Copyrighted Content Licenses to Defend Against De-monitization and Other Youtube Problems

I’m constantly getting copyright strikes on the music that your program supplies.
I always get the same response from your staff, which is to fill out a form. The form never helps me. I am still getting content restrictions, demonization, and other problems stemming from YouTube identifying that I am using copyrighted music.
Please find a solution for this, which could include providing licenses along with the supplied music so that we can show YouTube that we are using the music with permission, rather than being treated like we are somehow illegally infringing on copyright.
It’s ridiculous to offer these content services within the descript system when we can’t do it legally, or we're punished according to the way a criminal would be treated.

Make Your App Work For YOUTUBERS

FACT: Youtubers need licenses for their stock video and music on youtube
FACT: Youtubers without licenses get demonetised and copyright stikes, which ENDS their youtube careers
THEREFORE: Youtubers can't live without the licenses to the stock material they use from an editing system
FACT: Descript makes it impossible to get the licenses for their stock footage (when you use the desktop app, when you use direct export, when you do ANYTHING other than 'use the youtube integration function on the browser app'.
FACT: Not all Youtubers want to 'use the youtube integration function on the browser app'. Some want to use the desktop app. Some want to see and append to their work via direct export prior to uploading to Youtube. Some would NEVER use a third party to upload to youtube.
THEREFORE: Descript's app is essentially unusable for most Youtubers.
THE FIX: Set up the direct export feature and other export options to include licenses and/or metadata required for Youtubers to do their jobs.
