This has been mentioned, but the hitbox owners are the same as own3d, who owe a good amount of people money

Destiny got really hosed over by own3d, they stopped paying him while he was in Poland practicing at one of the SC2 houses.

Honestly streamers need to take note from Destiny and just stop caring about ad revenue . What he did was genius and ahead of the curve. He moved his whole subscriber base to a personal website (Destiny.gg) and just uses twitch embedded, he can now basically move to anywhere he wants without losing any subs

most games have a slider / option to turn off ingame music, while leaving SFX on. depends on the game, but you could do that and play royalty free music in the background instead (which would even help lesser known musicians build their audiences).

this probably isn't even going to work either, apparently it's flagging DannyB's soundtrack in Crypt of the Necrodancer

... so they want to pursue copyright claims, but only half way? They will allow people to break the copyright law as long as they don't see it, basically. That is a very dumb policy which makes no sense.

it would cost a lot more to monitor and scrape live than it does to scrape an archive.

Ad revenue is pathetic anyway

this was not the case a few years ago when these people were making over $500 a day in just ad revenue.
