Question: Alina works at a publishing company and needs to deliver assets on YouTube for a songwriter’s catalog. What information will she need to include?
- Metadata, ownership information, claiming policies, and linked relationships to Sound Recording Assets.
- Metadata, references, and linked relationships to Sound Recording Assets.
- References, lyrics, and ownership information.
- Metadata, sound recordings, and claiming policies.
Explanation
For publisher-managed catalog delivery, a Composition Share asset must include the data YouTube needs to identify, claim, and administer publishing rights. Metadata identifies the composition, while ownership defines the territories and shares controlled by the publisher. A policy tells YouTube what action to apply when the asset claims matching content. Linking to a Sound Recording asset connects the publishing share to recordings that embody the composition.
Why the other options are incorrect
Metadata and references is incorrect because publishing assets rely on linked sound recording relationships, not reference files for matching.
References and lyrics is incorrect because lyrics are not the required rights-management delivery structure.
Sound recordings is incorrect because the publishing asset should link to recordings rather than deliver them as the composition asset itself.
