Facebook has reportedly begun notifying administrators of pages linked to musical artists in the U.S. that they must activate a new setting prior to Aug. 1 for officially licensed music videos to be added to those pages.

Sarah Perez of TechCrunch reviewed materials that were sent to admins, reporting that they will not be tasked with manually uploading videos or providing links, and that activating the new setting gives Facebook permission to add videos to their pages, which can be discovered via the Videos tab.
