Still i believe, that it can be OK to use such small pieces of a recording do something new and maybe incredible and i would not easily stand to miss great tracks made by artists using such material maybe because they lack the resources to record the needed sound themselfs. Furthermore, if someone got the class to remember and to mention the original recording of wich his track is build upon, he/she should have the privilege to do so whithout express permission. Plus: J.M. Ringheim increased the glory of Rick James by using/mentioning his work to do something new, that is indeed honorable and should not be lessened by being too stern about licensing. best regards Z -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFE5KiE1Aecwva1SWMRAtgHAJ4i8CyQhvm1BXXJQvYqNdOodM8edACcDYuU xRKorf2sa+lHV7EI0QdbBQs= =Di6r -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
