Quote - There are plenty of free hosting sites, like my preferred, 4shared. This just cuts off people who in a lot of causes posted stuff trying to make a quick buck, and some of properties they did not own licenses to.
I read about one guy who would just repackage free stuff in his own name and upload it to build his catalog.
Guess this will slow down the feeding frenzy.
Yeah he was repackaging free images from another online Image hosting site and uploading them to ShareCG as Cyclorama backgrounds. The site admins ended up allowing it because the original owner would not or could not get around his own "Free to redistribute" clause. All the guy ended up having to do was add links back to the original owners site.
