Hi
This is mainly for David Blumberg but if anyone else is interested let me know.
If you remember I wrote about the french Trio De Clarinettes and you were interested in hearing. Unfortunately it was impossible because of copyrights so I couldn't send mp3 samples. Now I finally got a program that lets you cut small samples from tracks so I can send short samples from their album.
Are you still interested?
GBK/Mark - It might make people buy the CD so I think sending small samples form it would be ok right? If not let me know.
Thanks.

I'm probably going to get their CD. Thanks for the reminder!

IANAL, but 10-15 second representative snips of each work are probably just fine to stay within the copyright laws.

Mark, what does IANAL mean?
I looked and amazon doesn't have samples from this specific CD, but it does have samples from other CDs with the same performers, and from other CDs by the same label, and all samples are between 30 seconds and 1 minute, so I was thinking anything up to that is ok. If not I'll make them shorter.
What do you think?
Thanks.

Probably not. Amazon & the publishers have agreements in place. There is no "official time limit" in the U.S. Copyright law under Fair Use, but there are some guidelines in some unofficial documents.
Shorter is safer. All you're trying to do here is present some group of people as performers becuase you like them, so really long segments shouldn't be necessary.
Yes, the copyright lawyers do go after small fish ...

They go after small fish when they swim with the sharks.
Share something with your friends and you are fine. Share something with strangers and you may as well be sharing it with the head of the RIAA

On ITUNES there is a modern clarinetist named "Evan Ziporyn" who has some really good tracks.
Press Release and Biak-words are my 2 favorites. Highly modern, but also very cool.
Never heard of him before, but quality stuff.

So what do you think of this trio, I sent you the (very) short samples.
