When a match is detected, a claim is automatically made on behalf of the copyright owners that YouTube knows about-typically record labels and music publishers, or their designated agents (including PROs like ASCAP). YouTubeвЂ™s algorithm detects melodies that are similar to the reference track in Content ID. It can also identify cover songs, even when the video doesn't include the original fingerprinted sound recording. YouTube searches for fingerprinted music in videos uploaded by you or anyone else.
