I hope this is not too far off topic, but i feel this is a very
progressive list and I was disappointed to here of this action by ebay.
This is an excerpt of a forward sent by a reputable ebay seller from whom
I've purchased albums.
I ask everyone on this list to please express your feelings on this
matter to ebay directly.

>Quite a few of you have emailed me to ask why my account comes up "NOT A

>eBay temporarily suspended my account. The reason this occurred is because
>many of the music items that I was selling were listed as promotional. A
>certain large record company reported a few of my items as violating
>copyright of their company (VeRO violation: selling promos) and I was
>temporarily suspended. Many more companies will soon adopt this practice and
>you will start seeing less and less new promotional music on eBay. I know
>many of you collect the DJ only promotional releases or need to get a hold of
>these releases for your DJing gigs. I wanted to bring this 'new trend' from
