Post subject:  MP3

I like the idea of being able to play MP3s, however copyright laws vary and I do not believe that you can include a music file even though you possibly could prevent anyone from downloading the song, Limewire like.

"Brain on a Stick", I understand, was contributed royalty free as a promo/marketing initiative. My question is this. Has anyone run into a directory/site where new artists are willing to contribute a song or two to promote themselves? Maybe a theme for a new site ..

Regards

true the copywrite laws vary, but assuming that you're in the US, you'd be subject to the "fair use copywrite laws", which allow you to use 30 seconds of a copywritten song without infringing on their rights, as long as you aren't using it for a commercial work (Like a radio commercial, or something).

So say, if you used it for a private website or something you'd be alright.
