    I doubt they could stop people from sharing music in here, unless they totally kill the music upload facility. We could probably still share "privately." :D

    yep, this has been going on for some time now... the purge of the music... most of the peeps i know who got reprimanded by the man are now just sharing the music privately and within their select group of friends...

    ahh well, it was bound to happen... back to torrents and rapidshare... lol

    if you only upload it for contacts,there's no worries :o) it's just uploads for everyone that they get narky about.

    We did electronically sign an agreement to the effect that we aren't going to be uploading copyrighted stuff. Multiply is being kind in simply changing the settings of our posts, informing us of the fact and giving a venue for feedback.

    It still doesn't change that sucky feeling, though.

    So when I finally find it in me to MAKE my own songs, I'll start uploading my non-copyrighted pieces and share my beautiful music with everyone. Hold on, gimme a few hundred years to evolve a musical bone... :)

    On a serious note, copyrighted music is not as "affordable" as it used to be...
