Mod suggestions for music forums?

Does anyone have any suggestions for mods to add to my music forum here:
http://punkreport.com/boards

I DONT want to add something that allows them to upload music or anything though.

Otherwise I'm open to other suggestions.

I know that you dont want users to be able to upload music and what not, but have you considered doing it yourself and letting them listen to and rate it? - http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=102555

It's a great Review System...it's really made to control articles, tutorials, and what not, but I'm sure that it could be modified to allow for cd reviews...stuff like that.

hmmm well I have reviews on the main site.

And I'm worried about legality issues with using the jukebox.

Right, you might want to look at that. As far as I know, I dont think that you can get in trouble unless you actually distribute the music, but do not take my word for it.

I am just under the impression that you are fine if you let them listen but not download - but again, this is pretty much an assumption of mine. It's definitely something that you would need to research a lot. You would have to get that music from somewhere - and I am going to assume that the only legal way to do so is to either buy the cd yourself or download the songs from a valid program (iTunes, Rhapsody, etc.)

As far as your review system - it doesn't look bad, but could use improvement. The GARS system I linked you to really is great, although not free. I'm sure there are free scripts out there that you could use on the front page - not in the forums though.

I admit the review system could use some work.
I really just need to put the time and effort to put more information on every page. Which I'll probably be doing with the new design.
