Perhaps a more difficult question would be this.
 
How much money would it take to make you give up listening to all music for the rest of your life??  $12K, less, more?

How about $1 per post? That way someone who hasn't posted can't make a dime.  What's a fair compensation for reviews? LOL

That's not very much money at all... but if it will cease my addiction to this website then yes please!

Would this be to just leave the forum, or to leave the site entirely?

Five bucks.  I'm mainly here out of spite anyway.

The wife has, but for sexual favors rather than US dollars.

I hear tell the British exchange rate is comparable for those as well.  Geek
1 British sexual favour is worth 1.61 USA sexual favours... Shocked

That explains why after a perfectly satisfying Monday morning romp, she went twice in the evening and I didn't get to go at all!  Angry

I'd give up every forum I post on for 1/12 of that amount.

That sounds good to me.  $12,000 would take a large bite out of my student loans.  Where do I sign? Big smile
