Hi all, I have attempted to contact the site's administrators at this address: amazingsounds@iespana.es from which I obtained the sounds, but their email is invalid. However, on their site at: http://amazingsounds.iespana.es/en/ it states that: <div align="center">The place where you will find all kinds of WAV files...WAV Sounds for you to download, FREE!! ... </div> <div align="center">Our content is made basically for multimedia developers or creators that want to use these files ... </div> Do I still need to get in touch with them somehow or does this notice imply free redistribution of their sounds? I guess when it comes to such things, it becomes a little vague. Thanks, Victor.

This still means that the non-commercial clause is unacceptable though. Also where did you get the sound FX? those need to be properly licensed too.
