Topic: Copyright question

I own both Lego Star Wars: The Video Game, and Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy. I was looking in the depths of the CD on the computer, and found the music from the game. All the files were .ogg (Ogg Vorbis) files, and I was able to open them in Audacity. This also means I can export them as WAV or MP3. But are these files copyrighted? I looked all through the pamphlet that came with the games, and the only thing copyrighted (or said was copyrighted) was the program itself, the game. Is it alright to use the music in videos without copyright infringement?

Re: Copyright question

They are absolutely copyrighted. You could probably get away with using them in YouTube videos, but there's no way you can (legally) make money from a video with that music in it.

In wich folder did you find them? I've got Lego Star Wars II but I can't find those ogg files!

Re: Copyright question

Umm... I'll have to look back on the CD, but I'll let you know once I find them again.
