A quick update: today's meeting is going ahead, but obviously wrap up warm and give yourself extra time travelling, if needed. Technical issues with the card reader at the venue means you will need some cash for buying a drink. We look forward to seeing all who can make it.

.@SCforArtists We're following up on our emails re pirated copies of our members' audiobooks illegally uploaded to SoundCloud. These operators on SoundCloud have hundreds / thousands of pirated books, making your platform an open forum for hosting illegal content. We contend that asking #authors / #publishers to submit individual DMCA takedowns for each audiobook is unreasonable. It seems you have no proactive preventative system in place as for example @YouTube does? Do you make any attempt to shut down accounts that are mass-posting illegal content? All of this seems to be at variance with your commitment to creators. Let us know your thoughts. Many thanks
