No commercial gain may be sought by
websites offering digital files of our music, whether through advertising,
exploiting databases compiled from their traffic, or any other means.
All participants in such digital exchange acknowledge and respect the
copyrights of the performers, writers and publishers of the music.
This notice should be clearly posted on all sites engaged in this activity.

All taping must be for personal use only, which may include trading (via
analog or digital tape, CD, or digital file transfer). Recordings may be
traded only for an equivalent amount of similar media (cassettes or CDs,
pre-recorded or blank). Live recordings must not be sold. Regardless of any
expenses incurred, NO MONEY MAY EVER BE EXCHANGED AS PART OF A TRADE;
however, stamped, self-addressed envelopes may be included with blank media.
In addition, the media by which audio trading is publicized may not be
commercialized. Therefore newsletters, web sites, clubs, or any other
communication forum facilitating audio trading cannot accept advertising,
offer links for compensation, exploit databases compiled from their traffic,
or otherwise derive any commercial proceeds in any form. A statement of
compliance with this policy must be clearly posted on all web sites engaged
in trading activity
