Could a Mod look at this, please? Can't Post

I had made a thread linking to an article that had audio from supposedly rare recordings of Tolkien reading from LOTR, but I was just informed by another poster that the recordings are copyrighted material, and the information in the article is wrong.
Could a Mod take a look and, if the link is against the TOS, remove it please?

* link removed *

Sorry about that. I had no idea it was copyrighted material, much less that the article was inaccurate. :(

If I told you my story
You would hear hope that wouldn't let go
If I told you my story
You would hear love that never gave up
If I told you my story
You would hear life, but it wasn't mine

If I should speak, then let it be...

Of the grace that is greater than all my sin
Of when justice was served and when mercy wins
Of the kindness of Jesus that draws me in
Oh to tell you my story is to tell of Him

I deleted it [In reply to] Can't Post

Much as we allow written quotes from Tolkien's books, and film clips up to several minutes long, I think one one poem or a clip of Tolkien reading that's a few minutes long would be fine. However, I deleted the thread because the site contains much longer clips. They're sold as a set, so unless that site had permission to play such a long clip (and I didn't see any) they're probably violating copyright.

Thank you for bringing it up here!! Smile
