If BOCA could have a part of their site that enabled digital downloads of calls 
(for a small price) I think it would be very successful.



People could select bird calls from their own area, or particlar species they 
are wanting to listen to, rather than buying a whole CD (which may have a lot 
of calls they don't want) and then which they then have to convert (perhaps 
illegally) to mp3 format.
