Hey folks...say, do any of you happen to have the thin, light brown leaflet about Ric Transonic amps from the '60s? There was an AMAZING B&W swirly graphic on the front of it, and I need a hi-res scan of it for a project.

Any help would be outta sight.

I can only guess that this catalog is not free of rights, and someone here is paying close attention to the distribution of all things owned by RIC ;-)

I had downloaded it and I'll send it to you - but please, personal use only, nothing commercial, ok?

Guys, I hope you don't mind if I borrow a few of your songs and record them myself. Oh, nothing commercial, I'll just give them away for free to anyone who asks. That's okay, right?

John Hall, I apologize of course for proposing this file. Please note it was not an accident if I made it public: I could have sent it to him without notice, without any condition. Or, sooner or later, Kenny would have found it, on eBay or elsewhere, and used it, again without notice.

As for your comparison (borrow my songs), I believe it is not really accurate. For this is exactly what I'm doing with my music: for example, just have a look at http://jzu.free.fr/dazibao.html for my older stuff. People who had the vinyls, people who saw us in concert 15 years ago are really happy with these MP3s because they can't find the CDs anymore. Yes, you can copy these songs, you can give them to your friends for personal use. That's okay. Right.

(Well, of course, you would have to be interested in a eighties French rock band singing in Arab :-)

So to me it's not the same. I understand RIC is a commercial company, and it's no use arguing over rights management. If you enforce a strict policy, we can only abide by this policy.
