Did someone new take over the RIAA in the last 18 months? I felt like this absurd litigation and nonsense was a thing of the past. I haven’t heard much on this topic in years but then all of the sudden the stupidity was cranked to 11.
No one steals music any more. What are these studios thinking??
- detaro 6y agoIssues with game music in streaming have been a constant thing over the past years, and "stream-safe" modes in games are nothing new.
- cwhiz 6y agoI am only recently hearing about these things. Taking down YouTube DL and all the twitch streamers having to delete their old videos. Seems like a fairly recent push into being aggressive litigators again.
- detaro 6y agoThese are notable, yes, and probably why the relative non-event "game has streamer mode" now gets a headline (maybe also due to relative popularity of Cyberpunk 2077? I don't know off-hand if it's been in as major titles before), even though it's something that has been a thing for a long time (because lots of the restrictions requiring it have been a thing for a long time, and thus weren't very present in news).
- curryst 6y ago> No one steals music any more. What are these studios thinking?? No one steals music like it's 1990 anymore. The RIAA is finally realizing that the ship has sailed, and they've entirely lost control of distribution. No one listens to radio anymore. Very few people buy music. YouTube and Spotify are the music distributors of the younger generation, and the RIAA wants to put that rabbit back in the hat. All that's left is for Spotify and/or YouTube to start signing artists and it's basically the end for the RIAA.
