"...because they have done very little to promote songs other than the reprinting of books".

Just to put these things into perspective:

The whole of (possibly the world's) finest collection of folk material is substantially on line, a massive undertaking for a voluntary organisation.

The books are either new or substantially new with superb research and excellent writing. To say you think otherwise is nonsense.
