Just FYI.. I am negotiating to pay the additional licensing required & they are pursuing the theft of their licensed sound samples.. I figured out how to make a de-installer for ringtone that I will be including in the product (thanks to the guys at Palm).

included find the e-mail about me paying more money (read hundreds of dollars) for the rigtones that were stolen byLeggnet.

Hi Bryan,

We very much appreciate you pointing this out to us. Unfortunately, you are not allowed to "re-distribute" our sounds either without an additional license. The license you purchased when you bought the sounds covers you if you're using the fx embedded in either a commercial or personal website, music piece, radio/tv production or CD-ROM. The license does not allow re-distributing the sounds in their original form (regardless of file format).

So, you'll need to purchase an additional licensing agreement from us. Until then, we must ask you to remove our sounds from your site. Feel free to contact me with any questions, and to move forward with this.

Barry

Hi -

I bought some sounds to make a ringtone product for smartphones (www.myverysmartphone.com) - I made the mistake of posting samples to the page of what the ringtones sound like in the end in WAV format. They were stolen from the site and reposted on http://leggnet.com/ringtones/ - they are posted their in WAV format for download.
I pulled the wav files and now I will compile them into flash or something to prevent future thefts.

sorry -
