You would think they could filter out this invasion but it seem as soon as a fix is found another way around it pops up

That's too bad they do that stuff.. I have had a lot of trouble going into WildTangent games they come in screaming at you on some of the games and that is on the front of Microsoft page. I will not go there again.

Re: soundcloud is not even sacred any more

Same thing happened to me tonight (Thurs) with YT (I know: "Big News, Bill",) but let me explain...... tonight I was listening to a song by The Candymen, a group known to us 60's groups because they were from Rome. GA., not too far from Carrollton, where we live. As I was writing my comment, all of a sudden a song began by different group (Hip-Hop) and I absolutely could NOT get away from it! It was like one of those porn sites which (I am told) have those continuous pop-ups. Only it took over the WHOLE screen and gave me know options except to hear more of this crap or share it.

Moral: Be careful on YouTube. (I guess)

Re: soundcloud is not even sacred any more

This may be off the thread a bit, but have any of you who have had the fortune to be able to attend some or most of the Chordie gatherings considered housing a "warehouse" if you will to which USB's which us members may generate containing our own, or others, recordings which could be accessed by our members to hear our efforts with music. I know that the Songwriting thread would benefit from such a repository. ASCAPing our own songs wouldn't be effected as it remains really the only way we musicians can protect our work. But for those who would like to promote our own songs, or even participate in "Song Of The Month" - like stuff it could be fun. The shear volume of USB physical storage would likely be more than anyone, especially me, could fathom. It is the way that NETFLIX works, and I haven't got a clue where they warehouse or how they operate. Our membership base is probably too voluminous to approach the thought. I just thought I'd dream a little...
