"Allow Downloads" could be a checkbox option on upload
I can totally understand in an abstract way why this might be a desired feature. Unfortunately, even with such an option, downloading from the player is literally a keypress+rightclick away if you know a small something about browsers, so I can also understand why the dev wouldn't want to implement such a disable feature when it doesn't really stop anybody in a significant capacity and might advertise to some users a false sense of security that isn't there.
I think it's a sad thing for the community if people decide not to post because they want things to feel more private, but the reality of posting music on the internet is that it's pretty hard to have subsequent control over distribution. If we want to continue posting to the internet in general, I feel that it's a reality that we all need to find some peace with.
I'm not sure what your exact concern is regarding the ability to download (although maybe I missed it in reading your post), but perhaps if you explain a bit more the community can brainstorm an idea about how you might be able to address it in a more meaningful way than asking someone to implement a cosmetic fix.
Is this a 24-hour link? I will be better about trying to check back tonight. The struggle bus is real. Sorry again.
. Can an admin give me a link to upload again? Thanks!
