Why 4Shared is different

4Shared is a file sharing site that is very different from most others. The service has a .com URL which makes it a little more legitimate than the illegal .me or .ru sites of today. Above is an image of the companies iPhone application's icon on which you can add downloads to a registered account cue. You can also link the account to your Facebook in order to share the fact that you have just downloaded an artists song. The concept of Creative Commons Copyrighting and relies on the artists obligation to attribute the work to the original artist. 4Shared certainly plays into this by attributing downloads to original artists automatically (if allowed).
