"Music Sharing" Projects
yeah, never report nice stuffIf a project is just meant to be there for people to use the music, with no animation or music video or anything to accompany it, it cannot be shown as Fair Use and will be taken down by the Scratch website.Only report the ones that are just music, not anything that people useWhat?NO! I'm reporting some

So would this be fine?Maybe. It's iffy; depends on the view of the creator if they were to see this. It's an animation of sorts, but it's not too complicated at all and just seems to be distributing the song with a fancy background instead of being used in a project that didn't have it as the main focus.

Let's say I made a mashup, and put a project of it out, would it be taken down because It's technically a load of songs with fancy layering on it, or…?

So… I'm guessing that games, animations, music videos, AMVs, PMVs, MAPs, and that kind of stuff that feature music are okay.
But, what if you're showcasing a piece of art or something, or a collection of your art? Can you put music in that, or is that a no-no?!

The projects that are getting removed are ones which purpose is to share music created by someone else. If music by someone else is just accompanying the art you're showcasing, then as long as you give the appropriate credit, then it's absolutely fine.

It's basically any project that has the music as the main focus. If it's something like an art dump or whatever where the ART is the main focus, then that's okay. So… I'm guessing that games, animations, music videos, AMVs, PMVs, MAPs, and that kind of stuff that feature music are okay.

Hey everyone,
Scratch is a place for learning, creating, and sharing creative works made by Scratchers. Recently, we have noticed a lot of projects on Scratch being used to share music created by someone else. Projects like this do not express the creativity of the Scratcher and are not fair to the original musical artist. Scratchers are welcome to use music created by others in their projects, but they should be sure to use the music to support their own creativity - not as the main focus of the project.
Yes, I totally agree with that. Unless the Scratcher creates the music or has more to the project than the music, they are not allowed to do that. Are noteblock versions of songs allowed? Just asking.
