Was it?
LSI has _NOT_ opted to publicly post what they privately E-mailed to Todd on
this issue. So, we are into the land of speculation as to if LSI considered it
proprietary.

_big_ paintbrush here Lar.
What about:hmm, my organ albums? (Irvine's 91 key...fairground organs) They
are out of copywrite, and I _know_ I have been offered outragous amounts of
money for them. Would it be wrong if I posted them on Napster and someone used
them? No, because they are public domain now. Same for say Bach, or any of a
large volume of work. Not everywere has a 125+ year copywrite.
(in fact, from what I understand, Napster would be perfectly legal if based in
Canada.)
