    If anything, youtube is the biggest sharer of pirated music. You can listen to anything on it for free, from anyone.

      Hell I still sometimes find those old “lyrics” videos. Remember those? They all had that bluish teal background? Some of them survive to this day.

          I mean, there was a particular format of them, I think they were made in Youtube’s old built-in editor, there’s a distinctive style that is extremely 2007.

              That would make sense for the era. The particular font scrolling effect most of them started with is likely also a built-in effect? I never once played with Windows Movie Maker.

      Hell, most of the major labels post tracks themselves to sponge up that sweet ad revenue. You can just use the tool of your choice to download the audio straight out of it if you decide you want to keep it for later.
