Back from my one week holiday (without any AM...) I gladly read Jim's go ahe for the show, as well as Vax indications about the organisation.

To Sharc: I personally would suggest to send Vax a complete show with every song and every voice on CD or by e-mail (as Vax prefers), so he has the less work. Regarding the songs in hte show, I guess that if we are speaking of favorites, the moonie presenting the show has the CD or recording of his favorites, so that he can rip it easily into the desired format. I will go ahead with the production of my show with mostly material, which is not! on the Moon, although the artist is on the Moon. But of course, some of my super favorites are othe Moon, and I will consider them.

To Vax: Please let us know, what format do you want us to send you the show. (e.g. 128 kbs, numbered in tracks 01 to XX etc, by CD or e-mail).

Last question: Are we aiming now to a 2 hours or 3 hours show, ore something not "exceeding 3 hours"?

Beginning here to compilate the show.......

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not send shows via email. Do you have any idea of how big such a file would be? And it's even bigger when sent via email because the attachment is encoded BASE64 making it about 1.5 times larger in transit.

Music on the moon is ripped at 192K MP3. If you send your shows with your own tracks, this would be the preferred encoding. MP3s on CD sent to me would be ideal. If you must send them electronically, contact me first. I'll set up password protected ftp, sftp/scp or even a web upload page -- anything but humongous detestable email attachments.

As for show duration, that's will be Jim's call. I don't believe we have any show other than Gagliarchives that is more than 3 hours (Rick's and Interzone).
