Hi, so to keep this hsort I have one simple question as followed,

 

Is it legal to start an free internet radio using spotify as an music library?

 

I can´t get my head around this question. I just had an idea, that I could start a internet radio station and becuase spotify has all the music you can ask for it would be an easy way. But I´m not talking about just streaming music, I´m talking about playing a few songs and then chat a little bit and then play som more song, pretty much normal radio station style, Then I begun thinking is this even legal, I mean your not allowed to upload any copyrated material on any website, if you not have premission. What about streaming. It´s live so the can really claim I´m uploading anything but is this really okay?? Any help is much aprritiated, I just thought this was a fun project.

I might not be much help at all, but I know that if you plan on making a profit on this, it's very illegal.  But it seems like you're just doing it for fun, which may be help to you.  I'm not sure, it might still be illegal.

Thanks for the reply but I think this is going to be an dead idea. I did some research and apperently you are not alloved to use spotifys music in public without paying the rights owner. So I guess it´s still possible but I could get caught and then they will probarly delete my station anyway.It´s sad thought could have been a fun thing to do.
