  • You feel better if you just give some change to whomever, even if your favorite artists get didly squat… 🙄

    mp3va.com has been listed in U.S. Trade Representative annual reports as being unauthorized to sell music. Legal experts have explicitly stated that while MP3VA claims to operate legally under Ukrainian copyright laws, “it is not legal for them to sell this music in the United States”.

    The site operates from Ukraine with Russian IP addresses, and security analysis tools give it an “extremely low” trust score. One security review describes it as "a pirate website from Russia engaged in the selling of digital downloads without licensing or distribution agreements from record labels.

    Here are my Filen testing notes from a couple of months ago. It’s a habit of mine so I don’t forget why I discarded some options.

    • It’s impossible to upload anything through the Win app. You can only set up sync folders where you need to place files. Through the web app, however, you can upload both folders and files.
    • The desktop app disappears as soon as you switch to another app, and you have to launch it again by clicking on the shortcut.
    • You can’t access data in the cloud via a virtual drive or anything similar.
    • In short, it’s unusable for my use case.

    Edit: Be aware that according to Matt@lemdro.id, the above issues have been rectified in the meantime, so you should give it a go before deciding.
