Hi guys!

As a Youtube creator, I've always spent great amount of time finding legitimate and relevant music for the videos.

And I've frequently found great Creative Commons music, in Youtube videos of other creators I like.

So I decided to build a simple website where creators can search for Creative Commons music used by Youtube creators and ranked by usage in Youtube videos.

I think this service may help video creators reduce time spent on finding free and relevant music, by checking what music other great creators have used in their videos.

But before I jump into coding this service, I wanna know If there is any actual need for it.

Please let me know if you're gonna need this service when finding music for the video, by opting into beta test in the link below. Thanks!

Why must this be an application with a demo? You can easily make a website with the same purpose.

It is a website.

I think the reason why the GP stated that is because the site requires you to provide an email and states it as a demo. I would love to look at a site like this, but I agree that there seems to be no good reason to provide an email address to see the results for a website like this.

Why the email address grab?

You should reconsider the name of your site. Unless your plan is to get some coverage when Youtube comes after you.

It looks nice but cant really get a good understanding unless there's a video or gif showing the product use. I'm not sure if Indie makers would like this 'email for demo' feature that much.

Are the songs in the example images just placeholders or is there an actual way to use the music from major artists like Bieber or Maroon 5 "for free" as it appears? Also I didn't receive an email/your throwaway mail recognition works.

I know it's already been said, but honestly:

1. Nobody wants to give you an e-mail address just to see this.

2. If it's such a "simple website", why does it appear that you are trying to make it premium-only for access?

3. The name of your service is going to get you sued.

Gotta make money some how, selling user data is an easy way to do that.
