👍 𝒮σℓνє∂ Copyright ahhhh

[SxBadboy]

Just a question for anyone in the know

i dont know if anyone has noticed but the uploader PMedia copyright owner locks (stating he is the copyright owner) all the music he uploads
now i'm no genius and not fully up to scratch with the laws regarding copyright but ....

if i'm not mistaken by doing so he is putting every site and person who has anything he has uploaded at risk of being sued,

years ago nobody did such an action to the music files in order to protect everyone, if its not copyright locked you got it from a friend or a cd and it was personal use not shared with everyone, so has something in the law changed that it is now allowed???

someone please enlighten me and stop my nerves

if you go into the music file properties, under the details tab you are able to adjust parameters, like artist/album/track etc etc
well i always remove copyright as its not normally locked but pmedia seems to lock the copyright thus saying he owns the copyright to the music when in fact its owned by the artist or recording company etc so he is violating many copyright laws
now years ago when i started using peer to peer sites there always notice to never change the copyright or put your details (name or handle) in it
thus preventing breach of copyright
so has the law changed or is pmedia infact putting us all in danger of prosecution as i doubt pmedia owns multiple recording companies or is a multi millionaire who can purchase the copyright of every record he has put on the sites he uses

Just to add a bit of info, I have had a look at what you have mentioned about PMEDIA being listed as the copyright owner just out of curiosity, and yes it is on every song title, But I have not found it locked and I can change it whatever I like using "MP3tag" this allows me to change any tag info including the "Copyright" so I have not found it locked and it is changeable.

I don' really understand what you're saying by copyright lock. can you explain a bit so we can answer this appropriately..

And you can also use 2 of these to do the deed, MediaMonkey or Winamp also known to Add/Edit/Remove tags.

Good luck!
