Unless this has changed in the last two years the cost for a collection is $35, at least that is what it cost us two years ago.

Also the Library of Congress will take MP3s now. In the old days they only took manuscript! The only limit on the number of songs in a collection is their upload limit. We did around 12-15 songs at a time for the single cost of $35.

{edit} We do not copyright anything now either!

Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
