If I understand the server messages right, the PDFS of the piece on this page:
http://imslp.org/wiki/Waltz_in_E-flat_m ... _Frederic)
should not be downloaded by anyone outside of the EU.
However, given that the piece is complete on one page, the thumbnail image shows the entire piece and doesn't have any restrictions. (It's also very large, when you go to the image itself.) It's existence makes the EU-download limitation on the PDF meaningless.
Shouldn't the thumbnail be removed, its file-image reduced considerably in size, or should the visible section be cut to show only the first couple of measures (an incipit)?
Perhaps there are other pieces/editions that have this same problem...
