I telephoned performing rights about midi files a couple of months ago, I wanted to supply some midi files free of charge with a product line. they put me in touch with a government department that handles copyright - I forget who now as I am at home.
The woman was very helpful and said the media or file format makes no difference, wether its a printed music sheet, an MP3 file or a MIDI file, the same laws apply. If you want to distribute or share a copy protected file you have to have permission to do so and this normally means buying a license.
Ketron will pay royalties on every midi file (except traditional) they distribute. Thats why they are not free to download.
openly offering to share files on a public forum is leaving yourselves wide open...don't do it.
If i were you i would go back and edit your messages.
I told them not to show their bottoms in public!
