I'm going to start on that mp3 site now.
I was wondering, because the server I'm going to put the mp3s on only
allows sound clips up to 45 seconds long *from the beginning of a song*.
They also say that copywrited material is only permitted if permission
is gained to use it and that permission is written on the web site. If
we e-mailed (or contacted somehow) the record labels and asked them for
permission to use a short sample (45 seconds?) of a song, and reference
would be made to the artist and record label etc., I think they'd let
us, and we could use a clip from somewhere other than the start of the
song. Or is this all too much to be bothered with, and should we just
use 45 second samples from the start of songs?
I'd appreciate your ideas.
