Good day everyone! I'm opening this new thread to ask you all whether it's allowed or not to use someone else's made music in a Warband module. This question came to my mind after i said in my mod's thread that i'd have used original Star Wars musics. The thing is: some people said it's allowed
Whereas others say it's not
Instead of going off - topic in that thread, i thought to open a new thread in this section. So: is using someone else's made music in a mod legal or not? And if some notes or parts were modified, would it be possibile?
Your thoughts...
Comrade Temuzu said:Im fairly sure that as long as you dont sell the music you are free to use it. For example, if you use music like that on Youtube, they will put ads on the video in order to pay for the usage permission, or something. In any case, mods can use all the music they want, as far as I know.
Whereas others say it's not
MadVader said:It doesn't work that way. Distributing copyrighted music without permission is illegal.
Mandible said:You can't give away something that doesn't belong to you. Distributing music via a mod to other people is the same as peer-to-peer. Handing out someone else's music is illegal, pure and simple.
