Hi guys,
I have been reading about the various ways media is handled via drupal. I'm wondering, is there a method that would allow only registered users of my site to download or steam audio? I have a very popular comedy mp3 site and I woudl like visitors to register prior to downloading all the free goodies.
will the media manager do this?
or is there another option you can think of?
thanks.
Patrick

I'm very new here . . . as in still haven't even managed to get my site up! . . . but can't you just put them in a members only area using groups/permissions?

nothing to do with audio at all. just get your access control right and serve them like any other files, it seems to me. -aaron

Cool . . . now if only I can figure this one out (http://drupal.org/node/37840) I might get to actually set up my first Drupal install :)

well.. How do i make an area for only one of the groups? I mean, all the permissions for groups seem to be tied into modules only, and not created pages or blocks.

How do i create an area for donwloading files and then make it available for permissions?

thanks
