Normally what a company does about redistribution of an otherwise free product is send a cease and desist order first. This has qorked to open dialog about fixing problems on a page before. Idon't remember what list it was on but last year someone on a blind related list went through the process with broadcast.com. In the end it was agreed that he could send all the links via email to friends, but not leave his page with the links bypassing the ads up for all to see. They also wanted to make sure he wasn't modifying them to skip the 30 second comercial proceeding the real stuff if memory serves correctly. Some companies won't worry about the publicity figuring that it won't be too bad. They may figure you will only get regional coverage and people forget things quickly anyway. -- Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk at 1tree.net ------------------ Seek simplicity -- and distrust it.
