Ya know. This was posted in 2020 and music on Twitch is still a freaking nightmare. I woke up this morning to a blizzard of muted VOD notification for music I LEGALLY bought from Pretzel Rocks specifically to avoid this kind of drama. While not an actual DMCA strike, it is still a problem. Too many people have suffered at the hands of the DMCA police. To ensure full compliance while Twitch, Pretzel and their auto-mod company Audible Magic continue to saturate in-boxes with mute notifications for again, LEGALLY PURCHASED and FREAKING PAID FOR music, I've had to take the safe route and delete ALL of my VODS. I will also stop playing ALL music. This will hurt my show and hurt my business for no good reason. I go a long way to insure I remain firmly within the guidelines of the TOS. But you just made my job a lot harder. Yeah, I'm furious now.
