Ask HN: How does music licensing work?

I have an idea for a new project that would allow users to listen to radio-style broadcasts online. I am at a loss on how to go about paying for a license to make such a site legal. Does anyone know of a service that allows streaming of music legally to third-parties? It would be desirable to both pay for and source music through the same platform.

For me if the text hadn't been copied verbatim then I would be inclined to agree with your points.

It still supports USB it just adds NFC, so you can still use it on your desktop/laptop - https://www.yubico.com/products/yubikey-hardware/yubikey-neo...

You can get NFC enabled keys to use with any device without USB that supports NFC

Using client-side script to restrict access is a big no from a security stand point. From what I have read this library is intended to interact with third party services rather than for access. E.g. pulling in photos, contacts etc

One of the nicest I have tried so far. Unobtrusive and easy to use. I have put the keystore on an encrypted USB which solves nearly all my problems.

One question, I can't find what the trial is. Is it time based?

Portability is one of my main concerns as I use a variety of platforms e.g. Linux at home, Windows at work and Android on the go. I would also be a little hesitant to trust a hosted solution. SuperGenPass (www.supergenpass.com) seemed like a nice solution but I am concerned about what happens when I need to change password.

Does Yubikey have a solution for Android? They seem right up my street.

I was put off a bit by the requirement of Mono for Linux but I see there is a port called KeePassX. This might be a nice compromise.
This is my first backing, I have been looking for something to back for a while but this is the first that has tempted me.
