Update:

They will make an announcement if the account gets unbanned.

Artists/producers usually let these channels/playlists use their music for free in exchange for exposure/plays. Some like Chillhop Music transitioned to a music label and did sign some of the artists.
That reason would probably be using their music without permission.
Sure would be nice if they explained what happened.
Happy this worked out. But still, Fuck YouTube.
?
It's just a channel that plays music, what's dumbass about that? And there's nothing memey about it other than just the fact that a ton of people listen to it.
ChilledCow us back! Evil defeated!
Thank you. No clue where that kind of mindset comes from. It's literally chill music, not a meme.
I would LOVE to know where the girl comes from. I keep thinking shes from some movie but Im not sure and its freaking me out
Well, originally it was this image:
And that's from this film.
I assume they changed it to their own artwork as to not step on any toes.
YouTube? Explain? Hah you would have a better shot of having an official explaination from twitch when they ban someone (which is to say you never will)
At least the evil was defeated and the world has returned to listen to some chill beats!
218M views in over 13.1k hrs of video with average time of 50min watch timeI just noticed this on my subscription feed:
Looks like it got 218 million views while it ran and it ran for a runtime of 13,165:23:44...whatever that means.
This is their other stream:
That ain't bad but considering how long it could take to make some of the music it may not be as efficient as a YouTube 15min video by let's say Markiplier where it gains 20-50M views but who knows to release 15-20min of video a day you would need to work all the time to the point that you would burn yourself out real quick or hire an editor or two which then you would obviously have to pay. Plus ads on a music channel would probably tank those numbers a little bit at the very least the watch time for sure. Interesting stuff tho
Edit: if the music is licensed and all that they should go for a sponsorship tbh, just have some like small thing on the bottom right of the screen for how many hours the sponsor is for and boom, way to receive money without hitting your listeners with audio/visual ads that defeat the purpose of the channel

mystery solved
Reading this now. Pretty interesting so far.im not even sad considering the economics of it all

One of my favorite aspects of the channel is the live chat. It reminds me of old-school internet chatrooms full of people procrastinating their way through an education. It has a great sense of community and civility mixed with anonymity that feels largely lost from the modern internet.
Glad it's been restored!

There are so many international people in the chat too, it's like a little global community.
I had this happen to my account once. No notice whatsoever, no indication what the "violation" actually was, just a random ban. I appealed it, and two days later got the same "whoops" e-mail back, still with no indication of how or why it happened.
You'd think if YouTube wanted to make sure people follow their rules and guidelines, they'd let people know if something breaks them so that it doesn't happen again. Garbage-ass company.
I'm pretty sure Google just has an algorithm that autobans people after a certain number of complaints or flags. Opens you up to trolls or false flags like this, but it's way easier for them to say "whoops, sorry!" than it is to actually control the content on YouTube.
I love how both the ban and the unban say "after review". It's a totally meaningless piece of verbage.
I stopped listening to this when I found out ChilledCow was problematic. Can someone remind me of the details though?
Me: "What should I listen to for 12 hours."

Sorry I don't keep a diary - but I remember being disappointed.
