No viable way to allow users to play Distrokid songs

In Clip It we have a Toolbox where players can pick from any free Audio in the Roblox catalog (grabbed from AssetService:SearchAudio()) to add to their clips. A huge issue with this currently is that a lot of our results are coming from @DistrokidOfficial which doesn’t allow us to use unless we explicitly download each sound to our profile, or we manually add each one to our place permissions. This simply just doesn’t work in our case since there’s so many of them that we’d have to add and we’d have to keep up to date with. Currently to work around this issue we’ve had to go in and blacklist all audio created by the @DistrokidOfficial account, which reduces the amount of the high quality audio we can provide to users.

Expected behavior

I would like to allow users to play Distrokid audios without us having to manually go and add permissions for each one.

@pashleyy — we are aware of this issue, and are discussing the best option to solve this. We’ll announce and update in the next few days.
