If someone post a song on here is it "free game"?

That depends on if you think people should have respect. I always ask first before I download someone elses song.

Copyright law is fairly simple and clear. The moment you write a song or musical composition of any kind, you OWN it. Period. You do not have to register any work with the copyright office for it to be protected by law, but if you plan to exercise your rights as owner of the work if somebody else rips it off, you'd be better off registering it before you put it out there, since it's much easier to prove you own it if you do. In fact, no publisher will touch your work if you don't.
Paragraph 3. "By posting Content to any public area of BandMix.com, you automatically grant, and you represent and warrant that you have the right to grant, to BandMix.com an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, fully paid, worldwide license to use, copy, perform, display, and distribute such information and content and to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works, such information and content, and to grant and authorize sublicenses of the foregoing."
That paragraph essentially means you are giving Bandmix the right to post and allow others to play your music, through your profile. It's basically nothing more than BM covering their own arse if you ever decide to say you didn't understand that your music would be available to the public to play.
