Forum Music Player

[zapiy]

Greyfox had an idea for a forum music player.

any thoughts on a in forum music player, eg. sid player, atari st , mega drive, snes, java player maybe?...it's always good to be listening to some music while reading, helps set the mood

And suggested a poll for you all to decide. What i will say is it wont be intrusive it will be made so you start it if you want to hear it. Not Auto..

So what ya think?

[Greyfox]

I think this is a great idea, who doesn't love abit of Hubbard, Follin, or Galway playing in the background when browsing this great forum and site, I sure for one do. and would to see this relized..so please vote yes

[TL]

Great idea, especially if its all game music.

[zapiy]

Yep that's what I am thinking.

I usally have spotify running when i 'm on the net but it'll be good to have on here and if it's all old gaming music that'll make it even better
Sonic,tetris and mario theme's have got to be on the list lol

[Greyfox]

this looks like it's a goer..for the music player..will be cool if it can be pulled off..

Looks good to me, we need to source mp3 music files that are not likely to get me sent to prison lol.

Can just rip them from YouTube, I have a program that does it.

Did you miss the part about prison lol.

Stuff on YouTube is public so its not illegal to rip it

Hmmm i'm not too about it still been able to use on a site without some sort of licensing.But there is some websites you build a playlist of music using youtube videos and add it to your page.
I'll have a look as i used stuff like it on my myspace page ages ago

If its been uploaded by a member of the public then its a public license so its fine to rip it, near enough all video game music falls into this catagory. This is why you are allowed to embed the videos / music on other sites.

Stuff uploaded by record companies and artists themselves is different, you usually find that you cannot embed this elsewhere for that reason.

Reviews first.
