But every author uses samples from copyrighted sources!!!

[SimonePiervergili]

One thing is also true, is that even the other authors have soundfonts containing samples from other soundfonts and VST plugins, I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE!!!

It's the truth, I saw many authors doing that, I'm not the only one I did! Even Arachno SoundFont's author used samples from digital keyboards as well, like Korg X5DR.

You should be good then; I believe this same defense was found valid in the  infamous United States v. Arachno ruling.

Was it really necessary to start an entire new thread about this

I'd say that they need to think before creating another thread in general:

 

-What's your favorite drink?

-What's your favorite food?

-What's your favorite genre of music?

-Soundfont containing copywrite-violating data v1

-Soundfont containing copywrite-violating data v2

 

Even their replies are mostly irrelevant. In the music thread, I wrote that I like 1970's prog. They replied with what are apparently Hannah Montana lyrics. In the v1 Soundfont thread, someone left feedback, and they simply replied with "good", followed by another post that said "Do you have a Youtube channel? I do".

Just because someone else does something, it doesn't mean you should do it.

 

And please don't start another thread to argue a point from another thread that hasn't even been locked.
