oh yea 100%. I’m not going to argue it’s not piracy to upload soundtracks you don’t own to YouTube.
I think there’s still plenty legal cases for allowing uploading of user files (not to YouTube, to your private yt music library). ie uploading bought albums from bandcamp.
that’s such an immediately cynical take on it. at the time, there was no other way to listen to the p3r soundtrack. ATLUS has now put it on digital streaming platforms, including yt music, so I don’t have to do that anymore.
how is it a bad thing to allow users to upload their own files? there’s plenty of stuff you’re not going to find on any digital streaming service. old mixtapes, Nintendo soundtracks, etc.
have you ever looked into roon + tidal + jellyfin? looking into media server stuff now and wonder how that would integrate with jellyfin, if it even can.
yea but someone always reuploads pretty quickly. it was funny seeing ATLUS try to squash all the uploads of Persons 3 Reload’s soundtrack when that came out. someone had a new playlist uploaded within the day lol. and now it’s easily findable.
like I mentioned in another comment tho, if you have the files yourself you can just upload them to yt music directly. no need to upload to YouTube and worry about takedowns.
you can just upload music to YouTube music directly tho? like old Google Play music. you don’t need to do this workaround of uploading a YouTube video of the track, just drag-and-drop your files to the YouTube music site.
YouTube Music allows you to do this fyi
for anyone curious, YouTube Music definitely has this, I’ve recently used it. looks like a holdover from the Play Music days.
since it sounds like you’re talking android maybe, with the pixel feed on the left of the home screen, I just switched to the neo launcher + neo feed [1] this week and it’s been working great. the launcher is a pretty good open source nova-like launcher on it’s own, but the feed is just an RSS reader that is on the left of the home screen like Google would be. it’s been super nice to have that similar feed but with my chosen data.
as for images, you should def have some. there are feeds that don’t include it, like techcrunch, but most do. you can try the verge or rockpapershotgun as examples.
kept private. they’re just in my yt music library with the rest of my music. it’s not uploaded as a YouTube video anyone can access.
