Uploading a video of copyrighted music to YouTube is not the best idea. But is copyright also a big topic on Twitch? Because I often see streamers playing their entire Spotify playlist that is full of copyrighted music.

You are only allowed to do that if you buy the rights for it, that is what most of the big streamers do. Otherwise you have to stick to copyright-free music.

Lo

Yes, this is copyright infringement and can end badly.

There's also the problem on Twitch that you get triked with isolated musicians. You have to find out whether the artist agrees to stream it, or you have to pay for it.

Played a statement from Montanablack on the subject of Lil Peep on Twitch.

Yes, it has become a big topic on Twitch lately.

Many Vods were deleted and there was stress for many streamers.

I think the bigger you are, the more it becomes an issue.

Many streamers let the music play in the stream and delete the recording afterwards.
