What is deemed fair use, and what is acceptable under copyright law for music in a tv show?
|
I am producing a non-profit public access television program, and I am wondering what are the restrictions with music? Am I only allowed to use public domain music, or can it qualify under fair use if I use copyrighted music which is properly cited in the credits?
All Answers To QuestionsAnswer 1
Fair use is EXTREMELY limited.
Here's an example of legitimate fair use: You are interviewing a band who is playing in town, during the interview your play a short clip of their performance the last time they played in town. Under those circumstances you can use up to 20 seconds total.
Using music simply as theme music or background music is NOT fair use. << GO BACK to questions
