"Hello Isaac: Yes. I've been to the Tunesat site. Seems similar to BMI's Landmark Digital technology. At the moment, Tunesat is not worth the expense for me. I'm not sure that ASCAP would pay any attention to it anyhow. May I ask the…"

"Thanks Chris. It just seems that, with the huge increase in digital transmission, tracking should be easier. It surprises me that it's been ignored so long. There may also be a bit of the "cat guarding the canary" scenario. They…"

Thanks Fritz. I hold songwriters in respect. Lyrics are more difficult than people realize.

Hello Eric,
I enjoyed your rendition of "It Had To be You", I'm a fan of Gus Kahn and his classic songwriting. Your other compostions are well done and are very good at conjuring up visions and moods. I write songs mostly myself and wish you good luck with your endeavors.

Hello Ray,

Thanks for the compliment.

It's been awhile since I wrote Stinger Bed 1. I think it's mostly VSL Horizon Series. I did it for Video News release. I haven't worked with EWQSLO but I do use Colossus from East-West. Yes, I agree. The East-West instruments don't seem to require a lot of tweaking but I get a fatter sound out of the VSL (with a bit of effort).

Best wishes,

Eric
