“…Another factor is if the citation has a detrimental effect on the original work’s usual use or the original work’s prospective market. Professional and complex judgments are required as to whether some adaptations constitute fair use, with this often beyond the capabilities of network users and short video platforms ( Collins, 2014 ). Under the condition of bounded rationality, if a correct judgment is to be made on these issues, more time and energy must be devoted to understanding the relevant legal knowledge ( Lipton and Tehranian, 2015 ).…”

“…The use of modern technical means to supervise infringing short videos has long been in place in other countries. For example, YouTube launched a Content ID system that compares the audio and video uploaded by users with the copyright content database and automatically filters the content with high matching to reduce infringement ( Collins, 2014 ; Wary and Neelima, 2019 ). By 2017, 98% of copyright issues on YouTube were resolved through the Content ID system ( Cheung, 2019 ).…”

“…Many large video platforms in China have also established different degrees and patterns of automated infringement detection systems ( Zheng et al, 2020 ). The technical principle is similar to YouTube’s Content ID system that determines whether infringement is occurring by comparing uploading videos with copyrighted video content ( Collins, 2014 ). For example, the video gene comparison technology independently developed by Sohu Video uses existing copyright videos, at a level numbering nearly one million, as the gene matrix ( Mingzhao, 2020 ).…”

In recent years, copyright governance for short videos has become a hot issue of common concern in the academic community and the industry. Therefore, this study intends to explore the economic aspect of copyright governance in relation to the proliferation of infringing short videos. The short video industry of China has been taken as a case to demonstrate the copyright governance issue. Transaction cost theory has been applied to analyze the economic aspect of copyright governance in terms of four dimensions: bounded rationality, opportunism, environmental uncertainty, and asset specificity. From the perspective of transaction cost economics, the problem of short video infringement is observed to be essentially a market failure due to high transaction costs. In the short video market, substantial transaction costs are incurred in the legal transaction of copyright with these costs considered to be too high. This is especially the case when transaction costs exceed the net proceeds initially expected by short video users from the authorization, making it impossible to carry out the transaction and leading to infringement. To effectively control the copyright infringement of short videos, it is necessary to build a cross-platform information-sharing mechanism to reduce search costs, establish a unified copyright management platform to reduce coordination costs, and give full attention to the role of technical support to reduce regulatory costs.
