I agree 100%. We used to have a side-by-side explanatory version but it might have gotten unlinked somewhere when we moved the location of the Terms of Use. The community team will get on this...

I have posted a song I did in SPlat on BandLab:

I just checked you out on Bandlab, trying to get a feel for the site to see how and what is going on there.
 I tried leaving a response but as soon as I hit the "enter key" to start a new paragraph it automatically posted.
I'm not sure how things works there on Bandlab, but from what I see so far (through the ears and eyes of an 18+ year collaboration veteran and Citizen of ACIDplanet), Bandlab might just be what we all hoped and wished AP would grow into one day.
 Unfortunately the new owners of Sony Creative Software are seemingly trying to kill off Sony Creative Software by seriously neglecting and ignoring website maintenance.
 Yeah I know that sounds crazy or paranoid, but I eventually threw my hands up and gave up trying to find out how much and upgrade for the latest version of Vegas Pro would cost, never mind getting a link to even download it,
and the very few Windows based web browsers only, that even allow streaming music from ACIDplanet warn everyone it's a DANGEROUS WEBSITE to stay away from it and enter at your own risk.
 
Over the years I've met and still network and collaborate with dozens of artists from all over the world who I believe will be very happy and interested in a website based on collaboration.
 
 And so Peter.......... Is there a way to download a multi track version of your song post for collaboration for remixing and or adding or replacing, and or working on existing vocals to get the party started?

Well done.

Its the same terms you agree to any other hosting site.
It doesn't mean Bandlab is going to steal your music it simply means they "possibly" might use it for promotional services.
Anyone else here against having your music shown to 1000's of people ?
It may be the one thing that gives your music a chance, unless of course you have a better option.
 
FYI- Read the terms for Soundcloud. No difference.

Hey Paulo, promidi,

Just to clarify this point quickly - these T&Cs are purely to allow BandLab as a service to actually function - i.e. we need a license for BandLab as a service to playback your own song to you, or anyone else you share it with. If you read any other social platform's T&Cs, like SoundCloud, Facebook etc - you'll find exactly the same thing.
 
I absolutely agree it could be clearer as to its intentions, and the point is taken - we will be working with our legal team to ensure it is not misleading and looking like we are trying to grab other people's rights - this is something we fundamentally don't believe in :-)
 
 

Thank you for the clarification.

I also joined, very quick way of putting out material. 
 
Here's my sketches so fare ...

I think I like the Iphone app the most ... it seems geared towards a "acoustic" setup.

Yeah, some people overthink the "somebody might steal my song thing". If you are super concerned, remember that traditional copyright steps still exist and are now easier being that it's digital submission and you can cover a bunch of songs in one filing (30 bucks or so) .

Yeah, I was one that got paranoid before thinking it through. My stuff has been copyrighted. I don't know what I was thinking.... Getting ready to put some songs up on Bandlab again.

Have not yet gone to Bandlab, yet.  Never a fan of giving away any rights to my music (such as HitRecordJoe, etc.), but I'll give it a look.
 
I do want to shout out to a Reddit site /r/bedroombands  
 
It's a low stress collaborative place.  Also on Reddit there's MITM (r/MusicInTheMaking).
 
My preference so far is /r/bedroombands (mainly due to the responsiveness of the musicians and the site mod is cool.) again, super low key

Giving rights to play, share, and collaborate with your music is NOT giving away copyrights license.
 It's increased exposure.
 The only person who can rip your profits off is yourself by not properly publishing your music with the proper digital rights registration assigning "Bar Codes" for your albums and "Media Catalog Number" for your songs, and copyright management.
 There are many very inexpensive and reputable services available that will properly register, track, and collect all monies paid, including streaming you don't even know existed and even distribute your music all across the internet and retail outlets with a surprisingly low investment on your part. All of the services can be found with a little research starting now a simple Google search.
  With a little research, a lot of work mixed evenly with creativity directed in the right places, you can even learn how to make money giving your music away uploading to YouTube.
