MOD: Audio Support - Song Download Checkbox
Using Jamroom
brian:
This actually something in the latest audio module which will be out today - basically if you uncheck the "Block MP3 Downloads" and the song is NOT for sale, then a download button will show up in the audio detail page.
Hope this helps!
We don't sell songs Brian.
We just want the ability for the artists to allow downloading of their material or not. ( Any smart person can work around that we know )
I think that if an Artist posts their music they should still have the call.
Not wether it is in the shop or not.
As they may wish the user to listen to their music and either wish the user to download or purchase, Shouldn't that be up to the Artist?
I think a few more fields need to be set to distinguish this.
I have implemented Michaels edits above and they work fine as the uploader ( artist ) can tick the box wether they want it downloaded or not.
I haven't yet tried the new version but from your description you are saying UNLESS IT'S IN THE SHOP then a download button will show up on the artists song?
This may not be what Artists want?
They may just want to stream but from my understanding from your post you are saying:
If mp3 downloads are unblocked
And the song is not in the shop
Then the download button will be visible and useable?
I feel this is not what Artists want as they want to have a FEW more choices
Like
Only allow stream ( ie im not selling my songs ) etc
I think that it should be set as Michael said as it gives the artists full control.
If they wish to put it in the shop then they would not allow downloads from the profile.....correct?
And then a link from the song would say like " BUY NOW: 99 Cents"
They would have a BUY IT NOW button or something that would send them to the shop????
Sorry if i'm missing something but it only make sense for an artist driven site. If you are a label or something it may be different.
Thoughts?
