How does IA get picked on but YT does not? I can type in any music artist or album I can think of with the word playlist and get a full playlist. With exception of the YT channels owned by the publisher or artist I am highly skeptical YT own even 1% of the music on their site. Most of the music I run across seems to be just random YT user accounts and the music has been there for years. For the record I am not complaining, it just seems very biased to me as in IA probably do not have as many lawyers, as much bureaucracy, connections and money as YT making them an easier target but I am just guessing if that is the reason.

because youtube has Content ID. they faced the wrath of copyright holders years back, when they were small and lacked real profit, but now pretty much all videos with music in them are automatically claimed - so the big labels get money

Hrmm so maybe IA could implement this type of identification.
