i don't want to own the Credit or the Rights of the real owner but i just want to know one thing EA Paid for the Music then EA has rights to do that not the 3rd party i think EA don't Even know that they are claiming EA Music Because EA are the real owners and they made a free to play game thousand of peoples playing this game day by day they will also get this problem so i want to know that EA want to use this music Free to use or not Because i will not accept any 3rd party because they got paid for their work !!!

@q4yzer it's possible that EA hire a 3rd party to deal with this on their behalf and aren't directly involved.
Since making this post I have found the following info which specifically mentions YouTube and fair use:
Using materials from EA games
EA appreciates the passion that players have for our games, and we're always excited to see the creativity that comes from our community. EA does not object to fair uses of video footage or screenshots on video sharing sites, including YouTube channels that are commercialized, as long as the footage is a version of the game that we have released to the public.
We do reserve the right to address any inappropriate use of EA content. Additionally, because many EA games include content that is licensed from a third-party company or may otherwise have usage restrictions, paired with the large number of video-related questions we get from the community, we aren’t able to grant specific approvals or respond to all follow-up inquiries.

If there is a 3rd party managing this for EA they might have gotten a bit trigger happy on the claims.
