What is Content ID?

What is YouTube's Content ID system and how does it work?

Updated over a year ago

We want to shed light on how YouTube's Content ID system works and how we're dedicated to safeguarding the rights of our artists while also making it easy as possible for our users to clear or prevent any claims instantly using our tools:

YouTube's Content ID System

YouTube's Content ID system is a powerful tool that enables music partners like us to effortlessly identify and manage our artist's music across the platform. YouTube scans all uploaded videos against a vast database of music, making it easier for creators and rights holders to manage their content.

Deep Sounds and Content ID

At Deep Sounds, we take the protection of our artists' rights seriously. That's why we register every single track submission, including versions with Content ID. This registration allows us to keep a close eye on any unauthorized use of our music. We're committed to ensuring that our artists receive the recognition and compensation they deserve.

Releasing & Preventing Claims

We want you to know that we've got your back when it comes to managing copyright claims on your content. Whether you've purchased a license through our platform or you're an active subscriber, we've made it incredibly easy for you to stay in control.

For License Holders: If you've purchased a license from us, clearing any copyright claim is a breeze. We provide you with a Content ID release code that you can use to swiftly release any claims on your content. Your creativity shouldn't be hindered by copyright hassles, and we're here to ensure it isn't.

For Subscribers: If you're an active subscriber with us, you have the option to whitelist your YouTube channel. This means you can proactively prevent copyright claims from happening in the first place. We believe in empowering you to protect your content and creativity.

We want you to rest easy knowing that your experience with Deep Sounds is all about freedom and protection. Whether you're releasing claims with our Content ID release code or preventing claims by whitelisting your channel, we've designed our tools to be user-friendly and effective.
