Before we start getting to a lengthy conversation about this, I think it
would be wise to get all the people interested together and those people
should talk amongst themselves, this way we're not wasting any body else's
time who's not interested...Once we establish who would be interested, then
we can start jotting down ideas...

Does "musicians" include us knob fiddlers and dj's? (oh no not that thread
again =))
I think it's a great idea... If there are lots of submissions will there be
some kind of vote to select the tracks?

FOR MUSICIANS ON THIS SITE:

A few years back on this list (quite a few will remember...Elson, Paulo,
etc.), there was a good-sized effort to create a compilation CD from artists
on this list. Lots of people were very excited and put in much effort to
get the thing rolling, but it fizzled (basically when the cost came into
play). It was sad- there is quite a bit of talent on the list, and it would
have been a really neat thing.

I've come up with a way that we can do this for free, get plenty of
promotion for the work, have CDs pressed and distributed for free, and not
limit any of the songs to a binding license...we could build a site on
MP3.com and promote it as a world-wide collaborative effort...we'd also be
easily able to divide up the profits from sales with an impartial method of
bookeeping

What do you all think?
