Would this violate Simfile rules?
ok, i was thinking of doing a chemical brothers song or some other big
electronica artists. Like what would i have to do to get it on FFR, legally or without violating copy-right protection laws. Like do i have to cut it, or can i play the entire song in my simfile? |

You simply need the artist's permission to have the song in the game.
Then your file has to be submitted to the judges for it's quality. |

You also can't post it in the simfile database, or send it to anybody besides a judge because then it'll be void.

If we don't have permission from the artist to use his/her songs in FFR we can't use any part of them. When it comes to breaking copyright it's better to be conservative.

Re: Would this violate Simfile rules?
If I remember, you can use up to 30 seconds of a song which is under copyright without it being judge illegal (without asking the author's permission) but hey who wants to listen to only 30 seconds of a song xD

Oh yes.
Or just make a bunch of sims for 30-second-long songs.

I'm pretty sure I could scratch and sniff about 8 songs into one insane one. =D Just would need someone to step it.
