字节跳动的Seedance 2.5要搞版权通行证了，用受版权保护的内容做视频还能合法分成，比Suno那些还没落地的强。
字节跳动旗下Seedance 2.5视频生成模型将提供付费通行证，允许用户使用受版权保护的材料进行创作。字节跳动从中抽成并转交给版权所有者。这是AI视频生成领域首个此类商业化尝试，可能推动其他实验室跟进。但定价模式、可用素材范围、跨境法律合规性等细节尚未明确。音乐领域的类似版权许可机制预计也将出现。

This is a big deal. With Seedance 2.5 you'll be able to buy a pass to use copyrighted material. ByteDance gets a cut that goes to the owner.
I'm surprised no other lab has done this yet. Suno will likely do this when they release their licensed model. If ByteDance proves this works financially, every other lab will scramble to implement it.
I've been waiting for AI to have some sort of system for using copyrighted material for quite a long time. I'm expecting the same for music soon - I'd love to be able to remix tracks.
But the questions remain:
- What's the pricing model - flat fee, per-use, subscription tiers? - How much material will actually be available to us? - How does it work across different countries? What works in China might not fly in the EU or US. - Does this cover just visual style, or actual trademarked characters/IP? - Can creators opt out, or is this tied to existing platform deals? - What happens to content you've already created if your pass expires?
The cross-border question is massive. ByteDance has experience navigating this with TikTok, but AI-generated content using licensed IP is uncharted territory legally.
Music rights are probably why we haven't seen this yet - mechanical, performance, sync, and master recordings are all separate. The licensing nightmare is worse than images or video.
