> The Twitch DJ program lets you stream DJ sets using the vast majority of popular music. Sounds great that seemingly it coves a lot of the mainstream music, but what's the procedure if I happen to stream something that isn't a part of that? And how can I check what songs from my library are cleared to play/stream without having to actually play them and "find out" after the fact? The pages about this program seem to miss something vital practical information. > If you stream pre-release tracks, your channel may be subject to enforcement and penalties including termination of your stream and suspension of your channel. What a shame... Half the fun is finding absolutely new tracks and playing those. But I guess overall this program is a step in the right direction.

  Thanks, missed that about the searchable catalog. Here's to hoping there will be some Rekordbox integration in the future so one doesn't have to manually search through 100s of tracks and instead can just get a checkbox in the UI. > TL;DR Email them about the tracks you want added (and pray, probably). I think that part is about labels/rights holders wanting to add tracks to the catalog from their side, not for DJs to request tracks to be added. But maybe I read that wrong, worth a try at least. Thanks :)

    Yeah I read it as being on the creators side of things (because that’s what the whole page is for). But you could be right. Worth tying anyway like you say.

    It's clearly saying DJs should email if they want to request tracks be added, though whether the "chat with us about this" will go anywhere, who knows.
