In fact Google has placed a Cease and Desist order against Groovy and Rhythm which caused two of the largest Discord music bots to be shut down.

While this is convenient for many wishing to listen to music on Discord it unfortunately comes at the cost of being frequently in trouble due to copyright issues. One of its features that happens to be much beloved by the masses is the ability to place music bots in their servers. It remains to be seen what the developers have in store, keeping in view YouTube's copyright restrictions.Discord Music Bots allow users to listen to music while playing games or chatting with friends.ĭiscord has been one of the best platforms to connect with your friends with plenty of features that makes it easy to build a community that share the same interests. As such, the Rythm team has advised users to keep the bot installed on their servers.

The bot's official website echoes similar sentiments, but an interesting note over there also emphasizes that work is underway on 'something brand new in the music space that will revolutionize how we all listen to music'. It’s a sad end of an era here for everyone on the platform. As someone that was a very early user on Discord it’s hard to envision Discord without music bots, they’ve become key to the experience and bring so much fun and engagement to a community. I believe that now that we received the letter, all music bots will be getting them too in the following weeks and I strongly believe all of them will shut down.

Groovy receiving one just meant it would happen sooner rather than later. One way or another we knew this was due to happen eventually, which is why we started working on something new a year ago.
