How about a streaming Mp3 page specifically for forum members music, or has that been done already?
Some people might not want a review or profile, or to be added to the database. Just a chance for other forum members to listen to what music other forum members are making. No copyright issues, there, as it's all original material, and sending an Mp3 for inclusion would be 'permission', in itself.

I believe that the "Music and Musicians Exchange" forum serves this purpose: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_topics.asp?FID=46 - http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_topics.asp?FID=46 I may be out of touch though as I think a suggestion along similar lines has been posed quite recently. |

Thanks. I did post this in another topic, but thought it was overlooked, as I did'nt receive a reply.

Sorry if it was you that posted it. Certainly a dedicated page for members' music, here in the forum, is doable. It might already exist, have you checked. I am in my IPhone and it's not always easy to look around the forum on a small screen.

I had a look through the Music and Musicians Exchange section, but most of the topics seem to link to sites for promotional purposes, rather than just presenting the sounds. I just thought it would be a good idea for musicians to be able to share sounds, and check out each others music, without having to link to external sites.
Thanks for your time.

Yes, I think it is a good idea and I am sure it has been mooted before and nothing has come of it. Thoughts. I think it should be restricted to permanent members only with the following criteria: 1. A minimum of 100 forum posts/or Collab/Prog Reviewer status. or 2. By letter to the Admin Team This would be to stop spam. Non compliant posts would be deleted. Thoughts? |

Sounds good, to me !!
I agree with all of the above, maybe not the letter-writing
I appreciate that it would take extra effort to (sort of) review the suitability for inclusion.
Maybe a warning for submitting unsuitable material, or spam, on the actual page, would be in order?
The way I envisaged it was...
If PA has storage space for Mp3s, members Mp3s could be submitted to that address, with just a link on the Members Tunes page that plays the tune back via a music player, or downloaded for further additions by other members. Sort of a Global song-writing forum. If members work looks like it might get stolen or compromised, then they've got the option of PM-ing each other.
Hope something comes of this......It'd be Kewell !!
 The PA Clipboard would be a good name.....just a suggestion.

| Hmm, not sure we could just hand out a link for PA "storage space".... |

Sure...see your point ......I did'nt mean just general storage space, but space to upload members mp3s to, in the same way as commercial Mp3s are uploaded.
Maybe the mp3s could be uploaded to the site, and then stored on the server by the site admin. (That's the extra effort I meant
).I can see that it would probably be a lot of trouble to administer, effectively, and I won't be too disappointed if it does'nt happen, I promise !!
Thanks for at least discussing it.
