It looks like CDBaby *might* have made a monetization claim on a youtube stream of compo titles. (We had a similar problem with Project Blue through its soundtrack distributor). I would hope that's unwanted behavior, and if so, you might want to opt out of that feature: https://support.cdbaby.com/hc/en-us/articles/209494806

Game's awesome, btw!


Thanks for taking a look at Isostasy! 

The Isostasy Soundtrack is monetized through the Content ID system and is available for steaming on multiple platforms, including YouTube. I apologize if this is causing any inconvenience, but it is not something I am willing to opt out of. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Aye. That's quite a bummer considering that your work is only a small portion of the multitude of games featured in these streams. Seems disingenuous to defend a decision that would garner you full monetization rights over these videos due to that.

It seems that CDBaby's policy for permission granting on individual videos requires action on the video creator's end instead of the artist's, but it is possible. Perhaps reaching out to the compo streamers with this info, and permission of course, could be a middle ground. https://support.cdbaby.com/hc/en-us/articles/209496166-Rights-and-permission-on-...
