I am trying to use Music collection only for streaming (no download), by song hosted in amazon S3. So far i was able to stream music by putting the S3 link.
But when i see the source code for the page, i can see the entire link which is public: https://s3.amazonaws.com/dummyuser/songs/me0001_jolojkhela/aroho.mp3

how to avoid this? or what is the actual/right way of using. i am new in both music collection and amazon.
I know there are some way to make the S3 private and make a connection through passkey. But do not know how.
Is there a simple plugin? or step by step guide?

    This is the right way to use it actually... the player needs to be able to "reach" the song, therefore it needs the direct (public) plugin.

    But that gives the user to download songs just by checking the amazon URL, because i am not allowing the user to download from this site, but If i make public in amazon, with the direct link anyone can download the song, not only that they can download entire folder from S3. That is a security issue.

      yes I understand, but the only way for the song to be reachable by jwplayer (using the normal HTTP mode) is that the URL is open. The only possible alternative to this would be to use the RTMP protocol, if you can enable it on Amazon S3. in this case you would be using RTMP addresses instead of HTTP address.
