How does this run on Graal?
Do I can make some music for my server wuthout to break copyrights?
I am just wondering because for example zodiac:
Players can make their own radio station and upload their music.

or Era:
On firday the 13th I could hear Michael Jackson's(sry if its written wront) Thriller.

So how does this work with copyrights?

play("http://www.song.url/filename.mp3");

It's called streaming, they don't upload anything to the Graal file browser/FTP.

I more want to know about the rights...
isnt it illegal to "show" music on internet to everyone?

depending on the website you're using to host the mp3s, if what you're uploading breaks the agreement (such as not uploading copywritten material) the most that will happen is the file will get deleted or your account on the website will be suspended. nothing further than that.

Seconded.

Copyright is made to protect an artist's work. As a musician, I can rightfully say that it would be one huge pain in the bum to produce music that anyone could do whatever they want with.

I wouldn't make any money.

(NOT THAT IT'S A STABLE PROFESSION IN THE FIRST PLACE ;PP)

No... I mean the copyright blabla @ Graal.

If I buy a server, I should be allowed to upload anything I want and if anybody sues Graal or something I just should be the one that has to stay tall and answer.

I mean c'mon... who'd sue Graal because of some music, wtf?

You'd be surprise.

See, the thing is, you don't buy servers - you rent them.
