Disputing Copyright Claim with Youtube/ContentID third-party match

In order to prevent fraud and piracy, YouTube has employed a Content ID system which attempts to identify and raise a claim on rights on as much music as possible, including some royalty-free music. When YouTube notifies you that they identified the music in your video, you can file a dispute. Matched Third Party Content?
This Guide is to help you to dispute the claim.

This Guide is intended to help you to dispute the copyright issue/third party match on background music used in a Youtube video if you recently uploaded a video with a music in background and see the following notice in Video Manager under Uploads or Copyright Notice tabs:
"Matched Third Party Content"

If you don't respond to the copyright notice or acknowledge the claim as rightful, you won't be able to monetize your video.

The Guide assumes that you've purchased royalty-free music on LuckStock.com and have downloaded the license certificate from Your Downloads Area.

To dispute the claim, visit Video Manager or Copyright Notices tabs on Youtube and click on the message "Matched Third Party Content" of your video:

It's better to provide the link to the music track you purchased a license for in brief explanation form.
