They definitely work with BiaB, but they aren't free.

Like PG Music, I depend on the small price I charge to pay the rent, buy food, put gas in the car, and so on.

I also sell styles created by Roy Hawkesford and Sherry Mayrent. Roy is in England and created some nice pop and jazz styles and Sherry created a Klezmer disk that gets world wide acclaim.

In addition I sell fake 'disks' (everything is download now and no longer on disk) written by myself, David Bailey, and Jim Wedd.

The software I sell does not replace anything in BiaB, but enhances BiaB by adding new possibilities; styles written by different musicians (with different ways of playing) and fake disk song files that you can do yourself, but they take thousands of hours to compile so I can save you that much time.

Thanks Dan. I had concerns about the exe extension, but for drag and drop the 10 files would have to be dragged into the bb folder and a folder called Norton with 7 additional files would have to be dragged and dropped into the C:\BB\Data\StylePicker\User Categories folder, and I thought that would be too much to ask people to do.

I think it's an overkill for some AV apps to just refuse to accept anything with an exe extension. Yes, I know that an exe can contain malware, but (1) an exe doesn't mean that it's malware, most exe apps are legit and (2) the malware crackers are smart enough to get around that and package their evils in files that don't end in exe

I tried to mail an exe to myself, and found my own ISP (att) does not accept emails with an exe attachment, even if it's enclosed in a zip file.

AV and anti-Malware apps are essential, but they create their own set of problems.
