    I wonder how similar the 2000s-era napster fight will look when we get a high quality music diffusion model with 0 copyright guardrails. Then I can listen to unlimited, radio of my favorite artists serenading me with songs I’d wished they’d written

      The entire point of piracy and related copyright infringement is to build a path to appreciation of an artist's works without necessarily agreeing to their pricing and terms (whether imposed by the artist themselves or by publishers). What you are suggesting is the complete opposite: leveraging established or even defunct artists as mere brands to slap on generic machine-generated content that does a great job imitating said artists' style, but bears no resemblance whatsoever to the actual creative process that led to that specific style in the first place.

      Record labels would actually love this model: they'd be able to put their extensive back catalogs to use by giving everyone their very own hyper-personalized, maximally-stimulating Beatles, Queen, Linkin Park and more, all without paying a single cent to the humans who actually built those acts. What breaks this utopia, and what you seem to be missing here, is that by far and large people want to listen to the real deal and not to a deepfake Chester Bennington's song on the Israel-Palestine conflict in an unprecedented act of VC-funded digital necromancy.

      idk. I can imagine them getting close, but there will always be some part of me that knows that if the artist were making that song they might have chosen something different, that it's not them.

      I don't want to hear Linger-er by the CrAInberries

        Lots of time I don't want to hear the live version from the artists themselves.

    As a joke he plays the bass while sound is muted, then gets a claim.

    I'm speechless.

    Shoutout to Davie504, who let me know about a bunch of bands and performers
