It must be me.
I received the tape with all labels attached to intended places, 
so, to make a copy of the tapes, I need to do troublesome 
copy-cut-paste work.

Though there may be some difficulties, I think the sheets should be
easily available for every node and leaf, who is ready for making copies 
of the tapes.
Without that, there'll be more risk of undesirable circulation.

In another respect, how do you think of copying the tapes for people
outside the internet?
The idea of free software will be hard to understood outside computer 
community.  And commercial circulation can happen if the contents of the
tapes flow out of the net, I suppose.
The collection will easily be priced over 5,000yen each in bootleg market.

Thinking this must be the way for repaying the effort of 1994 tapetree
project, I'm trying to get best possible condition copies of Kate's TV 
appearances in Japan.  
I already own a video with Seiko CF, Tokyo Music Festival(Moving), and
part of "Sound in S"(Them Heavy Peope, Beatles covers).
	[I remember `S' is for Shionogi, the sponsor of the program]
The tape is distributed among Japanese fan club.
After receiving the tapetree video, I wrote a letter asking for better 
condition copy.  I've got no response yet.

Please wait for good result (^_^)  (a `smiley' symbol popular in Japan)
