What? YouTube music is professionally sourced music like any other major service. You can upload your own music for personal use, but included music comes from the publishers.
Where did you get that crazy idea?
I think anyone can upload to YouTube music, or at least it's a lot easier than most platforms to get onto, so they have a point there.
There is a recommendation algorithm though, so if whatever you upload is terrible, it won't go anywhere.
Music you upload to YouTube music is for your own personal playback. It doesn't go to anyone else.
I mean it's much easier for actual artists to self publish than other platforms.
Source?
Worcestershire.
People upload poor quality songs to YouTube. Look up "song name lyrics" for an example. Those songs get mixed in with all the official songs when you're listening on YouTube. Plus their interface just kinda sucks.
This thread is about YouTube music, not YouTube. You can't see other people's uploads on YouTube music, it's only from the labels.
Are you confusing YouTube and YouTube music? You do understand they're separate services, right?
