I'm little bit concerned...

[JessieYun]

Okay, this has not happened long long time ago, this happened very recently and I'm getting concerned more and more everyday so I decided to post this.

At August 10th, this year, I received PM from @lightninggamer190 with this message:

Title : use/youtube
Content : can i us this music in my youtube video? if i can i will show your name.

I sent three replies:

1. Hi there,
Thanks so much for the PM.
What song do you specifically want to use?
Please let me know.

Thanks again,
Jessie

2. Hi there,
Sorry for two PMs, but you are allowed to use any music I've composed. Just let me know which song do you want to use in your video and please also send me the details briefly about your video :)

Thank you very much,
Jessie

3. Please let me know the YouTube link where you used the song after you completed it.
Thanks a lot,

Jessie

After this, no reply came.

I'm just worried because he's not giving any information that I can trust.

What exactly are you concerned about?

I was worried if he stole my music and used for his own beneficial purposes. I can't trust him since he didn't replied my PM.

Also I wrote this on my first page, quote:

Thanks for the reply. :)

If you're really worried that he's abusing your rights or something, search for him on YT and see what he's doing with your music. If he isn't keeping up his part of the bargain and you can't reach him, you can always claim rights infringement on YT.

Yes, I did that. And the problem is, I can't find him.

Did you do that by searching your music? Like, typed your own username into the YT search bar and see if anything cropped up?

Because then the alternatives are, either that has happened, or he didn't use anything at all, or something else altogether...

they could've done that without asking you first too though, so it's not really worth worrying about

[DarkHorseOrchestra]

This is why you do this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfOks3lNtxw

[JessieYun]

Unfortunately.... Yes. Did all :(
But still... Nothing found.

Then... just leave it alone and let them sell it or anything?!

Haha, that could be one option.

well, yea. like it's not even just this guy (who in all likelihood is just a teenager with a let's play channel), literally *anyone* could've already downloaded your stuff and stuck it on some dodgy commercial streaming service and you would never know.

i'm not saying that you should never protect your copyright, but the current situation is out of your control. so save your energy for when you actually find evidence of somebody using your stuff illegally instead of panicking and chasing down kids on youtube.

[JessieYun]

Oh, okay. Got your advice. Thanks. :)
