would like to have users listen to audio and view video without the option to download.
That's interesting! Have just been deciding which way to go for a collaborative teamwork in our company (be that: OneDrive, Google Docs or DropBox) . Because we use SKYPE I liked the neat integration of OneDrive with Skype messaging. However my main concern is training the staff to understand the difference between using Excel online or downloading for use on DeskTop Excel. I can see lots of issues here with staff getting confused about what they have clicked and finding themselves editing on desktop and not real-time online. Obviously the data protection and data security issues are a real concern too, particularly as they might end up by sharing sensitive information by accident with someone else. By email our Excel spreadsheets would normally be protected with a password. I am assuming here that if they download an Excel file from OneDrive that password protection is not an option. That currently makes email a securer option than OneDrive! Hope to hear more from Microsoft about the prevention of further sharing and downloading of files. In the meantime we will pilot OneDrive in a small way within our company.
Agreed, we should be able to enable/disable downloads.
Even shares that allow editing should allow downloads to be disabled. You may have someone helping you with something but not want them to make a copy of it for their own use.
Totally agree with this suggestion. A view link should be read-only; please upgrade to grant the ability to share files and disable download.
Absolutely this option should be available. I am currently switching a batch of files off of OneDrive to GoogleDrive exclusively for this reason. This will definitely mean I use this whole MS platform less.
Hope this is incentive for OneDrive!
I agree- Judy VIEW ONLY should be just that.
I agree - prevent download of view only file!
é o que eu sempre desejei, não entendo o porque de ainda ter essa opção, sem logica esse botão fixo.
Yea, it's a good idea!
Totally agree with this suggestion. A view link should be read-only and all other cloud services (Google Drive, Box.com, etc..) are offering the option to disable download direct download on shared links. A quick search on this issue opens up hundreds of results with people asking for the same feature.
Please add this feature as it will just enhance the power of OneDrive.
