Twitch Issues Apology for Ongoing Music Licensing Issues: “We’ll Do Better”

As Twitch remains locked in a seemingly endless dispute with the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and major record labels over music copyright and licensing issues, the streaming giant has now issued an apology to its users. Citing frustration and confusion among its users, Twitch apologized in a new blog post that legitimizes their concerns as “completely justified.”

“Over the last several months, we have done our best to manage this situation on behalf of both rights holders and creators,” the blog post reads. “One of the mistakes we made was not building adequate tools to allow creators to manage their own VOD and Clip libraries.”
