It is important that everyone thinks twice before posting links to content outside the forum. Because the legal position differs from country to country, we have to remain vigilant that posts do not contain links to copyrighted material where the copyright owner is not posting the link. Special attention needs to be paid when you post links to music downloads as well. This means that we will remove links from posts with no further discussion or justification if there’s any doubt.

You Tube etc.  
Please do not post links to music tracks or videos unless:

**1) The site is licenced to do so.  
2) You own the copyright in that content.  
3) You have permission from the copyright holder.**

Steinberg obviously wants people to respect the copyright in its software and as such we must help protect the rights of other copyright holders.

Thanks for your understanding.
