RE: The Internet and "free"... (in reply to Thomas Whiteley)

Tom,
This is exactly the same web site (although the address looks different) that I mentioned in a post a few days ago in the member's discussion area 'Free Flamenco Tabs'. This guy is also selling the Tomatito 'Encuentro' book for 20 euros. I'm sure that he downloaded it from the Russian site that scanned and posted it. It looks like almost all of the tabs listed are freely available on the internet at various sites.

I'd write and tell him that you're still waiting for your royalty check.

I wonder what Tomatito or the Encuentro Productions people would do if they knew? ANybody know their email addresses?

I just went to the web site and notice that he has removed the Tomatito book from his list. I wrote him a nastygram on another forum when he posted the link to his web page. All I did was ask him if Tomatito knew about it and reminded him that Tomatito has relatives in Huelva.

Can you remember the URL where you found this guy - not his home site but where he posted the link to his site. I think I will get nasty too!

Tom,
It was on a Spanish forum that doesn't get much activity, however the web site is interesting.
http://personal.telefonica.terra.es/web/vivirelflamenco/inicio.html
The owner of the forum wrote to me and said that he deleted the original post and my nasty reply. He doesn't want that kind of thing and he had know idea that the guy was selling 'free' tabs and copyrighted material. But check out his web site anyway.
