Q. I make sims 2 videos using music and they block them when I upload them to youtube which makes me sick, because there are millions of other ones on that site, and I know the people who make them do not OWN the songs. I always credit.
A. Don't take it personally.
Unfortunately for you, any music that's not your creation and that is
used in your video is considered "copyright infringement". The huge
music/media corporations like UMG, Warner and Viacom don't just
"own their music", they "own the rights" to them, which means how
and where "their music" can be publicly presented.
Thus, they're apparently 100% within their rights to claim the music
in your video as their own -- especially if you have not paid them for
"licensing fees", "distribution rights", "royalties", and/or "expressed
written permission" to use and "broadcast" their music on YouTube.
If you did use their music, that is considered part of the often-heard
warning: "Unauthorized duplication, reproduction, retransmission or
redistribution -- whether in whole or in part -- without the expressed
written consent of [insert company name here] is strictly prohibited.
All rights reserved. © " Their concern isn't just you but other people
who could conceivably download, copy, or just listen to their music
"free and on-demand" without ever having purchased it.
If you know of other vids using the same music, either YouTube will
take them down eventually, or someone who's jealous will flag them.
If you're willing to take the chance and re-upload your video with the
same music, do not write the name of the song or artist in your title,
description or tags. Also, avoid irrelevant phrases like "no copyright
infringement intended", "I do not own the music" or "I don't take any
credit for this song". Not only do YouTube's upload servers look out
for song titles, artists' names and sentences like those, you're also
stating that you have knowingly taken, used, copied or maybe even
stolen someone else's copyrighted material.
You should also consider the fact that the music-recording industry
is starting to use hidden "watermarks" or "fingerprints" buried within
their music, in order to uncover and identify their illicit use. As such,
it is possible that no matter how many times you try to upload your
video, it may always be rejected because of "copyright infringement".
You'd thus be better off trying to find a different version of the music
you want to use. If you have seen other videos apparently using the
exact same music, those videos were probably up on YouTube just
before this new technology really started coming into being.
The only possible exception to everything that I just wrote is for you
to use music that is shorter than 30 seconds in length. If you listen
carefully to any talk-show on radio or TV, they will never use or play
other people's music for longer than 30 seconds when introducing a
guest or going into/out of commercials. Can you guess the reason?
(Hint: it has to do with "licensing fees" and "royalties".)
I hope my info has been helpful to you.

There not and I checked for that soo can anyone help?
A. They are blocking them because of the music. You may have bought the music, but you didn't buy the rights to broadcast the music to the world. To get them unblocked, take the music out of the videos.
