This appears to be a screen shot of copyright material. Diannaa (talk) 00:40, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright material? I don't think so. First of all, the media player in the screenshot is an open source software and there are no copyrights.
Why would you want the screenshot to be removed? Has anyone complained about the picture being here? If the screenshot is of copyright material then all the screenshots of the MPC player versions should be removed.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Europa76 (talk • contribs) 09:17, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know what's the copyright status of the software, but it is very uncommon for software to be available under {{Cc-by-sa-3.0}}. Most open source licences require you to refer to the correct open source licence in some way, which doesn't seem to be the case here. Unless a valid copyright tag is added, the file is effectively a copyright violation even if the software is open source software. --Stefan4 (talk) 10:09, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well, screenshots of software should be licensed under GPL (GNU General Public License). But I don't know if softwares from sourceforge.net are licensed under GPL or any free software license. --Pokéfan95 (talk) 10:37, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Kept: MPC is licensed under GPL, file license changed accordingly. P 1 9 9   12:53, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
