Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    i wouldnt advise facebook for anything music related. their terms and conditions basically mean that they own anything you upload, and you accept that by signing up

    its open to a lot of abuse from their end

    no thanks

    And how do forums in general protect your postings? - lets say i post a video here, that anyone can take it?

    I don't see a problem there if you are posting low quality content - it's not like you are posting full tracks in a releasable format - and the non-exclusive rights basically mean they can't stop you doing anything with your own versions.

    Unless FB are going to start to sell second hand youtube content ;)

    Can you explain how this can be Helix ?

    Say for example an artist/record company/publisher/management/whoever loads up a track they own legally.

    It's still their track, it doesn't matter where it is ...
    How can that be different on Facebook?

    in uploading it you give them permission to use it however they want, royalty free including sub licensing

    For what evil purpose would they use a (lets say) - 96k stream of audio.

    The one to watch out for - and a few people will know this one - it's called 'a waiver of rights' - that is the one that should start ringing large bells. :)

    Very Interesting indeed.

    Is that a Facebook only issue? Is that why there seems to be a lack of Music activity on Facebook , compared to Bebo for example?

    Would a link to a stream bypass that , as opposed to an actual upload?
