A reasonable fix exists: once licensed or royalty-free music is verified, it should be whitelisted at the account or track level.
Repeated takedown threats for the same approved audio waste creator time and erode trust.

If you host a podcast on Spotify and use licensed or royalty-free music, are you dealing with the same thing?

Re-proving rights every episode isn’t “creator support.”
It’s friction that punishes long-time, compliant creators.

This isn’t about avoiding copyright enforcement.

It’s about an automated system repeatedly challenging unchanged, licensed audio and forcing constant re-verification under threat of removal.

That’s a platform failure, not a creator one.
