Is it infringement to intercept the theme song of film and television and put it online?

According to Chinese laws, musical works refer to songs, symphonies and other works with or without words that can be sung or played; Film works and works created by methods similar to movies refer to works shot on a certain medium and composed of a series of pictures with or without sound, which are shown by appropriate devices or spread by other means; These two kinds of works are protected by copyright law. Only the copyright owner can transfer the information network communication right in whole or in part, and the copyright owner can license others to exercise the information network communication right. In fact, in our country, the vast majority of cases involve infringement, so both music works and film works can only be disseminated, rented, performed and disseminated through the information network if authorized by the copyright owner. Put it on the website, if it involves related rights, it will involve infringement.

Summary: Without the authorization of others, it is an infringement. Moreover, there are copyright descriptions of related copyrights on general websites. So this situation belongs to infringement.
