CD-ROM technology may be glitzy, fun technology but it is a publishing medium just the same, so similar use fees should apply. One thing about the publishing industry is that you will witness "song and dance" justifications about why you shouldn't charge use fees. When the archive community, at large, responds uniformly in an affirmative and rightfully "standing our ground" way, they will cease to "pull the wool over." I've heard many wildly spun justifications during my years doing photo rights and reproduction. Cheers, and hold the high ground.
