How can YT channels breakdown movies and trailers with showing the actual footage, but they have to mute the music audio a lot of the time?

258 viewsOther

I see this with a lot of movie reaction/breakdown channels where there seems to be no issues showing anything video related, but they always comment about needing to mute the music in fear of strikes.

On the other hand, I see music reaction channels (with millions of subs) just playing and reacting to the audio like it’s no big deal.

Generally it’s totally fine and legal to show clips and such of movies. You’ll also find that many of the clips, if not all of them are often from trailers or other publicly released video.

They don’t have to mess with audio for any reason legally but since they often loop background video like 10x in a single review or such you probably don’t wanna hear the same stuff like 10x a video.
