Kenpool Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I would love if we could get a radio station dedicated to the works of the amazing Richard Cheese. A fabulous musician and comedian who swingifes Pop, Rock, and Rap songs. Id say they are pretty lore friendly, seeing as Cheese does the songs in the style of a big swing band. Which were common in Vegas. Example of his work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opnjIcd4L8M&feature=related I dont have any idea for what the name of the station would be, though. But Id love for this to be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuteman308 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) 1. You violate copyright2. You wanna get others to do the same. Better do it yourself. Edited August 5, 2012 by Minuteman308 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenpool Posted August 5, 2012 Author Share Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) Seeing as I see a bunch of radio station mods on the nexus already that violate copyright. I didnt really think that was a problem. Im violating copyright? How? If anything, the uploader of the video has. I already have bought his track downloads from his website. So Id say that Im in perfect right of listening to them. Edited August 5, 2012 by Kenpool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
se7enraven Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 You did say "we" not "you" regarding a radio station request. You cannot legally distribute music you "licensed" for personal use, same as most software. There are tutorials that explain at great length how to make custom radio stations. You could legally distribute a mod (.esp/.esm file) which "references" Richard Cheese music files in the Geck, but not the actual music files themselves. Minuteman308 is correct in saying it is illegal. It will also get you or anyone who does distribute copyrighted music banned. BTW, I'm a big Richard Cheese fan also and in theory the mod would rock-Peace! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

se7enraven Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Here's an example: Let's say you have 5 songs you want for this station. You would create a folder and place the 5 songs in (named RichCheese1, RichCheese2, RichCheese3, etc). You would then set up the Geck to use these songs for your station. When the mod is released, you can explain in it's readme that RichCheese1=closer, RichCheese2=Stronger, etc. You would then package up your mod (minus the actual song files, to include them would be illegal) and release it. It would be the responsibility of the end user to legally obtain, convert and properly install the sound files in said location. It would save someone the time of actually having to do the Geck work, but you could not legally distribute the songs themselves. It's probably not what you want to hear, but it is the only legal way to make the mod. Peace! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
