I'm kind of confused

about whether selling music on this site is permitted or not.......the post I just read ("I have some items that may interest people on this site") seems to imply selling is permitted. 3/18/2011

Cory, it depends on what you want to sell. If you want to sell records, cd's, dvd's or DJ equipment you can open a post in this subforum.

What we do NOT allow are MP3' or CDR's, simply everything that is a copy of a track or broadcast where you are not the legal rights holder.

Also important to notice is that you will always do business at your own risk. Discomusic.com as a site nor the administrator can be hold responsible of the business third parties do here.

If you have more questions, feel free to PM us about 'em.

thanks, vid. The reason I asked is because I sometimes buy multiple copies of records that I already own and selling on sites like eBay and Amazon seems a bit complicated. While I have your attention, I wonder if I can impose on you to answer a question (well, several questions) I've wanted to ask for a long long time but have been postponing since I'm sure it will reveal just how naive I am about computer matters. It's this: I don't download music (not bragging here but after collecting music for more than 30 years I now own most of the music I want but still shop just for the thrill of unearthing unexpected delights) so I have no idea how downloading works but I sometimes wonder...can absolutely anyone make their recordings available for downloading or is that restricted to people working in the industry? Are people compensated for making rare recordings available for downloading? What about the copyright infringement issues? And do you suppose the recent issue of bootleg vinyl recordings is related to downloading? Thanks.

Cory, it would more sense to ask those questions of the actual download service like iTunes...
