What is the difference between YouTube Music and YouTube Content ID?

YouTube Music is a streaming service offered by Google that lets people use YouTube as an ad-free music streaming platform.

The YouTube Content ID system is an audio fingerprinting program that catalogs submitted music, enabling copyright owners to identify where their music is being used on YouTube.

YouTube Content ID gives you the chance to get paid whenever a YouTube video containing your music is viewed.
