Vincent claimed that it is not because of money. I do not know the reason that he decided not to release it but he certainly could release it in Diep's interface and decided not to do it and he certainly could also sell it with no interface without vincent and decided not to do it. It means that the Anthony did not want to do zappa commercial. Uri
