Thank you for making that point. (I was thinking that. I was also thinking: "In general, how is the copyright holder even going to find out, let alone care?") There are any number of legal issues people are curious about that will probably never be adjudicated because nobody cares enough to pay for the legal costs -- and this seems like a classic. -- license-discuss archive is at http://crynwr.com/cgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi?3
