Playing Full Songs
by Agustin Gurza, 09/21/2016 - 15:59Dear Victor:
I understand your frustration and concern because your mother cannot play the full song on our site. We have received similar letters from other listeners asking why they can only hear a short clip of the songs. Unfortunately, the university sets the rules regarding public access to the material, guided primarily by copy write laws. I can tell you that there is discussion about this issue, and we take your concerns to heart. As editor, I hope one day we can open up the whole for the public's enjoyment and edification. Please give my regards to your mother, who obviously has good taste in music.
