Legal use of music on webpage?

I've searched the Discussions related to iWeb, but although I found many good ideas about how to embed a piece of music on a webpage, I am lacking some critical information.
It is not clear to me whether or not I can legally post a piece of music on my webpage to automatically play when someone views the page. It appears to me that even if it is music that I own, that does not give me the legal right to play it on a webpage as it appears that the music file can be saved on someone else's computer easily by right-clicking on the webpage element. At that point, then it may be seen as "illegally providing" music to someone else in violation of copyright (and Digital Milennium Copyright Act).
If anyone can point me to some better sources on what legally can or cannot be done with music and webpages, I'd be most appreciative.
Please, I just want advice on the correct and legal use of music on webpages. I am not interested in workarounds. Thanks.

if it is music that I own, that does not give me the legal right to play it on a webpage
You do not own the music. You own a license which allows you to listen to the music. You can not provide music you do not own copyright for (you did not write, perform, and record yourself) without expressed written permission from the copyright holder.
Need someone to point you to some better sources? Google is the best resource. _Google copyright music website_

Is it legal to AirDrop an app to another MacBook?

I was just wondering if it is legal to AirDrop MC Domination to a friend. I have paid for MC Domination.

That completely depends on the license agreement for the software. Some software says you get one installation. Some says two. Some says up to 5 in a household. But most that allow multiple installations still say they are for only one user, and it sounds like your friend would count as user #2. You have to read the license agreement for that software to figure out if you're breaking the law.

Is it legal to add music from your own library onto someone elses IPOD????

My friend wanted me to add some of my music onto his IPOD and the link for his IPOD will not show up in my ITunes. I do not know if it is legal to do this and perhaps this is preventing me from transferring the music. He has used the IPOD on his own computer before...

Probably has nothing to do with your technical problem, but it is illegal for you to put your music on his iPod.
Please don't steal music (or help him do so).

Is it legal to put music from library to a cd, then putting it on another itunes?

My brother and I both have Ipods. He just got his recently, and he would have to start buying new songs. We listen to the same type of music, and theres songs that I have on my ipod that he wants. Is it legal for me to take songs from my library and put them on a cd, then put the Cd on his itunes library so he wouldnt have to buy the songs?

Legal....eh. In the strictest definition of the rules, probably not. In the perfect world of the music mogle every single person will buy a copy thus maximizing their earnings potential. But we don't live in a perfect world.
Kinda falls under music 'don't ask/don't tell'....don't ask how, don't tell anyone what you're doing, and in the grand scheme of things no one's really going to care.

Is it legal to subscribe podcast from itunes US if i am not american?

i kind of saw a term that said :"The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." in REQUIREMENTS FOR USE OF THE ITUNES SERVICE of B. ITUNES STORE TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
so does it means it's not legal to access american store if i am not a american? i know it may be legal to purchase music or apps there.But is it exclude subscribe podcast？coz we dont even need an account if we wanna subscribe podcast from itunes store US.
PS:i found FAQ about podcast http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/fanfaq.html in apple's official website. although it's still a US webpage.
How can I find podcasts in my language?
To see podcasts that are popular in other countries, click on the Home icon to go to the main page for the iTunes store. At the bottom of the main page is a My Store menu that allows you to switch to different stores. Once in the desired store, navigate to the Podcasts page. In the Top Podcasts list, for example, you will find podcasts popular in that country“
Does it means it's okay it's legal to access other country's itunes store?
Someone one help me ... THX!

The iTunes Store does not host podcasts themselves, only links to them, so you can probably find a direct link to any given podcast by searching the web. Then you can see what terms the providers of the podcast has, if any, for who can access it.
Regards.

How to transfer music from an external iPod to my media center?

I´ve got an iPod, that isn´t mine, but I like to put the music, which is on this ipod, on my iPod. Can you please help me?
Thanks!

You would need to legally purchase the music, either by download from someplace like the iTunes Store or Amazon or by purchasing the CDs.
Best of luck.

HT1351 Can I sync my iPod with my friends library legally?

I want to listen to my friends music, but I am not interested in breaking the law or circumventing anything. Can she share her music with me legally by allowing me to sync my iPod with her computer for a time? I am ok with it erasing my content. When I sync back to my account it will erase her content then. Is this acceptable?

No, you cannot.
It is not legal to give music that you purchase to others.
your friend has only purchased the right to use the music for his/her own personal use.

Is this legal?

Hi

No, it is not.

All music on ipod and i can't get it into itunes

hello
i have been having trouble with my iphone. i have exchanged it multiple times and figured it has to have something to do with my computer. so in an attempt to avoid exchanging it again, i made sure all of my music was backed up to my ipod (which it usually is) and i tossed my itunes. i reinstalled it and everything has been smooth sailing with my iphone for a few weeks.
fast forward to today when i go to sync my ipod after buying some more music. i get an error message that tells me that my ipod is sync'd with another itunes library and if i sync it, it will erase all of the music on the ipod.
i wouldn't be so bummed except for the fact that earlier this year, i put every cd i had on my itunes and sold them all at a garage sale.
please help
suzanne

to get your music off your iPod the easy way you need an additional application like SENUTI

That's even worse - now you don't legally own that music anymory

Copying music library to iPhone

As the subject says, I want to copy my music library from my IPOD Nano 5th Generation to my friend's iPhone [3GS]. How do I do that? Yes, my music library is completely legal and all music has been paid for.

OK, thanks for the answer. Hope this next question is not stepping on toes. I would assume that he can sync my music library through iTunes using my account but if I hook up his iPhone to my computer [to my iTunes account] won't that kinda screw up my Nano being recognized when I go back to my account? Hope I didn't confuse you there!

Unable to connect Nokia 5130 with Nokia Music - Ca...

I've never had this much trouble with a Nokia before
I can't connect the mobile phone with Nokia Ovi music software, however the phone can be connected
through USB and Bluetooth to the PC and files can be transferred between...
So I can legally download the music with Nokia Ovi but I can't use them. this whole program seems like a huge glitch to me. <Yes I have the 1 free year of music download service that came with the cell phone>
I can transfer the music to the phone though Nokia Ovi Suite using Bluetooth, but not with Nokia Ovi player, however they do not work because they are protected files!?!
Someone please tell me how to proceed ?! Nokia Ovi player only says the mobile phone has been connected in an inappropriate way... very confusing... whats the problem ??
I have reinstalled all the software and drivers several times. I'm running Windows Vista SP2.

I think the issue here has to do with the drivers... everytime I reinstall everything and connect the phone through USB the windows starts installing some drivers... why? shouldn't it all be there once I install using the CD I got with my phone?
Wouldn't be the first time Windows messes up drivers.. what can I do?
