So what's the problem again? Most of the stuff we upload is downloaded by one or two people, the ones that requested it. We'll have fun until they get us (if they ever do), and I see absolutely no sense in making an issue out of this before it's become one....

I do not want a lawsuit for anyone on this site, add all the links we've posted together thats a shitload of money and someone will have to pay. Or the admin could just decide it isn't worth it and delete the entire site.

I just read the letter to other labels...did anyone else get this lets war against the music fans vibe?

Probably not since musicbanter is high up on a search engine. Often when I search album + upload site I get me asking for it on here.

They don't really care if it's one persone or a thousand.

Well, no one's complained yet. If and when they do I'm sure they'll just ask the admin to remove the thread or summink...then we'll just figure out another way to share...but like I said, we've had similar discussion before and we're still doing fine, I see no use of bitching about it before anything's happened.

The people have proved to be bullying assholes I really think we should deal with this before it happens.

If people are worried here and judging by other sites experiences, we have good reason to be, then it may be a good idea for people posting in the sharing thread, to simply type what they have in way of an upload, with the words, "link available on request".
Then anyone who needs the link can pm that member for the link, preferably via e-mail.

I say we start over with sharing thread, lock the one we have, and in the first post explain that it's a pm system and no links should be used

I don't think people really need telling to put it in PMs.

You either stop it totally or you don't. If you are going to stop it on the main site you can't say 'do it in PMs' on the boards because that's seen to just encourage it.

You can turn a blind eye to what goes on in PMs , but you can't be seen to be turning a blind eye it if you get my meaning.

Urbans right though we'll still be seen doing it.

We couldstart a rateyourmusic/recordnerd/albums list thread and if someone sees something they want they PM that person and they upload/find a link or something. Or we could just straight a new sharing thread soft delete the old ones (members/guests can't see it but mods can), get rid of the links and when we get told to stop uploading in the sharing thread we soft delete that one and then do the rateyourmusic plan.
