Subject: RE: Is this copyright infringement?
Great input and opinions -- thanks, and keep 'em coming.

I'm not averse to publicity, and firmly believe that folk music should be made widely available. I would like listeners to be able to buy a copy of the CD if they like what they hear, so that suggestion makes perfect sense. I have no desire to sue the fellow.

What about people being able to download the songs from YouTube? Doesn't that mean you can now obtain the whole CD, cover art, lyrics and liner notes included (more than you get by buying the thing)free from YouTube?

I'm a Yank, so don't know the BNP, but even I could sense that GoodFightLad might represent a political issue that I do not necessarily want my CD associated with. What's your opinion on free publicity from "facists"?
