Can my listeners download and save music?

The beauty of QuickTime as a platform, besides its incredible clarity, is that the QuickTime player does not permit the saving of streaming songs or other streaming audio. This protects artists’ content and allows you to remain in compliance with the United States streaming laws. However, if your listener is interested in a particular song and your clips have URLs to the iTunes Store they can click through to purchase the song or other audio for immediate download.


Some tuners and players that support our streams do enable limited recording for personal use and time-shifting of content.  These are fair use exceptions to the copyright law under which they are operating.  See the acceptable use license of those particular tuners for more specifics.

Along with visual text information regarding the show, program, artist, song, album and copyright information, you can send one or more displayed images, such as the album cover or artist’s head shot.
