Valve doesn’t let you play the music, unless the publisher adds it and you purchase it separately as an OST (for which Valve is protected as that is the publisher’s actions).
If this succeeds then I declare anarchy. Rules are no longer a thing, anywhere. If corporations can just make up any bullshit they want then I’m going to start suing all the music industry associations for including their music in commercials which did NOT license my ears to receive it.
They don’t license the samples that an artist might’ve licensed, but they “sell” them as part of the song. The same braindead logic from the lawsuit can be applied here.

You’re conflating the streaming side vs the buying a track side.
