Insane Copyright Claims

[MagetheEntertainer]

Hey guys, i've recently done 3 lets plays on my channel, 1 on shovel knight, 1 on super meat boy, and 1 on cat mario. All of them had copyright claims because of "stolen" music, so You Tube removed my monitization from them. Is this normal for you guys to get copyright claims from music that is IN THE GAME that you are playing? Also as a side note the copyright I got from Cat Mario was from Nintendo which doesn't make any sense because that game is not made by nintendo. The songs sound a little bit like the original super mario bros, but they are not nintendo's songs.

Yeah, I got that on one of my Mass Effect videos.

Of course.
Music in video games is still music.

And I'm sure the cat mario game is using some Nintendo soundtracks.

Yes, alot of game music is only licensed for use in the game not re-distributed videos of that game.

Try adding voice over or talk when making videos and also lower the original sound so we can only hear you speak!

The music used in Cat Mario is not by Nintendo nor is it from any Mario game.

Then I don't know.
Maybe it sounds too familiar?[DOUBLEPOST=1409231191,1409230981][/DOUBLEPOST]

I just watched his video, and the stage he plays clearly has Mario 3 soundtrack. (Or at least a remixed version)

I already do that, I usually put my commentary at around -1 db and my game audio at -5 db, I also talk alot during my lets plays so there really isn't even more then 10 seconds where there is no commentary being dubbed over the music.

A lot of the time the copyright claims are a mistake. I received one on one of my Destiny videos but it was taken off within a week after disputing it.
