I don't see what we "lose culturally" by dropping the use of commercial music. There is a plethora of great, liberally-licensed great music out there.

- superuser2 12y agoNo, there really isn't, or advertisers wouldn't be buying public performance rights anymore.
- enneff 12y agoAdvertisers either want a catchy song people already know, or don't want to attribute the artist. Neither are a problem for streamers.
- darkmighty 12y agoSome examples of emblematic music that are often used as specific references: Chariots of Fire https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYJzcUvS_NU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYJzcUvS_NU Wagner's March of the Valkyries https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRU1AJsXN1g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRU1AJsXN1g Gonna Fly Now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyvQKTg4T5o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyvQKTg4T5o You can't really replace those.
- enneff 12y agoI'll be happy to never hear either the first or third examples ever again. It shouldn't be a big deal to find public domain performances of the out-of-copyright Wagner piece.
