Akai S1000 / S1100 samplers

Overall, I think that's a more even message.

Additionally, even if we indicate use of copyright 
materials, I think you should put the disk images up, 
just stipulate that this is for a limited time.

I say this to protect myself too since I will use 
drums that I value but that should not be copyright 
by anyone; so they are free use to whoever gets them.

So that's the only other change: 

a) mp3 posted for unspecified period
b) disk image for 1 month period.
