© strike

To whom this may concern,

So somethings I have noticed is that is quite annoying are Copyright Strikes for social media users. If you want to find out if a song is copyright free, you would have to go to some sketchy website or use the list provided for your content. The main issue this happens is with youtubers and streamers. Someone could create their list of songs that  are royalty free and then a "smart suggestion" may come up that isn't thus giving a copyright strike to the content creator. For streamers, the section of the video would be muted during the song that's copyrighted. 

My idea is to make it easier for users of Spotify to find a non copyrighted song or have a section of music creators that are royalty free until they get signed and submit a form to be off the list to start making money off your platform. This would help streamers move from Pandora, or any other music player to Spotify knowing that there is a royalty free section of music. Plus it would give an opportunity for music creators to see if music is their strong suit. But will not play ads if they are a premium user which in turn would generate more revenue to you as a company because no one likes ads lol. 

In summery,

-Royalty Free section for streamers with genre search in the tab

-Music creators can find out if music is the right choice for them. Almost like a trial and if they get like say 10,000+ listeners, they can apply to make money or automatically be pulled from the royalty free list.

- Potential user increase from streamers and other content creators

P.S.

that A.I. voice thing is creepy. Maybe have like a voice selector and maybe blends music better. like your personal DJ with a list of songs you provide or something.

- Thanks for listening...or well reading lol
