It's not just copyright law that causes unnecessary damage, but how private companies often overreact to it.
I took a multiday cross country road trip a few years ago and installed a dashcam before I left. I put together a timelapse video, complete with some of my favorite music that I felt was appropriate given the purpose of my trip and the landscape in view. Those friends and family who have seen it think it's pretty cool.
But good luck sharing it anywhere online because Content ID and the like are everywhere.
I hate to be that guy but this actually seems like a reasonable restriction to me. If your favourite artists "want" to charge for your sharing of the music they have the right.
Honestly I think the biggest problem with copyright these days is the infinite period for which it lasts.
