Randolfe, all I can say is read any of the basic literature on copyright and media production. In Australia we use <URL: http://www.copyright.org.au/publications/infosheets.htm > and if look in the M you'll see music in film and multimedia, and student works. You'll note the only exemptions are for work that is out of copyright, or for research purposes. -- cheers Adrian Miles hypertext.RMIT <URL:http://hypertext.rmit.edu.au/vlog> ------------------------ Yahoo!
