Stay Safe From RIAA Targeting!
Intellectual Property Rights / User Rights -- Downloaded Music Files
Our files are for the reasonable possession and enjoyment of the registered
purchaser. It is important, however, that these files, once properly
obtained, not be inserted into a file sharing regime. This is the
controverted behaviour receiving much publicity lately. In such cases both
we and the RIAA have a conflict with that controverted behaviour.
We are a responsible Canadian company (Canadian Web Music Alliance) owning and
operating a range of internet publishing and software distribution
properties.
It is our contention that obtaining a music file from our servers is the
equivalent of visiting a brick and mortar reseller. All site visitor's are
invited guests and in context must behave accordingly and abide by our
Acceptable Use Policies.
No special software is required, only a properly authenticated membership which is
provided in the form of a "License" the purchaser is assigned and
receives when paying through our e-commerce process, powered by industry
giant Digital River's RegNow system (http://www.regnow.com/).
Any files or software downloaded from our internet sites will be the property of the registered (licensed) user (member) for that person's exclusive use. In common law, such files, where the possessor does not also have possession of the original medium (i.e.: a CD), are considered to be under "lease" or "license" without time limit for as long as there are no violations, which assures a set of reasonable "fair use" rights to the registered purchaser. An example of common law fair use would include sharing such resources for personal use within a household BUT NOT placing such files in the wild on the internet through file sharing programs like Kazaa, Morpheus and others of the kind; nor any other form of improper distribution in any medium. This behaviour is EXPRESSLY FORBIDDEN.
All files are tracked from the moment of download. What the user doesn't see is that each download as a registered, licensed member is traceably, verifiably registered to the member under that member's license. Consequently the member has done his/her due diligence and is assigned all rights of leased ownership.
Integrity of File Structures
All files are stored on non-routable backend file servers which feed our
front-end web interfaces through secure channels -- in other words they
cannot be 'poisoned' by malicious hackers. All user access is provided
through double authentication security. All files are polled and scanned
regularly for viruses and malware; and then again in real time at
transmission to the client computer.
Important notice to parents about content.
Whereas there is a trend within the music industry to back away from
prolific profanity and seditious comment in musical lyric content, we
strongly suggest parents nevertheless monitor and discuss with their
children any controversial music they entertain themselves with. We do not
provide any assurances about the moral content of any artist's creation, and
in fact are inclined to advise parents that a thorough education in the use
of extreme profanity can be obtained from some musician's body of work.
Please be wary of your children's preferences in music content and
administer whatever censorship you see fit within your own domain. We are
prepared to assist parents in this regard by any reasonable measure
available too us.
