When sharing or streaming content online, it's important to respect the intellectual property rights of the creators. On websites like YouTube and Soundcloud, there are often ways to check if a song is protected by copyright and, if so, to obtain permission before uploading it. Additionally, downloading copyrighted materials without permission is prohibited and may result in legal liability for the violator. It's always best to check the website’s terms of service and respect an artist’s rights as established in the Copyright Act. If using downloaded music or videos for your own use is still a concern, look into Creative Commons licensed content – this type of content is free from certain restrictive regulations which would typically protect artists with regards to reproduction works.

It is important to respect the rights of content owners when sharing or streaming content online. By using apps or websites that enable you to legally access music, movies, and other types of content, you can avoid copyright infringement. If you download something from the internet without permission from the copyright owner, it is a violation of the copyright owner’s exclusive rights under the Copyright Act. Furthermore, it is illegal to produce and distribute unauthorized copies of materials that are protected by copyright law. Therefore, do not reproduce, distribute or publicize any materials without written permission from the copyright owner unless an exception applies.
