Why the email address grab?

Sorry for miscommunication. The site is not actual service yet. It is just showing the concept and key values of this service. And the reason why I collect the email is that I wanna validate market needs for this service and notify the opted-in people when the service is launched.

So I changed the button name to 'get notified when launched'.

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.

No, the major artist's songs would not be downloadable. You would only check that the song is used in the Youtube video or channel.

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

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.

And I think I need to change the service name.

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.

It is used just for getting notified when the service is actually launched

I originally voted for this since it seems like a good idea but then unvoted it because it just a landing page with nothing to show for (which is against HN guidelines for show hn iirc)

Regardless I think you should post it again when the access is available for everyone and I'll happily vote for you.
