direct qoute From WebJay *on online playlist pointer for bloggers* FAQ section:
Is it legal?[/b]Cautious answer: the music business is nothing if not trigger happy with lawsuits, but as far as we can tell, Webjay is thoroughly legal. Indeed, the idea of it was specifically crafted for both legality and common courtesy in a crazy environment. We try to go beyond the requirements of the law.Common sense answer: Yes! Webjay is not file sharing. It helps you find music like a search engine helps you to find web pages; it helps you share music in the same way that Blogger helps you create a weblog; it never stores or transmits music itself.
As far as we can tell? awesome!

    No it's a pretty stupid statement.

    I'm just saying it's posted there.

    Did you send them a Cease and Desist? Did they comply?
