Universal Music says that it will pull its song catalog from TikTok tomorrow at midnight, as the companies are unable to reach a deal on rights. Huge implications. (twitter.com)

this is everything awful about the modern internet. i hate that they can just go and retroactively destroy creations like this. imagine if someone lost the rights to a song and they forced you to send the cassette back

I don't use TikTok, do creators buy music fron TikTok to put in videos?

No, they just put it as background music in their videos, but didn't actually pay for it. I would guess it constitutes fair use?
