As I said, there's no problem putting the files on Sneezy. It's what Sneezy
is for. However, the excerpts themselves (music) would have to be out of
copyright.

The rationale for not labeling them would be to keep the confusion down - as
you mention, if everyone's idea of "dark" is slightly different then we get
x1's "dark", x2's "dark", x3's "dark", etc. - which doesn't, at least to my
mind, mean anything out of context (as Tony put so eloquently).

I am reminded of a concert I attended with Horowitz playing piano. It
sounded as if he could play incredibly loud fortissimo when needed - but it
wasn't actually so. He could play incredibly softly - which made the
contrast with loud passages prominent. If I listened to his fortissimo next
to, let's say, Ax, Horowitz's would not have the same power. But in concert,
in context, it worked magically.
