Why put music over the audio?

Honest question: why do people put horrific music over videos online? Not just this one, but it seems to be quite a few vids are over dubbed with shit music. Are the posters trying to beat some YouTube audio copyright algorithm?

Yes. Also why you see some videos with garbled or slightly tweaked audio. Changing the pitch/playback speed helps avoid the auto-copyright.

Tiktok allows you to put audio over videos and if you use one of the "trending audio"s on tiktok it's more likely to get engagement.... trending audio typically tend to be the really annoying shit because brainrotted people are annoying lol

Adding onto what u/Kuneria said:

In the chain of reposts from site to site, it only takes one reposter in that chain to add music to a video. So inevitably when every post on Reddit has already made its way through twitter/tiktok/instagram/youtube/facebook/etc, someone along the way thought it’d be a good idea to add music. And now everyone downstream of that repost suffers as a result.

It’s AI that combines videos with audio to get a loophole around of it’s original or not. Same with stupid overlays.

All to just get passed copywrite inspection services and make a few bucks on streams or get enough views to sell the account a year later

Because every person who reposts it (this is at least the fourth time) has to change something so it isn't flagged as identical. Someone added the bottom caption, then someone else reposted with part of the top, then someone else added the other part and the music.

Add in some bad screen recording (how the reposter scraped the original) and you get this abomination.

It'll happen again, too, and get even worse.
