In fact, courts have rejected Fair Use arguments for songs that only sample a few seconds of content. So if you’re using any amount of content that you don't own – even a few seconds – you are taking a risk of receiving a claim or takedown. You have the right to argue Fair Use, but only courts (not YouTube) can ultimately decide whether ...
Fair use on YouTube. Fair use is a legal doctrine that says use of copyright-protected material under certain circumstances is allowed without permission from the copyright holder.

Myth #1: If I give credit to the copyright owner, my use is automatically fair use. As you saw above, transformativeness is usually a key in the fair use analysis. Giving credit to the owner of a copyrighted work won’t by itself turn a non-transformative copy of their material into fair use. Phrases such as “all rights go to the author ...
