Hi Pat,

It's always good to hear from you

I completely agree with you. PG Music make this site available to showcase their product and it's my choice entirely whether to post or not to post; to maintain or not to maintain active links to my songs.

The reason that I made the original post is because I wanted to outline the full situation as I saw it so that PG Music had those details and were aware how it could potentially affect their users. Maybe they are already aware of these things; maybe not. I have no idea.

As mentioned in an above post, I found the page increase especially curious given that I have this recollection of Peter Gannon saying that he was happy that the forum finished after around 300 posts when this was discussed a few months ago.

Your assessment of the situation is, as always, well considered. As you point out, I have complete control over whether I want people to hear my songs or not. I guess if Peter has decided to go with the long term display, it's an indication that he's prepared to have posts with redundant links in them so I shouldn't feel that I am "letting the team down" by making my links inactive.

Hope all is going well with you and your family.

All the best,
Noel

P.S. By the way, if you're look for a present for your wife and daughter and they still like Korean dramas, I have just finished watching the historical drama Queen Seondeok. It was excellent and I highly recommend it - lots of action, pathos, love, and philosophy all lumped together. While anachronisms were plentiful, the formula that the Korean producers use to maintain interest is very very effective and even works through subtitles.
