Whats the deal with having online media players on your own website?

I wouldn't be letting people download the music....just listen to it. And for some reason I thought that was legal.

No?

Oh, and if someone has a link to the actual law that allows or disallows it...that would be great.

I need a course on how to properly search Google.
It's grey because anything that you listen to is actually downloaded to your computer anyway, just a matter of whether or not you are aware of where it is being downloaded too. Online radio does have to pay royalties. But think of all the myspace pages with music on them. There's really nothing that can be done.
