices of both derivatives, it is a crucial component in CFD trading. Brokers, market makers, and other providers frequently display their prices using spreads. This implies that a purchase of an asset will always cost a little more than the market's base price. While the selling price will always be a little less. In the financial world, spread can refer to a variety of things, but it always refers to the difference between two prices or rates. It is also a type of trading strategy, such as an option spread. This is done by buying and selling the same amount of options with various strike prices and expiration dates. Offer-Bid Spread The spread that is added to the price of an asset is known as the bid-offer spread, which is sometimes referred to as the bid-ask spread. The bid-offer spread reveals the price range at which buyers and sellers are interested in an...

60 billion pound financing package for English authorities

Michael Gove, the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, has today (19 December 2022) agreed a nearly £60 billion package for councils in England for the next fiscal year, ensuring that councils can continue to provide essential frontline services. The settlement means councils throughout England will receive an additional £5 billion, a 9% increase over last year's settlement, as the government continues to support councils and public services despite mounting financial pressures. The agreement for the following year contains a one-time Funding Guarantee that ensures every council in England will get at least a 3% increase in core spending power before any local decisions are made regarding council tax. Alongside this, the government confirmed today a new £100 million scheme for councils to safeguard the most vulnerable households from council tax hikes, fulfilling the campaign pledge to protect local taxpayers from excessive increases. Social care is also a priority, with the govern...

Wells Fargo settles with the CFPB for $3.7 billion for consumer abuses.

Wells Fargo and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau reached a $3.7 billion settlement involving customer abuses related to checking accounts, mortgages, and auto loans, with some of the misconduct occurring as recently as this year. The business was sentenced to pay a record-breaking $1.7 billion civil penalty and more than $2 billion to 16 million customers, according to a statement from the CFPB. The San Francisco-based bank stated in a separate statement that many of the settlement's "necessary activities" have already been accomplished. "The bank's illegal behavior caused billions of dollars in financial harm to its customers, and thousands of customers lost their automobiles and homes," the agency said in a press release. The bank improperly charged fees and interest on auto and mortgage loans, wrongfully seized consumers' vehicles, and misapplied payments to auto and mortgage debts. The breadth of malfeasance outlined by the CFPB demonstrates ...
