Jim, All,
    Thank you for the update. Do you by chance have a URL for the Spiegel
article, or was it run only in the print magazine? Don't know if your
referrer logs would indicate where it was published...
    Also, I'm getting a lot of coverage here in the U.S. that may work to
Eurorights as well. Done interviews with Hollywood Reporter (entertainment
industry trade mag), Entertainment Weekly, Variety (Hollywood trade mage)
and three other smaller pubs. Will be reworking your press releases now that
the mail has died down to less than 50 a day so that I can contact other
major pubs like the NY Times, USA Today, etc. With press coverage here, I'm
more legit in the established media's eyes and can leverage that coverage
for more interviews.
    Last, and encouraging. The traffic logs indicate that my Alert Poster
(modeled after your leaflet) have been downloaded 13,039 times in html
format, 1,833 times in PDF format and 984 times in Word 97 format as of now.

Take care,
Chuck
