Agreed but that's Tom Scott. -
I guess my best thought so far was making these services enforce a process where a release, when added to the service, can only be assigned to an artist with explicit approval from that artist or the legal entity that represents them?

Joel McNeely has a direct email address on his site so he was an easy pick for a contact attempt, now he responded with "Wow, that’s unbelievable. How do they get away with this? I’m forwarding on to some people."

Second pass at an edit: I shortened Armada Battle. I realised a lot of the messiness comes from tempo shifts, abrupt/imperfect transitions and some basically 1:1 reprised segments. I narrowed down the key offenders to 3 sections that I removed: 2:48-3:32 (the Wings / Challenging the Alpha reprise), 4:55-5:39 (The Kill Ring reprise) and 6:22-6:44 (The Hiccup & Toothless Attacked reprise). Not to toot my own horn too much but something must be right about my "musical sense" because thankfully the first and third are actually on cue borders, some of the weaker transitions come from that, and because the FYC contains the cues separately that also gave me some clean openings/endings to work more flexibly with. The first and second are simple transitions, switch the later section in for the removed one when it would come in, let the buildup bleed through in a crossfade etc. The third was trickier since I was left with a buildup and a quiet unimpressive clean opening, so I snatched 3:30-3:32 for a quick brass and percussion burst to patch the transition with (and make a tiny fragment of the removed material live on!). To further "clean up" the tempo, I tightened up the 4:31-4:34 buildup to the fast Love Theme (made it start earlier, shortened it a tiny bit), and very slightly sped up 4:44-4:55 which is a kinda weird drop in tempo after that Love Theme. I'll need to live with it a bit, come back after some time of course, but I think I succeeded in tightening it up, focusing it more on the new stuff, new renditions and better integrated old renditions.

Now apparently there's a new batch from a different company for Goldsmith, Jarre, Poledouris... something needs to be done or this'll get out of hand.

Yeah, it jumps right into material that we're hearing for the first time as if it was known material he's free to vary, very different from the almost formal introductions in the other two. Y'all are mad, Powell's action is pretty much all awesome and fun. Also... Haha no, I can't even think of any that really affect me outside of the epilogue.
-
Well yeah the multiple cue track for one alternate thing is stupid but I can only really remember that happening in Sleepy Hollow.

And somebody else will find another one interesting. And somebody else will want to keep them all. And somebody will prefer a version and want to put it in the main program and it's easier when it's already joined in as intended, no editing needed, just a track rename. So where's the problem?
