Hi Gerry, Quote: is there a way to ask the people who copy writed the material to let you use it?
Tom has had dealings with Lucas and Paramount and I've had dealings with Celador (Who Wants To Be A Millionaire). If they just asked for royalties, as in a small percentage of the revenue, Tom and I would be happy to write them a cheque every 3 or 6 months. However, they ask for upfront royalties. In the case of Celador, they would normally take a couple of pounds per disk so they ask for a projected sales figure for 12 months and want you to pay all of that up front. And when you tell them you're going to sell a couple of hundred disks they tell you that you're far too small and they would only be interested if you were generating at least tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of sales.
