I have a song I would like to allow anyone to use in any YT vid, and would like to encourage them to do so by allowing them to keep all revenues with no content claims. My aggregator (company through which music is submitted to Spotify, etc) has a system that lets me create YT claims. I have contacted them, and they have no mechanism to whitelist everyone automatically. I can whitelist individual videos or channels, but this per video intervention isn't sustainable at scale.
The common sense thing to do would be to simply not enroll the song in their collection system at all. It would seem, though, that anyone who wishes to commit fraud could then step into that void and place a claim on the song which would still then create a claim on all those who I have told could use it for free. At first glance, this seems especially problematic as their claim would predate any action by me, and might create a real headache for me every time someone places a fake claim since I have no pre-existing one.
I've been off YT for a while, and looking to become involved again, so a bit behind the latest developments. Is there a way to allow anyone to use my music and guarantee that they will not be hit by any claims for the music (whether by me or by someone else committing fraud.
Also interested to hear if there are any other types of issues I may not be forseeing that others have experienced, and any general strategies for minimizing such issues.
