Sony legalizing remix music.
Sony has decided to "legalize remix music" unusual as a record company. Up to now, the hurdles for creating and publishing because of the copyright problem of the original song are high, and remix music with many restrictions can be enjoyed with Spotify and AppleMusic forever.
This service is prepared by a partnership with Sony and Dubset. Dubset is a company that provides a service called MixBank that analyzes remix music and pays royalties for used songs. This legalization was realized by collecting royalties from informally released remix music using MixBank.
The number of remix music released by Major Lazer and Bad Royale has already been played 1.7 million times and proves that MixBank is going well.
According to Josh Constine of TechCrunch, "Dubset will partner with Warner and Universal after contracting with Sony."
In the background of such big news, SoundCloud of the audio file sharing service hit hard. A gray remix music piece was uploaded frequently to SoundCloud. But if you can use remix music as legitimate content with Spotify or AppleMusic, you no longer need to use SoundCloud.
Although it is said that SoundCloud 's clouds are getting suspicious is not a beginning for now. SoundCloud was drawn by the momentum of streaming services such as Spotify and AppleMusic. The cool part of SoundCloud, which can enjoy all the content for free, became an enemy, and SoundCloud was moribund in recent years.
As record companies and streaming service giants stepped into remix music, the released DJs raise the tension. SoundCloud is pale.
