I am more and more drawn, presently, to the idea that (if desired)  
people who have used the database I am developing can elect to make  
their own collection "available" and then collector X can take  
contact with collector Y and discuss their collection in more  
detail... that makes it less "stressful" legally.

And if someone should develop a similar service for the audio, one  
could come to terms that they use the database information and  
somehow it is cross referenced to their own audio library element.

A change can be nice ... random samples and allthat.
