Apparently it's due to consistent takedowns from Square-Enix, and is ending July 20th. That channel's been around for over 12 years, and was one of the oldest to post VGM on Youtube.

Fuck YouTube. But if they ever get stuff like this they should just put everything on hold like an archive and start using a new channel rather than have a decade go to waste.

He said he's going to take a break, and then start a Discord server and/or a different channel.

YouTube's copyright system is seriously horrid

Honestly, the whole reason vg music is uploaded is because there's no way to easily listen to their music on the fly. As long as uploaders aren't making money off of it, I don't see why VG companies are fighting against it. Or better yet, offer their own music for sale or stream themselves.

Discord servers arent nearly as accessible. I hope he goes the new channel route or maybe put it on a different video sharing site.

The guy said that in the case of SE, they are uploading their stuff onto Spotify, which is likely why they've been hounding his channel so hard.

Alright, that's fair enough.

Take notes, other game companies, lol. If you don't want people uploading music of your games, then do it yourself!

They are hugely protective over their brand. And they've been taking down FFVII:R tracks since the game came out, but it's made even worse by the fact that Spotify doesn't even have the Remake OST on it yet.
