Japanese companies are really weird about these things. You'd think, unless you're providing that material to consumers that you'd WANT the extra exposure. In this case they had some absolutely amazing music you'd never know existed without fans like these. Instead they attack like a dragon guarding their hoard.

It's a major reason why J-pop didn't take off while K-pop did. They didn't embrace the internet and fought it at every turn. Why provide music videos, CD's or streaming for stuff people clearly want when you can instead take them down at every turn? Hell, I was looking at my main playlist of songs on Spotify yesterday and noticed some of my Japanese music is missing now. I thought we'd finally gotten past that crap.

Falcom literally has a policy of letting fans do whatever they want with their music as long as they're not profiting from it. It's even on their website (and still is)

Really fucking strange that they'd do this, Falcom Music Channel didn't just upload a few hundred tracks but even the most fucking obscure Japanese personal computer tracks of 40 year old Falcom games and their gajillion ports lmao.

Damn that's a shame. I actually discovered Ys VIII because of music from this channel. I then gave Falcom more money and bought multiple Ys games after, which I likely wouldn't have done without listening the music first.
As long the channel isn't monetized I really don't see a problem with this, easily accessible free game music on YouTube has led me to buy multiple games over the years, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Can Falcom music really be considered "generic JRPG music" when they're the literal originators of the staple fantasy JRPG soundtrack that everybody else in the genre is influenced by?

I think those mass delistings are a mix of the usual copyright shenanigans and that someone else uploaded the music in a shady way. K-Pop is disgusting and so are their fans, that sound is next to trap and mumble rap for one of the most annoying and horrible styles.

It made the Western tranny tumors (Resetera, Josep, Falcord, and r/Falcom) all officially start boycotting Falcom so I think this is based. I wish Falcom games weren't even localized.

All I'm gonna say is Josep and falcom (as a company) has had bad blood for years and a good part of it is mainly josep's fault. He got blocked by the official Twitter account of falcom for a reason.

Falcom's music policy allows anyone to do whatever they want as long as they follow the rules and that hasn't changed at all. Compared to se or others falcom is downright tame. So the strike wasn't because of ai or an overzealous lawyer. This was falcom finally reminding people who's in charge.
>>
>>743850127
Shame that most of the boycott is just Falcom Music Channel using his alt accounts again

People with a functional brain have already torrented Falcom's entire discography.

>>
>>743851081
They would've done a takedown much sooner than now if it was actually because of that. I don't believe they had any reason to strike the channel at this particular time if it wasn't the fact that they might have an incentive on their end they want to do stuff with their music like monetizing it a lot more heavily because this was out of the blue as far as I am concerned.
>>
>>743847216
it's because japanese copyright law is even more draconian than american copyright law
tl;dr if you don't actively protect it, you can lose it lawfully
>>
>>743852115
Falcom are in fact uploading osts on jewtube now so it could have played a factor in the final decision. In the end Japanese companies will only allow for as long as they feel like it. The moment they no longer see a reason to allow you to continue out comes the lawyers
>>
>>743852267
Yeah, that is what I understand to be happening. The main issue though is that they have blind spots in their catalog that has been pointed out in the past they still haven't covered yet and it feels like they put down the channel before they covered those gaps. Very niche stuff like sound OSTs from before they became famous or even soundtracks as recently as RINNE, they still haven't uploaded.
>>
Well Well Well, Imagine Not having a backup channel on bitchute because you all know since 2013 what kind of clown show YouTube is, only have to blame yourself

Boils down to this. Also lots, and lots of shills.

Either way, does the guy have a torrent or used an alternate upload site to archive all the albums? There's no one he doesn't still have copies of every song he uploaded so he can at least upload the albums that Falcom doesn't if what >>743852267 says is true.
Not Mega though, another major game OST site that used that got mass reported and lost everything.

The account holder used this channel to call people retard jeets in the comments. Considering a lot of people thought this was an official channel (including some Falcom staff apparently, they've linked to it on their website before) it's not wonder they'd want to wash it.

Their newest game with Kyoto Xanadu is still based, there's loli fanservice pantsu and swimsuits in it.
But what's happening with the Sky remakes is really concerning, they've been adding censorspats and severely toning down costume DLC. The fact that these are their global launch games while KX is only a JP launch shows they believe they must down down their games for the West. That's why I'm glad the most annoying cunts in the Western fanbase will abandon them for this.
>>
>>743852645
That doesn't look like official.
Channel - Topic is auto generated by Youtube itself.

>>743856368
Yeah it's just bad optics. Especially since josep is breeding the misunderstanding about being an official channel.

Unfortunately westrannies "abandoning" them won't matter, because these parasites are already inside the walls at their companies, so to speak.
