It's funny how google pretends the music on YouTube isn't straight up piracy and everyone just goes along with it

Most people have extremely weird ideas of what’s considered piracy and what isn’t. Downloading a video game rom is piracy, but if you pay money to some Chinese retailer for an SD card containing the roms, that’s somehow not piracy. Exploiting the free trial on a streaming site by using prepaid visa cards is somehow not...

luthis,

So does that mean albums ripped and uploaded to Youtube do result in royalties being paid to the artists?

What about in the case where there are no ads?

luthis,

I was under the assumption that Youtube had to pay artists for their music being on there? Is that not what is happening?

And if not, how has Youtube not been cease and desisted/sued into absolute oblivion?

luthis,

Live music isn’t what I’m referring to though, it’s the ripped and uploaded albums

luthis,

You could try kdenlive.org and www.openshot.org

I haven’t done much editing, but they are fairly popular and decent tools. They also come as an AppImage, which means they pretty much ‘just work.’

And handbrake.fr gets a mention for transcoding.
