The website says I "should" register or login before downloading or playing the file...
But it won't play it without me registering.
Interesting use of the word "should".

I get the same thing. I don’t know if I can download or not because I never download files like this.
Something like Soundcloud is free and doesn’t require DL to play files. May be worth considering.

No, I can't play or download it.
On the download page, I get the error "You should Sign Up or Login to download this file".
There's a graphic on the right hand side that says "Check 4Sync at cnet.com" that, when clicked, sends me the file 4Sync-1.054m.exe.
In any event, no downloads without signing up.

I logged out of 4 shared and tried the link. Works fine for me with Firefox.

I got the same message -- requires downloading.
I recommend SoundCloud.com also.

I'm using FireFox.
Clicking the link brings me to a page with an image of a speaker with the text "mp3" and a > (play) icon.
Clicking the image pops up a JavaScript window with the header You should log in to preview his file. Sign up for free if you don't have an account yet.
Clicking the Download Now brings me to the You should Sign Up or Login to download this file page, which I've already described.

When I say that's the end of them I mean it. I deleted the account.I'm not going to bother anyway. They all have strict rules about CR material and I don't write.

I've tried to post my own compositions to Facebook and it just says I'm on someone's copywrite. You can't even fool it by finding a name and posting it as that.
I wonder if you go into the data file, change stuff to say Bach, put Bach in the title, if it plays there. I doubt it.
I need to get back at my own website. Then I get too tired and end up back in the sack. Pfffttt.

Alyn,
You're still safe in Boogaloo.
Actually, it was just about getting an MP3 to play. No need for alarm.

The site is perfectly safe & legit. It's "4Shared" a file sharing cloud but like most of the free sites they eventually change things to get you to sign up for a better paid account.I've been using them for a couple of years.

John,
A very similar thing happened with yours or someone else's 4shared post back over a year ago. I swore off clicking on anything 4shared way long ago due to the malware that came along with visiting the site.
I'm not so sure that they are safe and legit. There's something about their site that allows malware to get attached to the site or in frames, etc. that keeps me at a far distance.

4shared is one of the biggest "holders" of pirate software!

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
