commercially viable, and I'm trying to do whatever I can to protect
the artist from unauthorized commercial use.
If you want to protect the audio files, then you need to place them in a
location from you only can access the files if you have authorized yourself
before, you can still make it easy and have the files as mp3's as Ed suggested.
I understand that, with
some technical knowledge, nothing is completely foolproof, but I want
to make it as difficult as possible for the MP3 file to be captured to
a casual listeners computer.
All audio that can be played on a computer, can be easily captured, just
record the audio out and you have a wav file with the same quality audio as
the audio streamed from your site.
If anybody here can suggest a more secure way to do it, I'd sure like
to hear about it. Thanks.
As you say you have a password protection on your site and it's only your
family who has access to the page, why make it more difficult for them to
listen to the music?
