Hi,
My Friend is a Dj. Not a Professional but he mixes very good
He has his own mixing of over 20gb.
But he is afraid to distribute them among friends as he feels that others can just change the artist name and distribute as if they made it

So can u guyz suggest a software which will not allow anyone to change the properties of song like
Artist , genre, and all

You can firstly get a CreativeCommons license. (Google it)

First apply for a creative commons license
*creativecommons.org/
I dont know about protecting uploaded music. Instead, why dont you look for some music streaming sites (a site like youtube but only for music) instead of putting it up for download?

none of the above ready my pot carefully

firstly it is possible to right click and change the things over there
thats wat my friend does not want

My firend does not wanna upload or sumthing.
He wants to play in parties and give away to his friends for free

But he demands that it should hav his name that cannot be REMOVED or Editted

He dont want a liscence nor he wants to write copyrighted and all

in media player on bottom right the artist name continously moves around when the song is played

He just wants his name there IN SUCH A AY THAT NO ONE CAN REMOVE OR EDIT IT

hope u all got me now

You mean edit the tags to show his name as artist, his own album art, etc.?
Try this then on the songs that he has come up with.

But he is not the artist right? If I understood the post correctly he only mixes the music?

any music that I've downloaded allows me to change the properties, none has prevented me from doing so. Guess you you are talking about DRM

@ thewisecarb
i tried ur soft. but it is easily editable by right clicking on the song >> summary then edit

@ deepakvrao
Yes he mixes music but length of music is 55 to 60 mins non stop
So if u ever get a dj track check it in windows media player u will c dj name in artist coloumn and that is not edittable ( In Original Cd`s )

@ Coolbuddy
Yes i know it allows to change properties that wats my friend does not want
I m not talking about DRM


Making my self clear:
The songs will not be sold.
Free for use
But Dj demands atleast his name on it for publicity
He does not want liscense and all or copyright

Just a software ( if any ) with which he can write his name in the artist coloumn and his name is unedittable

I hope i m clear now

Pl. dont suggest for liscense and copyright things and stuff

This is one method but many can bypass this

after changing the details of song. right click then tick read only then apply
after that no one can change details

but if someone removes tick from the read only option then everything is open again to get editted
