Google hit discord with a cease and desist letter that will take the popular rhythm music bot, which streams audio from into voice chats, offline. вЂњWe canвЂ™t share much yet, but keep Rythm in your servers and subscribe to our newsletter to get updates as we release them over the next few months. Posted: (4 days ago) Shuts Down Popular Discord Music Bot Rhythm And. If there are outages on the Rythm bot Discord server, you have nothing to do about it. Either there is some maintenance undergoing, or the Rythm bot Discord server is going through outages, which is why itвЂ™s not working. WeвЂ™ve spent the last year working on something brand new in the music space that will revolutionize how we all listen to music,вЂќ promised the company in its shutdown message. There are times when the Rythm bot goes offline. This may not be the end of RythmвЂs efforts, though. вЂњItвЂ™s hard to envision Discord without music bots, theyвЂ™ve become key to the experience and bring so much fun and engagement to a community,вЂќ said RythmвЂ™s creator. In legal terms, the bots canвЂ™t really complain, but there is the sense of an opportunity to be taken if YouTube (or, indeed, any streaming service) can find a model in partnership with Discord to provide similar functionality. ThatвЂ™s going to affect a lot of people: according to The Verge, Rythm is installed on more than 20m Discord servers, with a notional reach of more than 560 million people. After a cease-and-desist order from YouTube, the bot will shut down on 15 September. Having recently shut down a popular bot called Groovy, now YouTube has come for the other big player in the space: Rythm. YouTube really doesnвЂ™t approve of bots that let people pull music from its platform into social platform Discord.
