As far as I'm aware there's no Ruling in the book so to speak. At first I thought it wrong for covers, but as there seems to be less activity on BandAMP these days, I don't mind it at all, so long it has some originality to it.
The last time this topic was raised, I think the majority were in favor.
So Ampers, tell us your views, is it good, is it bad, can we make it more interesting, ban it ETC
Well Personally I love covering songs, but I like to keep them as close to the original as possible. Thats just what i like to do, and I think its cool when other people take the song in a whole different direction. As long as credit is giving when we post the covers, just note that you ARE covering it by "So-And-So" The Band, from their song "The song Name".
Covering songs is really fun, and as long as you do not take credit for the whole thing (i.e. writing the song, coming up with the idea, etc).
I see no problem with members who have good intentions uploading covers. They (myself included) just want to share how we just learned this song, and for people to see how we did on it. Not to take credit away from the original band and stuff like that.

Swordy be more specific..I'm assuming your not talking about covers(this has been addressed before and resolved).If Im understanding correctly your talking about taking credit for material or arrangements that are not all written by the bandamp member?
As far as Mod,I don't see why to drag them into this until there's more specifics into the who or what?So Im ok with them being invisible...I am most of the time too and so are many.

Mixes are not plagiarism, as long as the person mixing the song gives credit to the song or songs he/she has used.
Well if someone did a "re-mix" or changed up some arrangements in one of my songs, I would like to be notified that they are doing it, or something like that.
It is sort of a gray area

Totally wrong! You can't use parts of another song in your song without permission! Even if you give credit.
