Hello guys!

I have several tracks on Spotify, Apple Music etc. that contain acapella samples or covers of sample segments (such as a re-sung vocal sample lasting up to 30 seconds).

Some vocal samples are pitched down by +- 400 cents. One such track has 6 million Spotify streams, another has a million, and the rest have between 100,000 and 500,000.

Of course, I didn't obtain any licenses, although I tried.

What do you think the risk of being sued is? There haven't been any issues so far, but I'm considering deleting some of these tracks, because now I don't want any trouble. I didn't think about it so seriously before ;))

What's your opinion?
