Am I allowed to embed you tube videos to my blog/website? My niche involves the option to allow a play list/a music or play list tab on my site. Could I embed these videos in my site?

Here is why I think I should be able to.... I would claim no ownership to the music or rights. Also the music part of my page would not include affiliate links or anything money related. Because then I would profiting from the artists music. OR...

Because many of my site pages would have affiliate links and I am going to have a products page, does that mean I am trying to profit from artists?

I know on youtube if you have your own name/channel and you can create play lists. I wonder if I should just do that. And leave a link for my youtube channel...

    Youtube gives you embed links because they want videos embedded on blogs and sites.

    Youtube watermarks the videos, as well as makes the link to the source of the video back on their site.

    Don't mess with the embed code, or the links, or edit the videos - and you can embed away.

      When a video is uploaded, the author has the ability to disable embedding so if they don't want the video embedded on another web page, they'll disallow it. As long as the embed code is available on the page, you're allowed to embed it on your site/blog as you please.

        sweet!!! this amazing. Just another key word that I can use for my niche. Now hopefully when people type in the certain key word they might come across my page
        My niche has nothing to do with play lists. BUUUTTT, people can listen to music while they do what I am writing about. So...it would be great for them to buy my products, then use them while using MY playlists

      As Jill and Caiden said, You tube want you to embed videos on your site.

      They actually make it really easy, Just copy the code and paste it onto your site.

      Enjoy
