No of course not, that's why I asked you if it would be appropriate for me to communicate with them. About recording their music and distributing it on SE, I actually already communicated with Youtube about it and they told me it's okay for *most* (I still need to ask though) as long as I dont make any money off of it and they have a program to give anything garnered through "Google ads" back to the artist. I dont do Google ads though and have no desire to make any money off of this, I just believe in sharing the beauty of art and science with all.
Also, I need to add that in my conversations with Youtube/Google customer service they told me that the "default music" that comes with SE has some copyright issues (but nothing too serious, the default music can be used in videos but can't be monetized....something I dont care about anyway.) I love supporting original musicians and other artists, I just will not under any circumstances support the corrupt RIAA/MPAA who have been harassing people with frivolous lawsuits and installing spyware/viruses/keyloggers on personal computers to track people (I think they finally stopped doing all this when they realized how angry people had gotten and saw their bottom line dropping- which is all they really care about anyway.) As if it isn't enough that governments use warrantless mass surveillance lol. I'd much rather send money to artists directly rather than go through these corrupt organizations which take 90% or more of earnings if you go through the usual channels. I was so glad to see Sony hacked a few years ago (just like the revelations about our government that came out via Snowden) and all their dirty little secrets revealed; Sony, Nestle and a few others have got to be among the most corrupt corporations on the planet.
