theVoiceofReason.com believes that all pieces of music on this website are in the public domain. This may change due to laws currently being considered in the European Community. As at 14th March 2008, all recorded musical works fall by default into the public domain 50 years after either being recorded or being released in the United Kingdom, depending on whichever is later (beginning in the year after the 50 years, so for example if a recording is released 17th November 1957, it goes into the public domain 1st January 2008).

If you would like to discuss anything with us on this site our address is editor@thevoiceofreason.com. This law does not extend to musical recordings by artists in the USA. It is standard practice to determine copyright based on the laws in existence in the country where the recording was made, therefore we believe that these recordings are legally downloadable worldwide.
