Youtube Needs To Buy Copyrights of Some Music

Imagine the creativeness, if youtube could buy some music copyrights and give the music to its users. If you are a you-tuber, your mind would be blown away, for creating your own unique music isn’t a piece a cake!
If you making videos, you will surely need sound. And making videos for fun or for making a few extra money as a partner or even just putting your videos there for nobody to see, you will want some sort of sounds or music played to your clips (video)
Those who have the wallet, can buy music and use it even in commercial project.
But even if a research were to be conducted today, it would be hard to prove that not even 10% of the youtubers could have any music.
Everything is about money on the Internet. Once, I needed a sound of Punch for a commercial video, and guess how much the price tag was ? just $3.00 for a less than 3 seconds of a punch sound.
While I tried finding all free stuffs, the license type always comes as “Just another brick” in the wall. Often it takes time, some time even months to hear from composer to obtain his/her approval and God knows how long the approval will last or even the license type will change on the web page where the music is offered to us. In fact, a few days ago, a web page had bunches of mp3 as “Share Alike” and all of a sudden it went to “Share but Not for Commercial Purpose!!” I cried that day! Reason? had a bunches of shots taken thinking about a particular music I could use on my project. Now what? Delete all the movies or create yourself. It is a reality that many youtubers do what I do - buy some musical instrument and play it… create some sounds, record and then add to our projects. It takes time, but we are not restricted, hence our videos might live long.
Youtube and it’s founders need to just put one site or a list of music on its site itself which would be released as FREE (in Free term for both personal and commercial use) and let the creativity thrive.
Imagine how many youtubers could play with those music, mix, remix and the amount of love and respect that youtube would get?
I am beginning to think that it’s just a matter of days or months before we’ll see that site!
A site with bunches of sounds and music in various formats offered by Youtube.com, given to the world-wide audience in the name of “CREATIVENESS”.
Google / Youtube, can’t you just buy some songs for your users ?
Am I Dreaming ?

A nice article you might like to read, but against the post or relevant. Youtube = 100 million video views per day should now buy some music. Don’t you think so. Can you imagine the vibe when the music is given to users with FULL ACCESS.
