On Grooveshark though, attribution to the artist is actually unavoidable.
- carussell 15y agoNo, two years ago, Grooveshark existed ostensibly to allow artists to upload their own work. So what really happened was that the majority of the content there was major-label music being attributed to "kubraffle622" and the like.
- stinkytaco 15y agoThough you had to put the title, and often the artist name in the filename/title because that's what people were looking for. It's a bit different at FJ because the Oatmeal isn't mainstream, it just sort of appears in someone's vision and is then discarded. Music searching is a different sort of experience.
- carussell 15y agoWe're not talking about user experiences, we're talking about the tactics used by the hosting party to disclaim any responsibility while being complicit in what the users are doing.
