He didn't take it off of the video to sell it for profit, he copied it to mp3 because the solo was cool. You can't get To Live Forever on any commercial audio release anyway, so that or bootleg are the only ways to get that song for in your car. What isn't cool is selling bootlegs. How hippocritical to say that he is wrong but selling bootlegs is right? Gee, im confused.

It was first used in the seminal work on the subject, 'De Lycanthropia' written in 1577 by the famed lycanthropist and vampirologist Ricardo Testa (1533-1581), who travelled far and wide in his studies, always carrying a solid silver crucifix as protection against his research subjects. -Koggie "I concede that you are not conceded, but aware!" _____________________________________________________________ This email originated from Ytsejam.com.

I have AWE 64, so I would like to ask where can I find some effects I can use for my card? 2) I need some music program so that I can combine WAVs, like in a channel mixer. I record 1 WAV (exmaple rhythm guitar) then individually another with the solo, and want to get them together. It's damn annoying doing it in SoundForge or some such programs and anyway this is NOT channel mixer.
