Shenandoah, You said: "I consider his mistreatment of OUR resource to be an act of cultural theft, pure and simple."

Since the DT is freely available, there is no cultural theft. Yeah you have the right to speak but why make a fool of your self?

Katlaughing has your solution Shenandoah, get yourself a copy of the DT and start your own site. Best of luck to you in singlehandedly protecting the integrity of folk music.
