Well that can easily be done, but then a second person comes along, and what
they need likely
isn't the same as what the first person needed. I think we seem to agree that
we can pretty
safely demand attribution and forbid advertisers without too much trouble,
but the real kicker
is, (as we've ben talking about it) do you want to make it legal for people
to share (or even
sell) your original songs? There's no clear consensus on that. Metallica says
no way, but most
indie bands say please do. So if you ever want to get a major-label artist on
the bandwagon,
you're gonna have to offer the "sharing is bad" option. But at the same time,
we want to
encourage sharing, so we really need to leave that option open.

That can't be too hard, can it? Just one option? I'd be happy to help with
the work if need be
(I can design a web page in no time, and can do some back-end coding, if
you're using jsp).

How hard it is for us to do aside, I'm not too sure we have to worry about it
being complicated
for the end user. We just have to do it right ;) If I have some time, I'll
mock it up for you
soon.

best,
Josh
