\"Music<\/a>Many webmasters have started hosting and offering illegal download links and also sharing MP3 music songs through their blogs. The site owners take the rules very lightly and feel that this a very easy way to earn money on the Internet.<\/p>\n

The Cyber Cell of Mumbai Crime Branch arrested a student in gujarat who was running a blog where readers could directly download pirated music songs while the licensed owners loosing money because of this. Following this when more tracking was done there were multiple websites found by the investigators like www.songsdl.com, www.mp3don.com etc Source : Indian Express<\/a><\/p>\n

This is nothing new because cases like these have become common these days because its the users who download these pirated content from these websites and in return help these pirated site owners more famous and encourage them. Its time you should stop downloading content from these kind of websites, about which we have had reported earlier too. Ex : Guruji.com offering illegal MP3 Songs<\/a> while legal sites like Hungama.com<\/a> never getting the right promotion.<\/p>\n

Around 3 years back a guy from North India buzzed me on Google Talk seeking for help on what to do, after getting a legal notice from one of the large Music Production House from India. The case came up when he was offering illegal downloads through his blogs and T-Series sent him a notice along with a huge amount of fees. Check out the article where in T-Series moves to delhi high court against YouTube<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Do you know someone who offers these kind of services, its better to suggest them to stop these kind of websites or else they would get themselves into so big problems that coming out of those would be very hard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
