Fishy, just decide how you want to do it, and those that like the idea will be involved. Those that don't can shove off.

I see the sense in the small groups as far as a monthly manageable expense.

I think I like the one-on-one exchange the best as far as time, expense, and feasability goes. In addition to the one-on-one, I do like the idea of uploading my cover art, liner notes, and mix to Scott's mac server for anyone who might be interested in getting their fix that way. This of course would also be an optional afterthought. Any thoughts?

I think OCDHG described it pretty well down below, right after my post with those 3 different ideas of how it could function. Except that I was thinking that there would only be 3 or 4 people making CDs each month instead of everyone doing it. NAF would have to take volunteers for each month, and then assign each of those people a small group that they'd be sending a CD to. The process would start anew each month, so that no one ever knew who they were going to be getting a CD from. not-a-fish wrote:Nope - you hit it on the nose.

This of course would also be an optional afterthought. Any thoughts? Almost makes me want to see if I hung onto any of my old mixtapes so that I could recreate them as a CD instead. All that old music that I had recorded off the radio back when I was a teenager... The one-on-one exchange could be a lot of work for you each month, and it also means that everyone is making a CD each month. Not that I'm adverse to that, but not everyone might want to have to do it every month.

Different approaches work for each, but I do say it should be a physical CD exchange, no matter which way it goes. While I understand the appeal of digital music being exchanged, I think that sort of defeats the original intent you had for the group. Or did I misunderstand? EDIT: Then again, this is your project... so whatever you decide should be the way it goes. I like this best, at least at first. Not sure what multiple host means.

Road trip mixes are the best, natch. For the giddyup music, we might need disclaimers about speeding tickets caused by listening to the mixes.

I was thinking that we could vote on a theme each month, you could let me know if you are interested in taking on that theme, I would make a list of all those interested, and give someone a name to send to like the gift swap idea. You don't have to particiate every month and you would only have one person to send to. Then of course we would all share what we got here on this thread.
