Twitch partners with major record labels for DJs to pay fees on copyrighted music in livestreams.
Twitch partners with major record labels, including Universal, Warner, and Sony, to create a first-of-its-kind agreement requiring DJs to pay fees for using copyrighted music in their livestreams. DJs will split the fees 50/50 with Twitch, and the platform will initially cover over 50% of the costs. This program, launching in summer with a new DJ category, aims to address copyright issues and avoid DMCA takedown notices.
