Please explain the bit about diagetic audio preventing YT ripoffs.,(reply>), but artist always upload "official audio" so people still can steal it,(reply>), @Flaky That's a really weird explanation. Diegetic sound is sound that's a part of the story world and not the soundtrack. Like, if in a movie, the characters are listening to a radio, that's diegetic sound. The narrator's voice, the ominous soundtrack, everything only the audience perceives is non-diegetic sound.,(reply>), Foo Fighters diagetic audio in their video for "Run". They added smashing glass sounds when the cane strikes the car window.,(reply>), In this case, it's audio that's in the music video, that's not normally in the song. It's often jarring to anyone who's familiar with the song. In a way, it treats the video like a film, that's more important than the music, as opposed to the other way around.<br><br>"Oh boy, here comes the good part of the song!"<br><b>music abruptly fades into the background, as the characters from the music video talk about their feelings for 15 seconds</b>,(reply>), Flaky Coming from someone that ripped the music from yt even with diegetic audio, it didn’t quite bother me. When I finally got apple music and started to listen to the album versions of the songs, they just seemed off without it tbh
