Sadly, digital (i.e. e-mail) debate does NOT fall under "Marquis Of Queensbury"
(nor any other noble, with the possible exception of Lord Black of Crossharbour,
who is likely to wind up not only sans title, but to be an actual "man without
a country...!," if events continue along their apparent path...!) rules!

Further, the principals in this disagreement appear to be arguing much in
the manner of the fabled "blind men who felt an elephant" sort of debate!
In most cases, the counter-arguments have SFA to do with the original
proposals. However, this is to be expected, since the "sound recording
industry" was ill-prepared for the digitalization of their product, nor
the resultant near-infinite reproducability which resulted therefrom!

Meanwhile, I'm "fat and happy" (sort of, in both cases, anyway...) sitting
here with some 50,000 (+/-) sound recordings, about 99% of which fall under
"public domain" with respect to copyright according to existing Canadian law!
(so far, anyway...!)
