Audio-Forum going bye-bye

If you haven't already heard, Audio-Forum is closing its doors. The website says all remaining stock must be sold by February 10th. Everything is currently 65 per cent off.

http://audioforum.com/index.php

Of course, if you do purchase FSI materials from them, we can't use them on this site.

Or can we? I'm just dreaming aloud, or dreaming online, as the case may be, but if they really are going out of business might it be possible for someone there to give permission to post their versions of FSI products? Even if they did, I suppose a copyright lawyer would have to comment on the legality. It would surely help fill in the gaps if such a dream were to come true.

This news was a surprise for me yesterday when I was traveling around the web, web saw the audio-forum ad telling that they shut doors. In 98 I got its catalog, and passed to dream whem I would be able to buy the books (maybe I'm a lucky guy because I founde FSI web page, and all books Audio Forum anounced from FSI I could get here) In other sites of the web I could get they Language/30 booklet, not all, but 90% of them. But Audio Forum also had other books that I didn't find at the web, and now that they shut doors, these books could enter at public domain. Anyway it is sad to see a language editor like them shuting doors.

Still talking about Audio Forum, I would like to ask if the Czech Track posted at updates, April, is the same Fast-Track book that Audio Forum sold for yeras?
According to their catalog, the book serie include also Mandarin, German, Japanese, Spanish, Dutch and Portuguese.

I don't think that they are the same. The Fast Track that they offered were by different authors and seems more business oriented.

Hope that helps,
