The prevailing policy at ISP's is to punish worthy and innocent. Throw baby out with bathwater! Perhaps government's present policies will be modified by Court rulings giving businesses access to review panels that will ascertain merit of ISP's blacklisting. Soap Box Issue:

The alarm should be sent out: Fair is fair! ISP's and email recipients alike should know there are responsibilities associated when you sign up to receive a Marketer's email.

All honest, hard working marketers should be given option of presenting their side, in light of day!

OK, done with Soap Box!

With all bad things happening to email, it has become a necessity for companies to further specialize and call upon services of mail processors. They do nothing but handle large volumes of email responsibly and efficiently, such as: aWeber, Getresponse, eMail Aces and so on.

The need for above services is an obvious one because they are specialist in email delivery, don't cost all that much and do a good job. They have policies in place to make sure all their accounts are opt in and police their members for compliance. Besides, who in world has got enough time to do their own whitelisting?

Careful planning and due consideration should be given to how your Web business deals with email since it is one of most powerful marketing tools. It will go a long way to make your enterprise a success.

Q. What do listeners need to have on their computer? A. A soundcard and speaker(s) or headphones, their normal browser software and a so-called plug-in – a small piece of software that converts data into sound.

Q. This all sounds expensive. Is it? A. Not really. You can get free programs to record your sound, a computer microphone costs less than a tenner and there are free audio editing programs available on net. You then need to convert audio file to a streaming format, but there is an increasing amount of software available to do that too. You also need to think about a MiniDisc recorder as these have superseded cassette tape for most applications. Royalty-free background and intro music is available on CD and via web for a small fee.

I recommend MP3SoundStream (http://www.mp3soundstream.com/cgi-bin/cppro/go.cgi?snichols1). Its great, very easy to use and only costs $39.95. Another alternative is Sound Streamer at $34.95 (http://hop.clickbank.net/?snichols/soundstrmr).

Q. What is quality like? A. Judge for yourself - visit www.infotechcomms.co.uk/info10.htm and listen to demonstration programmes. The trick is to get quality as high as you can, but still make it playable on an average modem-equipped home computer. Once everyone has broadband it will be CD-quality for all.

Q. How do I find out more? A. There is a great ebook available called Audio C4 (http://hop.clickbank.net/?snichols/audioc4). It only costs $29.95 and is worth its weight in gold. There is a list of useful links at http://www.infotechcomms.co.uk/info11.htm
