# Can I register my song with YouTube Content ID?

 
Premium (WAV) licence

 Not permitted 

 
On the Premium (WAV) tier, register with youtube content id is not permitted as these agreements are ordinarily written. Content ID asserts an exclusive claim over a recording. A non-exclusive beat is, by definition, in other people's records too, so registering it claims work that is not solely yours and generates claims against them.

 

 
## What to check in your agreement

 
Search the agreement for 'Content ID', 'fingerprint', or 'digital rights management'. If it is silent, assume no and ask in writing.

 
## The same question on every other tier

 Licence tier | Register with YouTube Content ID | 
 Free (tagged) | Not permitted | 
 Basic (MP3) | Not permitted | 
 Trackout / Stems | Not permitted | 
 Unlimited lease | Not permitted | 
 Exclusive rights | Depends on the contract | 
 

 
## What this tier is

 
Same rights shape as Basic with a higher-quality file and higher caps. Still non-exclusive. Typical price: $40–80.

 
Scope limit. This models the STANDARD form of each tier. Any individual agreement overrides it. Where a cell says 'depends', the answer is genuinely contract-specific and no general resource can resolve it.
