What does it mean if a publishing company is non-profit?

1 AnswerBooks & Authors9 years agoPersonal music playlists based on individual songs?
I'm taking a rock n' roll history class and the exams feature a section of music identification. I'm wondering if there are any free websites that will allow me to create a playlist of songs that I pick individually. I want to create a playlist of the songs that we've talked about in class to use as a study guide, but I don't want to create a station or playlist based on artists.
Any helpful suggestions are very much appreciated, and many thanks to all in advance.
1 AnswerOther - Music9 years agoShould the word "estate" be capitalized?
Say that I have someone named Peter Stone and he has recently died and left all of his belongings to a cousin, and those belongings are referred to as an estate. Would I say the Peter Stone Estate? Also, would I capitalize estate if it weren't paired with Peter Stone, but I was referring to his estate. For example, "On Tuesday the estate will officially belong to Peter's cousin." Would estate be capitalized in that sentence?
Many thanks to all who provide helpful answers!

4 AnswersMythology & Folklore9 years agoHow do you get the Toolbar on the Internet?
Today when I went onto the Internet, the little Toolbar part on top of the page was gone. If I scroll my mouse up to the top it'll show the bar that lets you type in web addresses, but the part that has the File, Edit, View, Favorites, etc. buttons on it is gone. This is only happens on Firefox and not on Internet Explorer, but I like Firefox way better and I need to use Firefox in order to access some websites that are set up through my University.
Any constructive help is greatly appreciated, and many thanks to all in advance.

What is the difference between them? Besides the obvious price increase? The ones with larger GB amounts would have more storage space, right? But is there really a difference? Can one do more than the other ones? I'm kind of lost with this, so any advice is good advice, and many thanks to all in advance.
