Recent posts in the Sunshine Soundtrack board contain direct-links to music snippets or mixes from the film. As Fox has yet to make the music publicly, commercially, and legally available, the forum admins and moderators here are requesting for these links to be removed (if they are not already) and any future posts with links will be subject to moderation.
Furthermore, there are three main points that we wish to address regarding this issue:
Furthermore, there are three main points that we wish to address regarding this issue:
We do not know your sources and their legitimacy. There are three ways that a person can acquire access to the soundtrack: (1) inside sources who provide credible yet confidential copies; (2) illegal download sites like bittorrent; or (3) officially released (and legitimately paid) DVD rip.Another note: 'conspiracy' is too strong of a term to use. If the soundtrack is to be made available, we will all have access to it soon. We just have to be patient. Thank you for your time.
(1) If you indeed had proper access to the music files, there is a certain degree of respect that must be paid for the copyright concerns of Fox, Underworld, and John Murphy. If the files originate from a legitimate source on the Internet, we ask that you identify them and tell us where to find them as opposed to providing a direct-link (one of few forum rules that I consistently see broken).
(2) If you are linking to files available from download sites like bittorrent, we could be looking at serious legal issues. Please keep in mind that the actual writer of the official production blog, SunshineDNA, is a frequent poster and devoted member on this fan forum. The charges are real.
(3) If you legitimately paid for the DVD, we advise you to be considerate of copyright laws at least until the soundtrack is, like I mentioned earlier, made publicly, commercially, and legally available. Direct-linking is prohibited (see: Forum Rules).
