"Photography Licence"

I received an interesting email today... it reads as follows...

"Good Afternoon,

As you may be aware, Dorna UK Ltd (Dorna) owns the commercial and media rights (which include all racing images) to the British Superbike Championship.

It is necessary to obtain a licence from Dorna in order to offer for sale racing pictures or photographic images of the Championship series. Such licences enable approved photographers to sell images to the general public, but not to commercial concerns for production of books, reviews, calendars etc.

We have noted that you are running a website offering British Superbike Championship racing pictures and images for sale. Even though you are not an accredited photographer we are willing in this instance to grant you a licence for the remainder of the season. If you do not apply for a licence, we will take further action against you selling British Superbike Championship racing images.

For the remaining rounds of the 2006 season, there will be a reduced fee of £400 + VAT.

Please supply to the address details shown below (via email or post) the following information:

Name
Postal Address
Contact Telephone number
Email address

On approval, Dorna UK Ltd will issue an invoice for the relevant fee and payment must be made within 14 days of the invoice date. A letter of licence will be issued following clearance of payment.

Interesting because I don't "sell" my photos, I take them for fun. I think this email might have been automatically sent to many people with online galleries of British Superbikes. What do you think? Has anyone else here received something like this before? Should I be bothered?
