Copyright question about music

Postby Troodon » Sat Jan 10, 2009 12:25 pm

Hi,
I'm building a game based on the year 2003 and for realism I'm going to add music from the year. I'm not going to sell this game or get money from it in anyway, so there shouldn't be copyright problems shouldn't there?

Technically, a company can request removal of any content from a public display that they own copyright to. This includes any images, sounds, or movie clips. Whether or not they would really depends on the circumstances.
If a ged game were posted here on the forum, its extremely unlikely that this would happen.
It's easier to be clever than it is to be kind.

most people only care if you try and make money off of something they made, so it should be ok.
No games to my name...
