[musictlk] License Agreement

[Steve Jacobson]

If I were you, I would seek some real legal advice on this.  I suspect that you can probably protect yourself from someone just copying your library and 
redistributing it, but I don't know that you can keep someone from redistributing a noncopyrighted work that is contained in your library unless you have 
added some value to it.  However, you want to be certain that you know exactly what can work for you if you are going to make a business of this, you 
don't want to base anything on our guesses as to what should be the case.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson
