Anti-leech
I run an online community for Music Production etc. Users have severe problems with leeching files. Is there a way to Anti-leech links and attachments?

No. There is no anti-leech system that works and there will never be one.
As long as it is somehow possible to download files it will be possible to leech, the only 100% solution would be not to offer downloads. |

There was one on vB2 and it worked 200%.
But it's not for free, sure it is not ... |

It would require some work and not to mention database storage, but if you're really concerned with the situation then I would advise it because although it would require more database storage to keep a log of who downloaded the files you would save your site the bandwidth of downloding the music, etc. Just some of my opinions.

Here's a good solution for solving a leeching problem. Offer the files as attachments and require a membership to be able to download the attachment. I had a problem with people leeching my files, then I required they must download it in form of a zip file, and it cut my bandwidth usage in half.

or make them post a certain amount of time, be registered a certain amount of days, or do something to be able to access the attachments

All you mentioned will not really help - and
yes, I know the programmer of the vBinegrated anti-leech script. |
