Hey all,

Lately I came across a growing number of people using our music in their videos on YouTube, but without providing a direct link to the track on ccMixter. They only mention the song title and the (last) remixer. I always leave a message to kindly ask them to provide a link, but I’m curious: is there any way to make it clearer that a direct link is required?

Best,
Martijn

I looked again at the ‘Click here for how to give credit and other conditions.’ on every track:

Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.

I don’t think it’s really clear that a link to the track is required? You have to click ‘appropriate credit’ to find out.

I’m trying to provide the embed code given to credit an artist but Youtube won’t let you use ‘brackets’

Is using the link alone acceptable? with the artist name of course…
