Draw On Legal Wisconsin Music Forms For Free

To get permission to use a copyrighted song, you'll need to find the artist or owner of the song and contact them. Most of the time you contact famous musicians directly, but you can contact their music publishers instead.

Unfortunately, adding the disclaimer ?I don't own the rights to this music? to your Facebook posts does not protect you from copyright infringement. It merely acknowledges that you are aware of the copyright issue but does not provide legal protection or permission from the rights owner.

You don't need to say you don't own any rights to a song; the copyright owner already knows that. At this point, you're just advertising that you're using the music illegally. Giving credit to the content owners when using copyrighted material also doesn't work, although you may have to do this when you get a license.

Add a disclaimer like ?I don't own the rights? or ?no infringement intended? Added your own material to the original content.

Using a disclaimer such as ?I do not own the rights to this music? does not make it legal to use copyrighted songs without permission or proper licensing. Such a disclaimer can be seen as an admission of guilt, acknowledging that the user knows they are using copyrighted material without authorisation.

It's your material, you should protect it. If you're in the USA, you can upload your material via the US Copyright Office website. If you upload your materials, it's only a small fee. It takes a few months for them to process your paperwork if you upload it digitally.
