I don't know what the ACLU is or if there is a Danish equivalent.
I appreciate all the support.



the ACLU (american civil liberties union) is an organization devoted to maintaining our rights as citizens of the US. the are the ones we contact if we feel our rights have been violated, or if we were mistreated by the judicial system.

there is probably a danish equivalent. i would look it up, and give them a call. they usually give a free consultation, if not cheap or free representation.

I must say again how sorry I am. Hopefully we can find a way around this, but for now, this is truly unfortunate. Plume did such hard work for no return, and this situation is truly unfair. I feel as though my house burned down with all my memories. Perhaps we could band together and form a new site that isn't bound by copy right laws...maybe that's too lofty to even consider. At any rate, Plume you have my sympathy, and thank you for all the hard work you have done.

Maybe I'll look into that, thanks.

well just an update. I've gotten some advice from someone who knows the law better than I do. And it seems that my best option is to co-operate with them. Give them my name and address and stress that I didn't know I was breaking the law and that I wasn't making money. And then hope they'll understand and see my side. I would like to be positive about it but I imagine they'll still ask me to pay. But we'll see what happens now.

Well Plume, if you do end up having to pay, then I will be happy to help towards your debt. I downloaded from your site, so I feel I owe it to you. Please keep us posted on any further developments.

I didn't even use your site (I don't think) but I probably have songs regurgitated from your site...

I'd donate to the cause...

let us know

I am sorry
