Hmm... sounds just like the "anything you download from BIX belongs to BIX,
anthing you upload to BIX belongs to BIX." clause in the BIX agreement.
At least BIX has now relaxed that (they permit uploads to have a redistribution
clause attached, but guess what... When you say that whatever you uploaded to
BIX may be redistributed by the downloader... you have to say that it came
from BIX.).
