JEFFERSON CITY — Two ads by the campaign to legalize recreational marijuana in Missouri vanished from YouTube after the Missouri State Highway Patrol accused the group of breaking state law by the “unauthorized” use of its emblem.The 30-second ad targeted by the patrol was visible on the Legal Missouri 2022 campaign YouTube page on Thursday. But by Friday afternoon, it had disappeared.A similar 15-second ad was still visible Friday afternoon, but a campaign spokesman said the campaign would be “taking down” the 15-second one if it was still uploaded. It eventually disappeared as well.“We will be uploading new versions of both shortly,” said John Payne, campaign manager for Legal Missouri 2022.The patrol issued a public statement earlier this week saying it didn’t approve the use of its “emblem, name, or images” and that “nor was permission sought.” An agency spokesman said Thursday the patrol sent a “cease-and-desist order” to the Legal Missouri campaign, but a copy of the letter wasn’t immediately provided. The Post-Dispatch received the letter on Friday.Kayla Kemp, legal counsel for the patrol, said in the Wednesday letter the emblem “is a registered service mark” and that its registration “prohibits anyone other than the owner of the service…

YouTube has raised the price on the YouTube Premium Family plan, the version of its ad-free, offline-viewing and music subscription service that provides access to up to six accounts. In the U.S., the price of YouTube Premium Family has gone up from $17.99 to $22.99 per month, an increase of 28%. According to Google, for existing members, the new monthly rate will go into effect for the first billing cycle that occurs at least 30 days after customers have been notified of the price increase. “We don’t make these decisions lightly, and we realize how hard this may be for our members,” a YouTube rep said in a statement. “This new price reflects the complete value of YouTube Premium and will allow us to develop even more Premium features and continue to support the creators and artists you watch and listen to on YouTube.” The YouTube Premium Individual plan remains $11.99/month, while the Student plan (available only to eligible full-time students) is still $6.99/month. YouTube Premium eliminates zero ads on all content, including music, provides downloads for offline viewing or listening as well as background playback (meaning you can continue to listen to audio if you’re using other apps or…

YouTube Music’s bimonthly recap of feature launches for August and September 2022 is here with wide rollouts for seven-day stats and a handful of teases about what the team is working on next.  YouTube Music has widely rolled out private listening stats for the “Last 7 days” that can be accessed by tapping your profile avatar in the top-right corner > Your channel. This page was previously just home to “Your Recaps,” but now has new sections for Songs, Artists, Playlists, and Music Videos “on repeat.” Up to five items can appear in each list/carousel.  These stats are based on your music listening history across YouTube Music, YouTube Main, YouTube app for TV & Console Devices as well as assistant and casting.  Meanwhile, YouTube Music has made official its MusixMatch static lyrics partnership to increase lyrics coverage. The team notes a “positive impact on lyrics consumption rates since launching,” and that this will serve as the basis for “even more Lyric features in the future.” Live/scrolling lyrics would be a great addition to match Apple Music, while a sharing feature could be nice.  Google says it has “optimized Song radio recommendations” to include more artists. In the future, these…

Shuffle is harder to reach now Over the last few months, YouTube Music has undergone a few subtle visual changes across multiple platforms. Devs gave the app Material You buttons, and a redesigned library tab, among other interface tweaks. Back in July we checked out an improved design for playlists, first available on Android tablets, and later trickling down to some phones. Now, it appears to be rolling out to a whole lot more devices worldwide. The new look for playlists feels just like the album view redesign we reported about in June, with larger, more prominent cover art. Above that we see uploader details, and there's the playlist name and description down below. This is a beautiful change from the slightly cluttered previous view, where the playlist name and uploader info were all crammed in beside the cover art. The old playlists view (left) compared to the new one (right) Buttons for playback controls are also moving around. The old YouTube Music view had prominent rectangular buttons for Shuffle and Play, with options to Edit and Download playlists getting smaller dedicated buttons underneath the uploader information. In the new view, you’ll see a bold circular Play button under the…

Open platforms like YouTube, Tiktok and Instagram are nurturing a more diverse and representative talent pool of creative voices than traditional broadcasters and even streaming services, according to a pair of new reports from Google UK’s Insights team. A study from Oxford Economics shows that YouTube’s creator ecosystem alone supports the equivalent of 40,000 jobs and contributes £1.4bn to the UK’s GDP. Meanwhile, the ‘Mirrors and Windows’ report, which explores how identity intersects with media habits in the UK, also demonstrates that the platform is perceived to be inclusive, with 79% of users believing that YouTube represents a wide range of voices, people and perspectives. Nishma Patel Robb is senior marketing director at Google UK, and while she’s a long-term Googler with a deep appreciation of the platform, she was surprised to see the scale of the impact YouTube’s creators have on the British economy. “I have to say, I think the contribution and the number of 40,000 people being ‘employed’ in some respects is what's enabled by the ecosystem. Bearing in mind, that's double what the BBC employs,” she says. “That blew my mind, if I'm honest. I think that the scale of the contribution was far greater than I'd anticipated.”The…
