Hello,
I'm thinking of creating an online radio program that would showcase
music by independent, self-produced musicians; but I have a couple of
legal questions I'd like to ask:

- How to protect myself against the possibility of someone sending me
copyrighted music, not belonging to them, but pretending it does? It
is obviously impossible to check that such or such song was not
actually recorded or written by someone else...

- Is there a standard contract enabling an artist to allow a
broadcaster to use their music free of charge (knowing in this case
that the artist, through the promotion, is very much the beneficary,
and knowing that the program itself is non-profit making)?


thank you

Guillaume.
