How to Put Music on IMVU Profiles
The IMVU social networking website allows you to create your own virtual world. Create rooms on your IMVU profile to mingle with others or join public rooms that already exists. IMVU has a feature that allows you to add music to your profile. However, due to music industry licensing regulations, the IMVU music can only be played in rooms where two or more people are gathered. If you want to play music outside of these rooms, it is necessary to use third party resources.
