I seem to recall in the past that I have repeatedly made
warnings that SHADO is *not* a mailing list to discuss
copyright issues. It is a mailing list to discuss UFO.
Must I now make the entire list moderated to prevent yet
another copyright argument?!!!

No need to worry -- rumor has it that Fanderson is negotiating
for the release of a UFO soundtrack CD, and I suspect that
most of the people who purchased the CD-R will also purchase
"the real thing" when it is released.

And I suspect that the Fanderson UFO CD will also sell for
hundreds of dollars on eBay... :-)

As for other Gerry Anderson soundtracks, I think Fanderson
would *love* to release these, but historically the problem
has been Carlton not allowing them to do it...
