allow a wider range of external links(example: sound cloud)

Postby someguy » 12 May 2014, 14:47

So I think we should allow links like
Daily motion: like youtube but with less tense copyright stuff
monster cat: songs and alot of the songs aren't exactly available on youtube
sound cloud: same with monster cat links. For the sharing of songs
band camp: same with sound cloud links

these will be beneficial to fandom peeps and people wanting to share songs/videos not on youtube.

Don't worry I do not expect all of them to be accepted and no one will go off sitesince the web sites given arent exactly for discussions but for sharing
This guy is the embodiment of cringe.

eh, if these are music sharing websites like I think they are,(going off of what I know about Soundcloud) I wouldn't be up for the idea. The thing is, music sharing websites tend to have some copyright infringing actions, and that's what causes problems. From that, it looks like we are supporting this and there by causing trouble for us. I am not too sure about the details, and perhaps there are some that don't do that, but eh..
A website I would like to have however is listenonrepeat.com
It's basically repeating any video on youtube.

Fewer permitted links = a safer chatbox in general.

I'd really love to add a lot of links, but keeping a small list of essential ones is best.

I would aggree with Soundcloud, for they have songs and music channels not on YouTube and it's muuuuuccchhh easier and less laggy to put it as an external link on another social media. It loads almost instantly (unlike youtube where you gotta wait a good 30 seconds for it playing)

I say no to the other ones, but I honestly think SoundCloud would be good.

How about imgupr? It's hard to post images on the chat, plus using an iPad for google search links doesn't work.
