Don't you hate when the people who should most "get it" TOTALLY DON'T GET IT!Neeru@Creative CommonsWe would love to help you offer Creative Commons license to your users &#8212; it&#8217;s free, and a great way to make clear the rights and restrictions artists would like to offer their fans.Legal Department@mp3.comNothing replaces the legal protections provided by registering a copyright with the US Copyright Office--most certainly not your &#8220;free license.&#8221;

This email is formal notice for you to cease and desist from further contacting our artists through our web site to solicit for your product/services, which are not sanctioned by us.
