The Fallout 3 LP prioritized music from Decca/Geffen, King Records (DeLuxe), and Soundies from UMG as a sort of one-stop shop. With that though - music playing in the background of the *game* while you're showing a video of gameplay would certainly be a permssible use. As for music licensing for a new vinyl LP release like the Galaxy News Radio Selections for Fallout 3, it looks like it's going to be tricky for New Vegas. Under 'Fair Use' you can use *extracts* from the works in reviews or critiques, even use large chunks of the work in parodies, but simply playing it in the background is on 'Fair Use'. Simply playing music (or a video) is a 'public performance' and would require licensing from the IP holders. You could simply do some Googling on the songs themselves to find out.Īnd no, not monetizing your videos does not allow you to use the music you want under 'Fair Use'. They not copyrighted by *Bethesda* if that's what you're wondering - niether Zenimax nor Bethesda will be sending you DCMA takedown notices.Īnd I'm almost damn certain the songs themselves are in the public domain - it would certainly be *cheaper* to avoid licensing fees and the aesthetic of the series allows you to use music that's old enough to be eligible.
