I thought actually mamake king copies of music that is copyrighted is illegal, not making software that lets you record or download songs. Saying this application is against the law is like saying a the ability to copy and paste in a browser is breaking the law…its just not so until the user actually copies and pastes copyrighted material.

This is not legal. They will be in court or shut down in the next 3-6 months I think. I have written a review over at http://routenot...ng-soon-enough/ Take a look and would be great to hear your thoughts. RouteNote is aimed to help musicians get coverage and actually make money from their music. Songbeat is just about profiting from others.

agreed

and a search for some reasonable artists produced dismal results, very disappointing.

the radio did not understand the genre search, the “ban” this track didn’t work and i was being force fed muzak

terrible.

George, I’m confused! What makes you think that downloading songs from the internet is illegal?

By: Lucas Gonze

Actually, it’s the upload rather than the download which is regulated. Copyright regulates distributors.

The downloader is never infringing. The uploading site is sometimes infringing — it lies in the hands of the the uploading site to discern whether or not they have the right to distribute the particular music file at hand.

Songbeat, no. Songbird, yes! I don’t know why anyone would bother with this when Songbird’s open source music player is leaps and bounds better.

George, it is absolutely legal. Songbeat is 100% accurate; the act of downloading a music file is not illegal. It’s the downloading of copyrighted material that is illegal. It is not Songbeat’s responsibility to police and enforce the law. They are providing a tool to help users discover legal music – if the end user violates that Terms of Use Songbeat provides, Songbeat cannot and should not be held liable…

Now I’m a realist – of course Songbeat knows most of their traffic will come from piracy. But that’s not the point. Of course lawsuits will follow, and Songbeat better be willing to step into the ring with the recording industry. But when it comes down to brass tacks, they have a sound ToU, a sound legal statement, and a sound case.

To say Songbeat should not exist because of the legalities would be like saying YouTube shouldn’t exist.

[...] There’s a new version of Songbeat, a simple but powerful desktop application for discovering music online, and I like it. When it was first released earlier this year, the client only enabled you to search for music online using Seeqpod, but the updated version lets you search more engines at once and also lets you easily play, export and download songs.
