Avoid Trending Audios #shorts

Should I use trending audio on my Instagram reels? So, short answer no. There's a long and complicated answer having to do with music licensing, but there's actually a much more important reason. Sometimes a trending audio will get removed from Instagram due to copyright reasons. If this happens, every video that used that audio now has no audio whatsoever. They don't just remove the background music that got copyright struck, even though they definitely could do that, they also remove the actual audio from the video. You know, the part where you're talking, why do they have to do it this way? I don't know, but this is why I highly recommend you avoid adding audio in app. If anything, just ask your editor to add in some background music, just like my guy does.
