I think what you keep failing to understand, John, is that your issue WITH LAN is over .... your issue WITH THE COMMUNITY as to how it ended is NOT. You can't wash away one with the other, and you cant pretend they are the same and expect the community to buy it. Saying "the reason we didn't have to pay Lan what he asked after we stole his stuff is private" isn't going to relieve concerns by content producers as to if PodTech respects the true ownership of the content. Why would we as content producers ever choose to trust such a company with our work ever again? Your issue with Lan may be over, but your issue with the community is not ... and your constant refusal to understand the difference between the two is not painting PodTech in the best of lights. If you want the issue with the community to be over, you're going to have to a) stop confusing the two and b) talk to the community about the issue that remains. Moving discussions off list and outside the view of the community isn't going to help you do that. "trust me, you don't know the whole story" sounds like a load of crap to me ... either Lan owned the image or he didn't. You've acknowledged that he did. And happily for you Lan has let you off the hook .... but PodTech has yet to address THE COMMUNITY as to why it felt it didn't have to pay Lan what he asked even after he negotiated down from his first invoice. - Dave -- http://www.DavidMeade.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
