Anyone that goes out of their way to harass or be toxic to the people mentioned in this video are not respected and not welcome in this community. The only way that Undertale's Music won't suffer from Copyright problems in the future is by leaving constructive criticism and not have hundreds of people leaving negative comments towards Materia Music or the CEO.

Undertale's Music is in danger due to Copyright Hell. With Yellow officially released a lot of problems have arrived and I wanted to make a video about it to bring attention to it and warn other content creators about the problem.
Toby Fox if you're watching this the only way to solve this is by making another public statement. All of us are kindly asking for you to do this. Thank you for understanding.

Update as of 01/06/2024: Undertale Yellow has released a message on Toby Fox's behalf. In which Toby states that he will be donating $20k to the charity of Undertale Yellow's choosing. Additionally he says that Sebastian was right in regards to the fact that Yellow didn't get permission from him to publish the music until recently. However, Sebastian had handled this situation extremely terribly and Toby criticized him in private for doing so. With him stating that they should be supporting fan's love and passion towards any fanwork. Toby has also said that they will be re-working the guidelines for usage on Undertale's audio to make them more clear as well as provide better information on how to license music properly. Update as of 01/02/2024: Undertale Yellow has released a public statement, stating that their music will now have their disputes accepted similarly to Undertale's music. While this is a big win, it is still unclear if disputes will be rejected for other fangames outside of Yellow. Additionally, it is unclear if Undertale music will get disputes rejected for videos that don't have Undertale gameplay present. Toby Fox, we still wish for you to release a public statement on all of this to give proper clarification. Original Comment: Anyone that goes out of their way to harass or leave negative comments towards anyone mentioned in this video isn't apart of my community. We're here to spread love, kindness, and acceptance. Not the other way around. The only way we can get these rules to change is via constructive criticism, not harassing people. That being said, don't go flooding the CEO's Twitter with complaints either. If you want to say anything, make sure it's constructive. Toby Fox, if you're watching this, releasing a public statement like you did before is the best way to get out of this mess. It would mean a lot if you did so.

In other words: Don't be surprised if it takes Fox some time to resolve the issue or discuss it.

@Fafr 4 месяца назад

@jmerridew124 5 месяцев назад

I'm getting sick of large companies trying to pretend transformative works don't fall under fair use. If frivolous, bad faith copyright claims resulted in the disputed content becoming public domain I bet they'd start behaving real quick.

@ctom4242 5 месяцев назад

"Fair Use" is a much much more vaguely defined concept in copyright law than people think. A work being transformative is just one of many factors that affect whether it falls under fair use and usually is not enough on it's own for a court to rule in it's favor. Parody and criticism are both much more highly protected and usually are enough to count on their own. Even with that most big parody creators such as Weird Al always get explicit permission before creating a parody just to be on the safe side. The majority of things people think of as transformative would on their own lose out in court if a copyright dispute made it that far.

@Hideyoshi1991 5 месяцев назад

remixes or covers do not fall under fair use, but that doesn't matter because Toby Fox himself has given permission for these things to exist.

@mimszanadunstedt441 4 месяца назад

The fact they can steal the money from a video whose content is only like 4% at best related to someone's music has been absurd to begin with. The most they should be able to get should be that about 4%. Like, the duration of the music, divided by duration of the video, divided by number of transformations the music had, divided by 2 (visual and audio, audio isn't everything) then that should be how much they get to take. But they'd rather claim a whole video, by default.

@EmeraldLavigne 4 месяца назад

The issue is the transformative-ness it's only one is 4 criteria for determining Fair Use: 1 - nature of the user (commercial/ non-commercial & educational, news, criticism, review, etc); 2 - amount used; 3 - transformative-ness; 4 - market usurpation (basically, does your use eliminate the need to go to the original to experience a work?) A review pulling a few quotes to illustrate a point pretty clearly DOESN'T render it such that you don't need to go to the original, unless maybe you're quoting the twist that's the entire point of a work... All four factors of Fair Use must be weighed together. That's why H3H3 prevailed in their Fair Use claim; they used all of the original work & basically eliminated the need to go to the original work, but their use was so clearly transformative and clearly critique that those factors outweighed the other 2. The bar for being adjudicated Fair Use should probably be lower, but the weighing it out across multiple factors DOES make sense.

I think saying not to harass a company isn't for politeness, it's to mitigate bad actors with good intentions dragging the cause through the mud - hence constructive criticism only. Many such cases where a person or company will weaponize the victim card if they receive enough of what can be framed as harassment, which will weaken the case against them, at least in the court of public opinion. Either way, it's less likely to help Toby if he is already doing anything to rectify the situation, unless you hear from the man himself that he needs people to prove a point.

Even if DistroKid did buy a license from Materia, I guarantee you they bought a cheap license for single use and not eligible for sublicense (which is use by a commercial third party like Undertake Yellow). I know of a creator who recently lost a RU-vid dispute because his "DistroKid license" for an 80s soul song was invalid and the actual copyright owners held legal claim. He bought a license from the actual copyright holders to solve the dispute. In short, DistroKid is selling invalid "licenses" and ripping creators off. I'm not defending music copyright laws, I'm just clarifying what's happening legally speaking.

Materia Collective has had issues and disputes in the past that led to their "FALLEN: An Undertale Tribute" album being removed from all platforms, FALLEN being an album with 100~ songs and even more artists.

Also these companies often manage the music because its profitable to do, so if Undertale Music isn't going to be enforced in a way that lets such a company make money by issuing claims, then its hardly worth it for them, which may make it hard to find another manager. That all said, if Toby doesn't want anything claimed, then why even have one of these companies as a manager in the first place. The whole thing is very confusing.

And just yesterday while my family was watching _På Spåret_ ("On the Tracks", a travel-based quiz-show) and about 45 min into it they showed a clip from an antique shop and had put the Shop OST as the BG music and I'm really curious about what they had to pay IF they even had to (at least they had added proper credits in the credits roll)

@hqTheToaster 5 месяцев назад

Theatrics are good to get someone to pay attention. Good job with the video. And straight to the point.

@LinkEX 5 месяцев назад

Theatrics are necessarily good to get someone _in particular_ to pay attention. But they can be good to get _some people_ to pay attention, and _in turn_ have those affected by the commotion pay attention.

@Sandstorm-TheTraveller 5 месяцев назад

I just realized how *bad* it could be if Wolff decides to go on and copyright the use of the Undertale OST… We’re talking about a full on purge and disaster for all of RU-vid- since a majority of the community uses the ost in hundreds- no, thousands of videos. Let’s just hope this gets resolved

@NightTheKittenn 5 месяцев назад

I’d argue that even thousands is lowballing it. Undertale and Deltarune music are used in the background score of so, so many videos, even ones completely unrelated to video games.

@Sandstorm-TheTraveller 5 месяцев назад

(Yeah I probably went way too low on the numbers lol) But yeah, it would be pretty bad for RU-vid as a website, possibly over half of its content being endangered or even removed is catastrophic, though I don’t think we’ve seen anything like it. It might not be that bad, it might be a disaster, it might not even happen! We just gotta wait and see what happens next for Undertale.

@gamercentral2417 5 месяцев назад

@pixilator804 5 месяцев назад

@@NightTheKittenn It's even gone further than RU-vid. If I remember correctly both Snowdin's theme and Sans' theme were used in the news. So yeah, this will be a disaster of gigantic proportions if this snowballs into a widespread copyright strike.

@neonoah3353 5 месяцев назад

My guess is they only went for the ones that would spell more trouble for the copyright, and some youtubers are making a big fuzz of it to get attention. So theres probably no need to worry about this.

It seems like we found another company that forgot a core tenant of Capitalism: Don't piss off your customers; they're the ones who give you money. Toby has all the leverage in this relationship. He can effortlessly find alternative distributors and hire lawyers to enact his wishes. That is a TON of money to just squander.

@tentativegazer 5 месяцев назад

Actually correction the core tenant of capitalism is "Exploit everything possible in order to gain more profit but do it in such a way that the convenience for privileged people outweighs the guilt they feel for supporting unethical practices and make sure the ones you really exploit don't have enough rights to fight back"

The worst part about this is that this could actually harm Toby Fox's image. He really needs to come in and set things straight, because some people could end up believing he's okay with this shit and Sebastian Wolff's tomfuckery.

@maromania7 5 месяцев назад

issue is, most options he has to deal with it work far better if he stays quiet until they're over. that's the best way to handle legal matters. it's why you don't see shit like this often, because public statements in general (especially absurdly stupid things like this) can REALLY end up bad for you. you're just giving the opposition ammunition. In some cases accidentally giving them grounds for a countersuit.

@ASmolBoy 5 месяцев назад

As someone who's been an Undertale RU-vidr for almost 7 years at this point (My old channel + my current one), I've just accepted the fact that I'll never be able to monetise Undertale videos. I've gotten copyright claims on Toby's music all the way back in 2016. Toby seems to have picked the absolutely worst option for a publisher. Materia(ss) knows that UT's/DR's soundtracks are their biggest money-makers and they'll do anything to hold onto it until the end of time. Hoping to see a statement from Toby soon! And uh.. hopefully he'll change to a different distributor, though that probably won't be easy.
