Legal Question in Intellectual Property in Pennsylvania
Am I violating copyright laws.
I am in the process of building a website, for now at the domain I would like to place a home page that has the website logo and a pre sign up form. When you connect to the home page music will begin to play from a random list of music tracks that are stored in my server. All the music tracks are from well now artist and are protected by copyright. I will not be selling any music tracks it will just play when you�re on the home page, to add to the theme of the site. Will I be violating any copyright laws.

You will need to obtain compulsory licenses as part of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act to broadcast this music. My firm can help you obtain these licenses.
