I have been an entertainment industry professional for over 30 years, and what streaming platforms choose to interpret as copyright law is atrocious. I DJ on Twitch now, and two of my videos have had audio blanking despite the scrolling message coming from my LICENSED COPY OF VIRTUAL DJ that i ALSO HAVE A PRS LICENSE under FATAL FLOOR PRODUCTIONS, which is a NOT FOR PROFIT LLC. What is frustrating is that there is NO WAY of preventing these incorrect censorships, nor does one have a line of communication to refute such erroneous, and sometimes downright fraudulent claims; FURTHERMORE, this is causing MORE HARM to the artists themselves, who see no proportional revenue from streamers due to censorship, as repeated airplay of their song is supposed to generate revenue - which is WHAT THE PRS are for! I have the lawful and legal right to not only play music under this license, but there should also be no given reason why they should censor the recording, since I am playing the song ON MP3, at a different pitch, different speed, and NOT CLAIMING TO OWN THEIR MATERIAL AT ALL!
Twitch, you have the option to lead the way, here; in no way is a streamer claiming to own a song - they are just sharing it. If that streamer has a PRS license, why is there no option to tell you that? This way feels more like corporate supression of the revenues of artists...which is currently forming a very large picket line in Hollywood right now.
Copyright law is NOT that confusing. Not when you own and run a production company.
