On May 27, 2003, Ours management gave permission to Donny Duffy for shows to be hosted at the Archive:
Subject: Re: Permission for Ours shows at archive.org
Hi Donny,
It would be our pleasure to be included in the
internet archive. We are great supporters of the
public domain, and hope that hosting Ours' music will
help promote your site in some way. We do wonder
though if we would have any say in the quality control
of our music? For example, if there is a show that
sounds really bad, could we ask you to take it down if
we felt that it didn't represent our music well? In
fact, we would hope to someday even offer you
recordings of the shows that we make, as a way to
ensure that the fans get the best possible recordings
of the shows...
Anyway, please feel free to host Ours' music, but if
possible, we would like veto power over poor
recordings.
Thanks, Donny!

Admin note: In followup, we let Liad know that they could contact us any time at etree AT archive.org about removal of a show if the band objected to it. So, for best results, put "the good stuff" up here. :)
