We believe them to be: 1) in the public domain and 2) in general circulation.<\/p>\n<p>The only shows that I will consider are American-made shows or shows made for American syndication that were produced before February 15, 1972, British shows produced before June 1957, or Australian programs produced before 1969 and not currently sold by Grace Gibson Syndication.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, our shows are in general circulation. This means that with some effort, you could track down the episodes on our show yourself, or at least you could when we first found it, and could do it honestly. We do not use episodes that were taken for high quality CD collections from sites like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.radioarchives.com\/\">Radio Archives<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.audio-classics.com\/\">Audio Classics<\/a>, or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.radiospirits.com\/\">Radio Spirits<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, quality is important too.
