Abstract

Preventive measures to stop copyright infringement are yet to be implemented on current decentralized music-sharing platforms. There is no mechanism to reject modified audio before they go online, so some decentralized music platforms become places full of pirated audio files. To address this problem, a perceptual hash-based audio detection method for copyright protection in decentralized music sharing was proposed. Chromaprint, an open-source audio fingerprint program, generates a hash value to detect copyright infringement. To assess the perceptual hash technique’s robustness, Chromaprint generates a hash value from an audio file that can be modified with several signal processing attacks. The results of the detection system show that Chromaprint is very effective at spotting copyright infringement, with an average match rate of 92.64%. Deployed using a public Ethereum blockchain test network, the execution time from hashing to uploading to the IPFS distributed storage is only 616.3 ms.
