I need a TOS for SHOUTservers. We host SHOUTcast servers.
If anyone can write me a TOS or find one on the internet I will rep.

Write one yourself, then you know what it all means.

Also include a line that says: YOURHOST can't be held responsible for any legal consequences of your shoutcast stream.

So if people stream music without permission and for some freak reason the record labels find them out, your not responsible for their actions.

Thank's for that + rep.
I don't want to write one myself because I don't know all the things to include.
