Bad Dog seems to have a YouTube channel, https://www.youtube.com/@BadDogDC but they aren’t off to a good start. All the songs they uploaded are marked as YouTube Kids which means you can’t even playlist them.
You can if you add to playlist from the search screen.
I keep expecting them to break that workaround, but it keeps working for me
I’ve also found you can go through your history and add videos marked as Kids that way.
The craziest part is they happen to both be copyright lawyers and they still couldn’t fix it
These companies are just miserable to talk to, trying to stay out of the legal handling themselves by being mum, passing along the reports.
This sucks
😨🤯 that’s seriously fucked up

But not long after “The Jukebox of Regret” was finished in July and posted on SoundCloud, nearly every song on it somehow turned up on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube and at least a dozen other streaming platforms.
Disc Makers, the CD production company hired by the band, was about to start pressing copies of the album and, as part of its routine due diligence, ran the metadata of the songs — their digital fingerprints, essentially — through a program designed to determine if they were originals.
Despite their backgrounds, both men were stymied by the vast and arcane world of music streaming fraud, a realm where anonymous pirates are constantly devising new ways to steal from the $17 billion a year pool of royalty money intended for artists.
In the late 1990s and early aughts, millions of fans routinely downloaded songs from online peer-to-peer file services without paying a penny, a fiasco that cost the industry a fortune.
In the streaming world, 40 seconds of noise is as much a song as “Hey Jude.” To garner listens for these tracks, fraudsters buy log-ins to legitimate accounts on Spotify and other services cheaply and in bulk on the dark web.
Mr. Post stuck with this philosophy for decades, but it was tested after the theft of “The Jukebox of Regret.” The galling part was that Bad Dog’s connection to the songs had been completely erased.
