Hi Mark,

The fact that something is transmitted worldwide does not mean that I have
to grant *anyone* an EXCLUSIVE, ROYALTY FREE license to USE my images or
data in ANY MANNER.

At least, that's the way I see it. The terms of use on www.photo.net seem
much more reasonable to me, while still allowing the website to function
normally and legally on the internet.

Cheers,

Alex
