heavy on alice in chains; was just listening to them earlier, then about an hour later this piece of shitsac settles in :( hope all of the music comes back soon, let the rock live on!!
This makes me so mad. I can’t watch any Alice In Chains or Nirvana music videos, and who knows how many other artists were affected by this? TH-cam has gotta fix this.
Seriously. Not everyone has the money for a VPN and if the majority of your reason for TH-cam is music/creators that make playlist videos, basically no reason to be on here.
i didn’t even know this company existed. this is absolutely insane. more people need to talk about this!! you can use VPNS to listen to these blocked artists/bands, but still this is fucking wild.
It’s not even just music vids, I’ve been seeing this even in random shorts. For example, the milkshake grandpa guy lol. Got flagged by sesac and I couldn’t watch. Like a vid from Bradley hall got flagged, but he does music stuff, so it makes sense
Insane how there was no warning about this before as this happening out of the blue is actually horrible I really hope this gets covered by more people soon and TH-cam finds a solution to bring this vids back.
Seriously, I wouldve screenshoted my playlists so i could save them in case I was able to afford a VPN one day or if they fixed this BS, but now everythings just gone
Seems like some videos with music removed by SESAC are still up because they're age-restricted. Just checked bernievidz's video about Kurt Cobain (HIGHLY recommend btw) which was claimed for using one of their MTV Unplugged songs, but it's still available to watch.
Thank you for the questions. I don't know how we can best deal with this issue right now. However, I saw this Reddit thread that mentioned emailing SESAC at these email addresses (customerservice@sesac.com, legal@sesac.com), but I'm unsure how quickly they would take notice, if at all. I think the best course of action that we can do at the moment is to notify SESAC and TH-cam so they can deal with this issue, but I think it's ultimately up to the both of them to try to renew the contract and restore the blocked content.
I went to go listen to my playlist earlier today and I saw that many of the songs have been removed. I was so confused cause I thought that everyone’s accounts got hacked or something and made me kinda nervous. Thankfully it wasn’t that, but yea, this is so frustrating and unfortunate for sure.
i don't even listen to music, only sound remixes, but this is ridiculous. like, how much money does google have again? what are they putting it towards when they could be renewing a contract to fix half their platform.
Tomorrow when them pockets feel thin will get our music back unless it's over for free music had a good run i come from a time it was radio or mixtape or buy album now free not for long before all music
i saw earlier today, i randomly clicked on those personalized playlists and noticed that almost all nirvana live preformances uploaded by the official nirvana account were all unavailable in the US due to sesac? was gonna post to the nirvana subreddit but i was like "ehh later"
OMFG NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I can't listen to any music I love ANYMORE!!! #StopTheTH-camSESACMusicPurge Post this hashtag to EVERY social media to immediately get WIDESPREAD attention!
One of the creators I subscribe to said he might not be making anymore 90's workouts because the music llscence he paid for and is having drama and hasnt made any money on the video because of this or something like it.
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Luckily, TH-cam is trying to renew their contract with SESAC. CURSE YOU FOR BLOCKING A WHOLE BUNCH OF GREAT CONTENT, SESAC!
Dude I am a VICTIM of this! I was so confused when my newest video randomly got blocked from TH-cam when it premiered because it used a song owned by SESAC but now that I watched your video it all makes sense! Hopefully TH-cam fixes this soon!
I learn about this because, I want to listen to the album version Jesus by Brand New (great, pretty song btw) then I got slapped with this >~< I was not aware of sesac until now lol
This is as a result of silencing artists and content creators for using music that doesn’t infringe their rights. TH-cam will focus on pointless updates than fix these issues.
I literally listen to edit aduios and all the good ones i listened to like just yesterday is blocked. I use edit aduios for edits. My family has a family premium membership and i want what my family payed for. I'm going to be spamming youtube all night. They better renew this stuff.
Same! I had a playlist for edit audios that I've been collecting for YEARS and it got cut 80%. I would loop that playlist so I could write and ive been doing that since middle school, it's extremely hard to write without those sounds for me. But seeing 300+vids reduced to 130 makes me wanna just delete the fucking app man
This is why Analog is sometimes best. We used to make something called 'Mixtapes' back in the day and you could record any music with cassettes. Some of us also had reel to reels- which is high quality. I think we should say F these greedy Fs and go back to where we had some control instead of being controlled by current tech.
Guys connect to a vpn server of countries outside of US (I live in Argentina and every video licensed by sesac is unblocked) and it should be unblocked, hope this helps you
TIP: if you don’t want to use a vpn and have the direct link to the blocked videos, you can use TH-cam to mp3 then upload the audio to filegarden, works just fine
I was going to listen to a nine year old parody song and it got marked with the sesac thing. Is the video still there or is it gone? 'Cause it'd suck if it's just gone. :| *EDIT; Yay, it's back! :D That sesac thing is done (hopefully).
TH-cam will focus on LITERALLY ANYTHING EXCEPT for actually banning inappropriate bot accounts or fighting scam/explicit advertising
SESAC is a licensing company, they legally cant use that music, so they have to block it
@@TrenUluxotheres a secret weapon called speeding the song up beyond comprehension
@@codyryan9789 Nope, that got patched ages ago.
It's not TH-cam it's the other company
It ain’t YT fault. It’s sesac that won’t negotiate as of right now. Gotta find out what happens next
Why is no one talking about this this is the only video I could find! I don’t even know what sesac is!
Yeah I have no clue why this isn't being talked about more, it's a huge problem at the moment
it’s a music thing from the 30s
Nutsack
@@adamn78fr
we gotta get penguinz0 on this
Cant even listen to alice n chains, sublime, or half of my playlist right now. Pissed off. 🖕 Seesac
I hope deftones isn't affected
@@aeromexico0015 Yeah man, I tried listening to AIC's self titled just a few min ago but it was blocked :(
heavy on alice in chains; was just listening to them earlier, then about an hour later this piece of shitsac settles in :( hope all of the music comes back soon, let the rock live on!!
Came here after not being able to listen to Alice In Chains would or Seal don’t cry on Musi😭😭🤬
This makes me so mad. I can’t watch any Alice In Chains or Nirvana music videos, and who knows how many other artists were affected by this? TH-cam has gotta fix this.
w pfp
This is going to ruin TH-cam permanently
Seems to be only blocked in the US. Using a VPN music still works. *shrugs*
Edit: Maybe TH-cam is working with a VPN to get extra sales
Yes
until they get a new contract
Seriously. Not everyone has the money for a VPN and if the majority of your reason for TH-cam is music/creators that make playlist videos, basically no reason to be on here.
@@prettysparklez1195 You can use a free VPN just for TH-cam lol, theres like 30+ free VPNs just for the purpose of changing your location works fine.

Wth?? Why are they flagging the poor Milkshake grandpa? Good lord they're destroying this platform
@@prettysparklez1195 it was just one video
I sadly can no longer watch Gangnam Style anymore. I blame Sesac it's their fault in my opinion.
They banned everything mentioning nirvana or a tribute to Kurt Cobain💀
You can't even mourn Kurt Cobain without getting blocked by SESAC? Bro...
Insane how there was no warning about this before as this happening out of the blue is actually horrible I really hope this gets covered by more people soon and TH-cam finds a solution to bring this vids back.

I HATE SESAC SO MUCH
more like nutsack
Me, too.
Same

This is absolutely horrible for both TH-cam and SESAC. I have no doubt this will be fixed soon
RIP TH-cam Music 🙏
For now
It’s insane…they’re not even available on the artists’ own TH-cam channel!
SO ITS NOT JUST ME
Ikr I thought so too lol
@@Z0r3_00 ye
Charlie, Pyro, Muta and many others need to talk about this.
Wtf TH-cam
Also thanks for being the ONLY one to talk about this.
What can we do to fight back? Who should we be writing to? SESAC, TH-cam, both? Any information is helpful. Thank you in advance.

Im blaming both TH-cam and sesac. Its very clear that neither of them care about their customers/ consumers.
I don’t know. Business = business. I feel like YT is victim but like all of us it’s not perfect, there are some downsides
Time to unsubscribe my premium account cause thats all i use youtube for
I was just thinking about this, they're bound to lose so much money and viewers for this
SESAC sucks
I do too!
I agree
It’s Blocked in U.S. not nuked off platform, but we’ve gotta find out what happens next
They blocked most of nirvanas songs and some Green Day songs. Why you sesac you ruin everything.
I went to go listen to my playlist earlier today and I saw that many of the songs have been removed. I was so confused cause I thought that everyone’s accounts got hacked or something and made me kinda nervous. Thankfully it wasn’t that, but yea, this is so frustrating and unfortunate for sure.
Litterally 90 percent of my TH-cam time is music. I might as well go on Spotify now.
I hope that you're getting better and feeling less sick
i don't even listen to music, only sound remixes, but this is ridiculous. like, how much money does google have again? what are they putting it towards when they could be renewing a contract to fix half their platform.

TH-cam & SESAC reached an agreement that is why of the dispute over the weekend
i saw earlier today, i randomly clicked on those personalized playlists and noticed that almost all nirvana live preformances uploaded by the official nirvana account were all unavailable in the US due to sesac? was gonna post to the nirvana subreddit but i was like "ehh later"
This is a god damn outrageous wtf
How is it that all these song are licensed under one entity?? It’s basically a music monopoly which shouldn’t be acceptable.
Music monopoly was like the best way you could put it
NAUURRRR I LOVE MGMTTTT
OMFG NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now I can't listen to any music I love ANYMORE!!!

We’re all victims to this. Clearly YT disabling comments for most cartoon content wasn’t enough to ruin YT
YT has officially lost their dang minds
Dude, I’m going to loose hard work and revenue from this- 😭😭
I normally don't listen to a lot of mainstream songs
I learn about this because, I want to listen to the album version Jesus by Brand New (great, pretty song btw) then I got slapped with this >~<
I was not aware of sesac until now lol
ya i just realized this and i was sad because thhis was the best song of my childhood songs
i can't listen to nirvana!!!!!!!!!
same
Same 😢
Connect to a vpn server outside of US and i think it should work
every nirvana concert uploaded got sesacked
Better not be smells like teen spirit because it killed the post-80s vibe too quickly
Fuck SESAC I can't listen to wake up by korn now
Same problem
This is as a result of silencing artists and content creators for using music that doesn’t infringe their rights. TH-cam will focus on pointless updates than fix these issues.
What!? So its not just boom clap!?
Fix this TH-cam
THEY GOT RID OF ALEX G 💔

bro i just wanted to watch a disney channel intro movie and saw this like what
IT MAKES ME SO MAD! I CANT EVEN LISTEN TO MY FAVORITE SONGSS!
wanted to listen to Mr. New Vegas but Sesac wouldn't let me.
I blame Caesar
This was a very spontaneous video so the quality is not great, but I felt like this was necessary to bring up
they got me listening to the Saint Jude cover of Until The End by Breaking Benjamin :(

Why do they only block it in usa?
One thing’s for sure… Rammestein, the only German metal band I recognize, is completely safe… for now…
bro they took down I’m bad by ll cool j 😭😭😭
Even if this resolved in the near future, we shall always find a way to bypass this system for our pleasure.
Dude I can’t even listen to my favorite songs anymore because of this!! I am so pissed off
Crap, lemme see if I can still listen to my slipknot
How we going to do? SoundCloud or wayback machine?
I'm very mad about this!
Guys connect to a vpn server of countries outside of US (I live in Argentina and every video licensed by sesac is unblocked) and it should be unblocked, hope this helps you
I actually want to spam youtube all night over this, i am genuinely P#ssed.
Yeah, what the Hell?
EXACTLY.
They took down title fight 😢
Bro the 1 ScHoolboy Q song that is on all my fuckin car playlists is not even there
This is when my vpn come in clutch
Yesterday I cried so hard about the green day blocked shit
They have to fix this right? This is something that is basically destroying their entire platform. You can't even watch videos that have it in there.
All those playlist videos are gonna be taken down
I swear if they delete my playlist that is full of obscure songs…
I was just texting to listen to bad girls and this popped up
RESOLVED
Underrated comment alert/pos
Video unavailable this video contains content from sesac it is not available in your country
I guess Spotify will have to do until this gets resolved.
I thought I was the only one dealing with this situation apparently but nope
Welcome to the machine.
I know how you feel...
In these trying times, I thank Jeebus that Tool's Schism is still up
I dont think there deleted there hopefully gonna get back up
Goddamnit SECAS this is your fault for ruining TH-cam and not letting us listen to our favorite songs?!
VPN works, set to Canada and music works, guessing other countries will work too.
Strikes. They suck for the general public. All we can do now is wait it out because getting involved in a strike would only make things worse.
Mis by Alex G was blocked bro, im mad
I'm tryna listen to Killswitch Engage and I'm like what the heck.
I Hope They Fix It Soon
Good idea.
this is why I will always support piracy one way or another
I REMBER GETTING THIS
wanted to listen kanye but i had this message, what the fuck bruh 💀💀💀
TIP: if you don’t want to use a vpn and have the direct link to the blocked videos, you can use TH-cam to mp3 then upload the audio to filegarden, works just fine
can I fix some of the same videos or something?
Tbh it's probably in the millions
THEY TOOK MY JIMI FUCKING HENDRIX
Only his cover of Watchtower. Which is because SESAC owns Bob Dylan. Including covers of his songs
Interesting, they work fine in the UK. Makes a change being a US problem rather than eu
The polish cow eng sub also has sesac
that explain everything. try to hear music and it's block
yt music is my main music app so...
Same! Theyre gonna lose so many users and so much money from people with subscriptions
THIS APP IS THE ONLY PLACE I LISTEN TO MUSIC FROM
I was going to listen to a nine year old parody song and it got marked with the sesac thing. Is the video still there or is it gone? 'Cause it'd suck if it's just gone. :|
*EDIT; Yay, it's back! :D That sesac thing is done (hopefully).
Great. Just Great. Another Glitch
