i did what i thought was right and i still had a nasty problem with a nasty woman on my last cd. i had talked with a family member, i had paid for the license, and she came after me threatening lawyers etc. i guess she was the official contact and not her nephew. that was not easily ascertained nor did he tell me that. go through an agency if you can. fortunately i had only run off 50 copies with no case, so it was not terribly expensive. but i missed passing them out and selling them at fisher poets last year and had to throw the whole batch away. she was a fiend from hell. i do not think she had a legal leg to stand on though because this was done through the agency.
