So your customers are only allowed to download public domain
material?  That kind of restricts the amount of information
available on the Internet.  Nitpick:  just about everything, including
this email, is copyrighted by somebody.  Forbidding the download
of copyrighted works is not only a draconian policy, but may actually
violate several copyright laws (you're interfering with a copyright
owner's right to distribute his/her/their works, and courts are
generally not very sympathetic with your position).
