Why is this legal on Patreon but not on YouTube?

Asked by rockfan (14627points) December 19th, 2022 from iPhone

If I post a reaction to a full length movie or music album on YouTube, it’ll get taken down within 5 minutes and I’ll receive a copy right strike. But there are some YouTube creators on Patreon (a website where viewers can finically support a creator and watch exclusive content) who post full movie reactions to get around the copyright issue on YouTube.

There’s one particular music reactor who posts reactions to concerts shown on Apple Plus, a streaming service that I don’t have, so I’m actually saving money by simply watching her full concert reactions. How is this legal on Patreon, but not on YouTube?
