Is grooveshark.com Safe?

Grooveshark in some ways is maybe a tad less awful than the other online radio sites- but it still has the same basic problems: It's privacy policy is better than it's competitors IF users find the opt-out option. If you don't use that it is the usual slaughterhouse. The royalty rates paid to musicians are a disgrace. It's interface isn't very attractive and it sure is clunky.

This is a music sharing platform where users can upload any music.  The site does have to stay within copyright so when a user uploads copyright material it maybe taken down. The site also has a pop-up that asks you "Are you sure you want to leave" when trying to leave the site.

This page has "do you want to leave" dialog, that's a poor practice usually from sites that want to harm your computer, it's telling you that you are too dumb to know if you want to leave or not. When I clicked "leave" it loaded a page that tried to install malware or viruses.

Great music streaming website with plenty of music to stream. It has ads that can be annoying at times but that's what pays for the content and the website itself. Legally, you can pay $9/month or $90/year (outright cost) for a subscription to Grooveshark VIP with some more features to the site and it's ad-free too.

Удобный интерфейс, система создания плейлистов и добавления композиций в них. Из минусов – поскольку треки загружают сами пользователи, а не исполнители: 1. Они могут быть удалены по требованию правообладателя; 2. Названия треков зачастую некорректны, что плохо отражается на скробблинге last.fm. Лично я добавляю композиции в плейлисты только после проверки корректности названий в авторитетном источнике. Несмотря на это, лично для меня Grooveshark – самый удобный музыкальный сервис, доступный в России и поддерживающий скробблинг.
