Spotify playlist checker
Seeming some songs on Spotify are blocked by Twitch due to copyright issues perhaps we could get an app or something where we can put a URL for a Spotify playlist and it checks wither a song would be blocked or not, this way we could tailor playlists to be free of copyright infringement but still suit the vibe and style of our streams. Sadly there is nothing we can check songs against at present so this would be a great way to work it.

I have one single song on my playlist that gets muted I would love if it just told me what song to remove 😂

I would say that we need a way to check for dcma content more easily. Skirting by with the occasional mute is a dangerous way to play the dcma game. I frequently play "dcma free" playlists from youtube, and recently ive been getting some hits on them since someone somewhere decided to add one song in the playlist to the list.
This isnt just a twitch issue, but it would be cool to start here. Just an easy "check this link" feature where you can input a url of a spotify playlist, a youtube link, etc. The system already checks vods. just make the checker available to streamers so they can proactively check music before using it. -

Seems like a suggestion that might be better directed to spotify, as a company that licenses all their content from the labels they will have accurate data on which songs are copyrighted
Might be they could implement a toggle for copyright free only content that can be used when streaming
