Looks like the website for KOAY 97.5 'The Oasis' went down also this afternoon. Millcreek got a court order apparently, which forced Simmons to terminate the...

My $.02 on this issue as a music writer/producer and music buyer: I think it will force the quality of the music upward. Consumers are no longer forced to buy...
I'm just starting to pay attention to this thread, and don't know what the central issue is--only what Allison's post says. On one end of the spectrum I agree...

Actually, Mark, it sounds as if you care very much about how "good" or "bad" something is, you just don't equate well-budgeted, hi-fi production with "good,"...
... I'm really glad for that, because I don't expect many people would be watching my videos on YouTube if it were a matter of their production quality. :oP ...
Yeah, we're both dead-on in agreement, here. I heard someone once speak of an 80-20 rule. I don't know if the numbers are scientific, but it seems pretty...
