Saint_Michael 3 Report post Posted January 4, 2006 the answer is no since most mp3 sites have illegal music downloads to begin with, it breaks our TOS and rules and your account will be termintated if your site has this info on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sprnknwn 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2006 Anyway, those sites that host illegal mp3 usually replace them with new albums periodically, so if you hotlink those files, you?ll discover that they had dissapeared soon.Maybe you could put just a link to the site, not to an especific mp3 or record. But I don?t know if this breaks the TOS also... probably it does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bucksta 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2006 yeah. copyrights are strict. if the music is copyrighted and you put it on your site, it's just like stealing. and its also good to register with the U.S Copyright Office just in case your site becomes a major addtction.

I have a few mp3's and videos that I made myself and would like to be able to share then. I guess I am not allowed to upload them to Xisto, but would it be okay if I found another place to host the files and link them from my Xisto site.(Any suggestions where I might be able to host these somewhat large files (20mb) for free and without ads) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
