    Either you pay for the use of the music with a license. ASCAP, BMI, SESAC. Or License with an independent musician. Or write your own and do it with garage band.

    If it is copyrighted music, places like YouTube will take it down when someone informs them.

    I video cheerleading routines and they get taken down even though the music is clearly part of the video and not added in post production. The music changes every 10 seconds or so which makes citing the artists a chore.

    The kids pay to use the music in their routines - seems unfair that they should then pay again for it to be on social media.

    It's called music interpretation. They take a copyrighted song and remake it so it sounds slighty different from the original.

    if you use software to have it speeded up, slowed down, or transposed slightly, then Youtube's spiders won't be able to recognise it and take it down.

    There are sources for Creative Commons Licensed Music which is royalty free with attribution requirements. These aren't your top ten hits but you can find almost anytime of appropriate music for your video needs.

    I'm sorry but I'm not too savvy on this. Dumb question: if it is a remix is it acceptable or does the person who remixes the song get paid out?

    a remix will mean the original owner gets paid, if they allow it. The original owner may make a request to youtube to have it removed and use legal means to stop you from doing it again
