Hello All
I just added a new rule to the web server:
If the referer is not from xltronic.com, the server will redirect to a warning message.
Translation from geek lingo: if you put media files URL into another website/forum/board etc., our system will not let it download.
Please let me know if it causes any problems, or anything else is broken from now.
THanks for the understanding.

Hotlinking especially to a site like xltronic with all the media files would end up costing phobia et al. an absolute fortune.

Yes, it's causing problems. I can't download unless my firewall is disabled, and then it's only a 1 on 20 chace that it works. The rest of the time it downloads a "no hotlinking!" jpg. And I can't "save as" I have to just click it and let it play

This has scuppered my plans for an xltronic.co.uk rip off site. I was just going to mirror the site. Now I shall have to think again.

Oh yeah I see it is a bit tough.
I will maybe find out how to modify the rule, so it will let download stuff, it is not linked from another site, but will work if you just pass it to a download accelerator, or wget, etc.

The original idea was that you could not even right click and listen... I don't know how it's still possible.
