Why is there Streamer mode?

[Kimarnic]

If every song is made for this game?
I was expecting real life music or something, so whats the point of streamer mode.

for content creators so they can avoid getting copyright claimed or dmca takedowns when playing the game

Oh they're all boss themes, stages use HiFi Rush music, bosses use real songs.
I haven't fought a boss in a while

There are stages using "real" songs. Just because you haven't heard of the artists doesn't mean they only exist for the game.

They always say "HiFi Rush originals"

They are still not limited to boss fights though. Easy example is the second area of track 10, the big fight against normal enemies in the cafeteria, is copyrighted music.

Also the Intro cinematic, the credits, and all of Track 11.

I don't understand this either. The 1,000,000 boss fight disables the NIN track with streamer mode on, but the track is from a free album.

The album (The Slip by Nine Inch Nails[en.wikipedia.org]) is not "free" without restrictions.

Tango would have had to negotiate a separate commercial license to use and modify it for the game.

Tbh I actually like the original soundtracks more than the copyrighted ones.
