I have a really hard time thinking that someone like ASCAP won’t step in if this blows up. Having ondemand access to music that’s not your own has to violate some kind of licensing agreement in some manner?

With the music industry getting its butt kicked, I’m surprised all this attention being thrown into this niche, especially if they’re planning on making money the affiliate way? Or perhaps they’ve got another ace up their sleeve.

[...] Maestro : On-Demand access to your music at home from anywhere. “Maestro lets you stream music from your computer across the web, for easy listening anywhere. This is a lot like what music locker services Oboe, MediaMaster, and Orb are doing with a social networking twist. Not only can you stream music from your own computer using Maestro, but you can also stream music from your friends on the network (Oboe lets you share channels with friends, but through email links). They plan on expanding to other types of media in the future.”, from TechCrunch. [...]

After going through the different services I for some reason keep coming back to Maestro. Ive had one singular problem over the last decade and thats how do i get my same music from home to A.) My desk at work, B.) My car, and C.) Shared with my friends in such a way that I can just direct them at a new track, or an old one when we’re discussing music.

I dont particularly care to share photos, videos, or any of that other stuff that Orb does since I already have a Flickr account, Guba/YouTube account, etc. Im a fan of specialization. If im going to go look for a wedge of cheese im going to go to the specialty cheese shop that caters just to cheeses. I feel Orb and the rest might “look” nice, but for some reason technology wise ive always felt more comfortable with Maestro (though i do feel their interface needs a little cleanup, but i cant imagine they’re not thinking about that too).

I know this isnt quantifiable either, but the few people that are on Maestro with me right now actually *feel* like music fans. Ive enjoyed clicking down other peoples playlists and listening for a while.

Im rambled enough. Cheers.

i use Orb to stream to my friends the mixes i have on my PC and made in ACID (using purchased loops, settle down folks

mostly i paste links into facebook and AIM messages, myself – but the SMS thing alaric mentioned above is cool too for friends i know CAN stream music (which sure won’t include friends who buy an iPhone, cool as it looks)

Even if services like Maestro are legal, the RIAA has created a fear around the idea of sharing music. I’d love to see services like this thrive, but how do you overcome the stigma of sharing the RIAA created? Personally I believe this is where subscription services should excel, since everyone has a level playing field of music to share with friends.

sam, this is not illegal. You can share your music with everyone……

well, streaming copyrighterd music to untold thousands of strangers sounds like a radio station na da violation for fair use. if maestro was only streaming to a invited group of friends, it could skirt the use laws, but I’m with Sam above, in that I can’t imagine the RIAA sitting back and applauding. If this were legal everyone would be doing it.

Is there any limit on how many people can be connected at any one time? I thought the general idea was that sharing across the net was like playing a CD to four friends…

I’m sure the DMCA will get updated if this practice becomes popular and unethical.

Shame they don’t have any recommendation, so in my eyes last.fm and The Filter are leading the pack at the moment

Because there are no duplicate files being created, there is nothing legally the matter with sharing access to your own music with your friends. Think of it as playing a CD in your car while you drive somewhere with a couple of your friends. You are the owner of the music, this does not stop others from sharing your experience. A great deal of time has been spent on this issue, and will continue to be addressed in the coming months.

Enjoy the abilities and access that Maestro offers. Tell your friends, and expand your media experience!!

This is illegal. These guys wont get funded as the RIAA wont allow it and the lawyers will shut it down.

We could start a wager on how many days this will take from the post above.

Wanted to make a correction this is postiing. Orb is not an application where the music has to be uploaded. It streams directly from your PC to whatever device you are using with an Internet connection and a streaming media player. You can read more about it at http://www.orb.com/en/mymusic. Thanks.

“The songs aren’t uploaded to the service like MediaMaster, Orb, or Oboe, but instead streamed directly from your computer. ”

A correction:

Orb does not upload your music tunes on the service.

They are also streamed directly from your computer, and can be streamed not only via email, URL link, SMS link on the cell phone, but also posted via a very cool Flash embeddable player… check out http://www.orb.com and http://www.orb.com/myspace/ to know more…

(ah, and yes, you can also stream your videos, photos… Orb powers the only truly multimedia Flash widget out there)…

Enjoy!

“However, streaming from your friends may put an unnecessary strain on their bandwidth. I imagine some bandwidth rules will be implemented to prevent abuse.”

Maestro has already implemented a set of rules that will only utilize the owner’s bandwidth the first time the song is played. If a playlist is embeded in a myspace profile or elsewhere Maestro will consume 100% of the bandwidth and not the user that owns the media. Same rules apply for when you listen to your friend’s media and playlists.

Cheers and Enjoy!
