I agree, if they are able to 'listen' or stream the music from his
server, there is nothing stopping them from dumping the stream to a .wav
file and then encoding to mp3.  This is an exercise in futility :)

Peter,

Unfortunately, in apache (and any webserver), accessing _is_
downloading. Along the same lines it's impossible to prevent people to
view a page and not see the source code, you really can't protect your
files.
