I agree that there has to be some method to do a meaningful search much like you would on Google. I attempted a search using various combinations with various connectors and it still took over 5 minutes of 'Load More' to get to the artist and track. This is not sustainable as a DJ searching a track live during a set.
It would also be very helpful if the returned columns could be sorted at least alphabetically.
Additionally, some of us have very fast Internet, browsers, and computers so the ability to set 'returned rows' in our profile would be helpful as we could increase the rows returned based on our perceived performance of our browser.

We are actively investigating APIs for the music catalog. It is a complex challenge that requires more scrutiny than our usual endpoints. We will have further information about the potential implementation and availability of these APIs at a later date. If you have a use case in mind, please include it in the comments below as this would be helpful for our development process.

Add to this post, I have 110,000 songs in my library as I cover a wide range of music genres. One post stated 30 minutes to search 30 songs, that means it would take me 110,000 minutes (1,834 hours, 76.4 24-hour days) to search every song in my library.

Ok, I am going to add into the whole allowed/blocked conversation here. I have gotten one of the warnings and yes, after I played about 60 seconds of the track from a forbidden artist, I realized it was one I recently added and didn't red-line it and mixed out real quick. I will own that one. However, there is another DJ that has now gotten two warnings for tracks that 80% of the songs by that artist are allowed and a small number are not. He got hit on those. He and I are open-format, non pre-planned playlist DJs. We are already doing a lot on stream and to now have to play a track, think of the next track, go to a browser, search that track, and hope that we don't have to find another one because it is a track from an artist that has a bunch of approved tracks, and if it is forbidden, quickly think of another track, search it, and hope we have enough time to load and mix it in.... All of this while watching and interacting with the chat, the activity feed, the dog peeing on our leg, and praying we don't get follow botted... Twitch, PLEASE open an API and for the love of God, someone write us a tool for at least Serato/Virtual DJ/RecordBox to start with that would pop up a NO NO NO warning when we load a track while streaming. I know they are warnings right now, but soon they will be category strikes! (copy/pasted from my comment in the Twitch Creator Club Discord)
I agree wholeheartedly as I spend on average 2X the amount of time I am actually streaming a set preparing crates, curating music for my set, creating fresh overlays and visuals for my set, as well as supporting other DJs and their community. Not to mention the equipment costs vs. a gamer or a just chatting channel.
Every penny I receive from my viewers goes back into my stream and supporting other channels with bits and subs. Now that the net revenue from streaming has been severely cut into, this affects how much I can support others.
Please reconsider the payout structure. Even as a Partner, there are no changes in the payout structure.
