DJ Setzer

While this post is a bit old at this point. I am going to post some correct information for those who may come across this piece. First thing you should know. I am a retired RL Dj of 20 years and have an advanced understanding of licensing and things that apply so BMI, ASCAP et cetera. Second, when you go to a brick and mortar store (Walmart in example) or when you pay for a unlimited service (Amazon, Spotify et cetera) or even when you buy a download from the same you are pay for a.... Private license. This means that the song or album you have purchased or streaming is for private individual use only and not for "Public performance". Public performance, what is it? When buy tracks that have Public performance licenses associated with them (you know when you have bought this type of track) these are licensed for Public Performance which additionally means you are allowed to make money from playing them to a public audience. But there is a catch... The catch. The venue in which you are playing also requires that it have a license with both ASCAP and BMI (they have the largest and most of the catalog) in which for you to play said music and for those around to have the...wait for it...right to hear that music. Having said all that. There are additional requirements and considerations to those that wish to stream music out to the net. Many of the above with respect to music being licensed for public performance still apply. But there are other rules and regulations. So for those asking the question...Is it legal. You've been given the broad strokes here. Which is to say, largely no. It's a good start to have music licensed for public performance. This is the technical answer for those who appreciate it. Many people have been RL Dj's and in other forms and have never know this to be a thing. But know this, the next time you stop into your local bar or club and someone plays a song from the jukebox...Those song are public performance and the owner has paid into ASCAP and BMI for you to have the right to hear those songs. Keep that in mind.

Amazing how nobody actually answered the question. The individual clearly stated they are not having any other issues with net connectivity no matter the application. It isn't until they start using SL that the problem exists. And so many of you just go on to quote LL on what they say they don't support. I too am having the same issue. I stream HD movies over my router directly to my TV while others in the home are doing pretty much the same thing at the same time. Bandwidth and my routers ability to handle it, IS NOT THE ISSUE. The issue is, the wireless adapter on my PC and only on the PC that is running SL reports limited connectivity after only a few short moments of running SL. I can run all the other 3D intensive games and aps I want, with no issues. The issue is clearly with SL, not my PC, not my bandwidth, not interference from other devices in the area, not my routers ability to handle the bandwidth or any number of the silly examples I have seen given to this issue. So who really wants to take a genuine stab at fixing the issue?
