YouTube Content ID for Published Beats

I am reaching out to express a concern that I believe many creators, including myself, are facing. As of now, it will take an immense amount of time for me to re-upload all my beats to enable YouTube Content ID on them. This process is extremely time-consuming, and it will likely take me a lifetime to complete.

Additionally, I have encountered a significant issue where multiple artists have enabled Content ID on my beats (which they are using without an exclusive license). This has severely impacted my YouTube revenue, as I am forced to submit copyright removals or issue disputes, often leaving my earnings in escrow until the matter is resolved.

While I am incredibly grateful for the option to enable Content ID on new releases via BeatStars, I am unable to do this for my existing beats. I kindly request that you consider adding a feature to enable Content ID for previously uploaded beats. This would allow me to effectively protect my intellectual property without the need to re-upload hundreds of tracks or modify numerous YouTube videos and links.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you and hope a solution can be found.
