This might not be the correct community, but if anyone knows anything about dmca and the like here, i guess it is you guys!
I am wondering what is likely to happen if i made a blog where i would make songs available? Not in a “here are a thousand albums to download for free”, but more discussing a single song in a blog post and embedding it in a playable state (and thus also downloadable) served directly from my server (and not some spotify / soundcloud / whatever link).
The blog would not be anonymous, it would be possible to trace the server and everything directly to me. Blog would likely be obscure and not grow much. There would be no ad revenues. I am based in norway (in europe, not in the eu but in the eea in case you are not aware).
Am i looking at a couple of dmca takedown requests, legally enforceable fines, lawsuits? I dont expect to get legal advise i can use as a basis for my defense in a potential legal case in the future, but just wanted to know if you had any insights in what could happen.
If you fear takedowns, and if the musics you discuss are available officially and for free in places like Bandcamp, Soundcloud, Youtube, etc., maybe worth embedding from those? Youtube and Soundcloud have embedded players and Bandcamp from what I posted here on the fediverse appears to have an embedded player too, though only for songs you can listen for free, as previously said. Also ITunes and Ototoy have samples of musics they sell, ITunes’ being 30s long and Ototoy’s being 45s long iirc.
