I am the anchor of a well-known audio platform in China, and I also have an audio album on the headline platform. Regarding your question, I can answer it for you according to my experience since I started.
First of all, in recent years, with the rise of video from the media, audio from the media also came into being, but its share and advantages are always inferior to video from the media. At the same time, the gradual enhancement of domestic copyright awareness in recent years has also brought some troubles to audio from the media.
Secondly, there are many well-known audio media platforms in the whole network, so there is no need to list them here. In fact, all major platforms are scratching their edges, and the rules and regulations of the platform have been made clear. What you want to see must be copyrighted, otherwise the platform has the right to take it off the shelf at any time and even pursue your legal responsibility.
So there are really no infringing works and anchors?
Of course it is wrong, and almost all of them are porters.
If you have time, you can browse the contents of all audio media platforms carefully. More than 90% of the content is copyrighted. It is impossible to manually review platforms one by one. There will be a speech-to-text machine to identify them in the background, but the probability is limited. With a slight change, you can hardly recognize them.
Moreover, the platform is often released to the public for its own traffic and user market. For example, there are countless free song resources on all major platforms, and all the authors who publish these songs have no copyright.
However, the so-called people do not raise officials and do not investigate, no one deliberately reports, and the platform is happy to turn a blind eye.
Then the next most important thing is how to circumvent the audit mechanism of the platform.
In fact, sounds and words are different. If you publish an article and copy other people's classic paragraphs and contents, it is easy to be found and recognized. But the sound is abstract and invisible to the eyes. When you turn an article into sound, first of all, people who are not interested in the content will not click in to listen. Second, some people quit after listening to a few words, and it won't make any difference. Third, it is difficult to quickly reflect which author and chapter your reading comes from at the first time, and then search for evidence and report you.
This is also one of the reasons why audio anchors infringe, but few people find it.
In addition, it is difficult for copyright owners to have the energy to search all the voices on the whole network to identify infringement.
Does this mean you can be reckless?
Of course not.
If you read a famous book or a novel serialized on the Internet word for word, I can tell you that you will be taken to court.
If you want to read a long story or someone's work, you must get legal authorization.
However, as a self-media anchor, as long as you extract a paragraph casually, it will not be discovered or discovered, because the impact is minimal, and no one will embarrass you and report you.
If you just read some good-looking articles, poems, essays and other topics on the Internet, no one will pay attention to and investigate the copyright issues of the materials flooding the whole network. You can also bring some original content from Weibo's media account, but you should modify it appropriately. When you turn words into sound, it is more hidden.
In addition, many audio media, which have their own legally copyrighted content, will buy the copyrights of some articles and works, or the content that is not controversial in law, and provide it to everyone for free reading on the platform.
Therefore, when you first enter the platform, you can choose this free and uncontroversial content to read aloud.
Finally, if you really become a big coffee, have many fans and want to broadcast some works with complete atmosphere, then you have the capital and conditions to talk about cooperation and authorization with the copyright party. Of course, that step is still far away.
I would like to add that it is also a piece of advice: on the Internet, there are countless people with good conditions, and too many of them are good at reading, drawing, singing and writing. But if you want to make money and really become a big coffee, the hope is extremely slim. Therefore, it is good to have a correct attitude as a hobby. Behind those successful anchors, a huge professional team is speculating.
There are more experiences to share with you, such as how to operate, register, platform comparison, income, equipment, editing and so on. Those who are interested can.
