Subject: Misfiled Lecture
Yes - The lecture has been misfiled and as we are getting to grips with uploading and using the archive to best present these audio books, lectures etc we ask you to please forgive us any errors, they are not intentional.

The content of the books is very special so we do wish to represent it in the best possible way.
By all means please go to http://www.vaisnava.com/audiobooks.html for this and other devotional material in the Gaudiya Vaishnava line but do watch this space as we shall be uploading more shortly.

I realise that there is also a discrepancy with the license that we need to work out - The work is all rights reserved - but we wish to distribute it and share it in the archive for everyones benefit. Is it possible to upload content to the archive that is not under the CC license??

Any help is appreciated.

Sincerely

Jay Govinda Das

These are mp3-files filed under moving images. They should probably be filed under audio (Open Source Audio). For those who can't decipher what it's all about due to the non-existent description: This is a book that is read aloud. You can find more information on the originals at http://www.vaisnava.com/audiobooks.html, a site that seems to be the source of these files as well.

The recording starts with a notice on "all rights reserved", yet it's being distributed under a CC license here. Which one is it? The information on publisher in the audio file also contradicts the information supplied here.

The narration was a bit too British English for my taste, the sound a bit clinical. I would have enjoyed some sounds of nature from Navadvip on the background for the atmosphere. Also, I'm wondering, since these are originally lectures, why they've been transcribed and then again read by another person? I would much prefer hearing the originals.
