Actually, Joywitch, the Moderator Team made the decision to take it out of
the Files section as it violates WB's copyright for us to store it. Heidi
suggested (but did not legally advise...did I get that right, Heidi?) that
we dissuade folks from putting it back.

However, it's fine to post a link to the actual trailer instead of the WB
site, if anybody wants to. I know it was on DarkHorizons.com in the News
Section at one point, but can't vouch that it's still there.

Incidentally, another reason not to have huge files like the trailer there
is that YahooGroups now has a daily File Transfer limit based on the number
of listees in a group. As yet we've had no problems with this, but if we
were to put an enormous file in there I'm sure we'd have issues.

--John, always willing to discuss this further through private email :)
