...doing hub work, etc...
Once you get past the obnoxious ad-loads that is. Worth it in this case...

Hmmmmm... very calming.
I listen to this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71MC8VQpc1U
Actually PDS, that's lovely. I want to use it in the background for my Valley of the butterflies video.
Can I do that, and if so, how?
First, a rant... When we get our articles stolen blind; nary a cop or prosecutor, or other government official to be found. Stealing music, however, people get thrown in jail all the time. Why is that? OK, rant concluded.
Having no idea where the person who made that video got the music, I'd be leery. True, Beethoven and Chopin don't give a damn, but the performers might.
All I can suggest is:
1. If not already known, somehow find out the composer/title of the piece(s) you want to use.
2. Then do a search for: public domain classical music. With any luck, you'll find a public domain performance of it somewhere.
Sorry I couldn't be more help.
Update: I'm listening to it right now. I just realized there's modern composers in there. Hopefully, the public domain search will save the day.
Because the people who own the rights to the music are generally wealthy and have teams of lobbyists who can help influence policy and the law, and lawyers who can help enforce it.
I asked if I could (thought that it might be in the public domain given that it was on Youtube) Whether rich or poor, I'm really not into stealing other people's work. Thanks, I'll use your suggestions.
I know you're a good girl. I was just concerned that we don't know the video's pedigree, and didn't want you to end up being falsely accused of anything.
Thanks for reminding me about this. I'm rocking out to it again as we speak.
Hollie, the music is written by the person who posted it to YouTube. He has his own web site, which includes full contact details: http://relaxdaily.net/contact/
Why don't you get in touch? For all you know, he might be interested in having a joint initiative together with you, with him providing the music and you the video...
WriteAngled, you are a gem. No joke. Consider yourself hugged.
Thanks WA, I will. I found the music really beautiful. The valley of the butterflies is really beautiful too, and although I did my best with the short video (being an amateur) the background noise distracts from the environment. I think the two would be harmonious.
I'm now taking a walk on the wildside...
"Smooth Jazz Over 2 hours Jan 2013"

I love Jazz. Thanks for the beach thing, I'm going to play that for my pets when I'm not around.
Thanks for this musical beach interlude.
Actually made me put the gun down.
Yes it is.
I sure wish there was a "Stand Your Ground" law that applied against Google.

This might seem like a silly question, but I have to be sure. If I pause, for example, a Tom and Jerry episode and take a screenshot (because, let's say, I want to have a picture of Tom chasing Jerry in my hub), is it OK? If it is, how do I mention the source of the image? I read that screenshots...

As some of you may know, I write nontraditional hubs. I pull in what I would consider ok traffic from outside Hub ( 2k a week average) but I am only making 30 cents a day on adsense anymore and very little on ebay. Now I know that my topics limit me as far a s associated income streams and this is...

Kind of tired of this notion of kowtowing to these guys in the first place and then I find this.https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news … o/53368255And, yes, it is public domain. So, what are our lords and masters doing then?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enemy#/me … _enemy.jpg

Based on the answers to the question I posted yesterday - motivated in part by the TOS difficulties with Pinterest and the new Pin It button - many people see no reason to cite photgraphs that are:a) in the public domainorb) that belong to the authorThis presents a confusion to me.How is a reader...
