What is YouTube Content ID?

What is YouTube Content ID? Why am i seeing "Matched third party content" on YouTube after I upload my new video?

Don't worry. It's a standard process by YouTube.

When a contributor registers their content with such companies, their content are fingerprinted and saved in the Content ID database. YouTube will run this database across videos that are submitted to them and send a notification if they find a match in their database.
