But sharc brings up a good point on the payola idea, and that is knowing when the rq plays. Nothing would stink worse than paying for a request and then a replay of Gags or Gnosis comes on and by the time it plays you're sitting at a red light in Malfunction Junction on the way home. Scratch the payola.

What about another pay feed, say 96k for $25? Or, since there are so few $50 members, would lowering that bring in more money by volume? Do I have a freaking clue what I'm talking about? Does this have anything to do with the "busy-signal?" Is there tea in China?
I'll take a whack at this.

In no particular order:
  1. I'm not sure our software supports 96k. I'd have to investigate.
  2. We pay by use, not on how many slots we have, so lowering the number of available slots would have no effect. That's what I was lead to believe, and if this isn't the case, Jim will likely correct me. But that's what I unnerstand.
  3. Yeah, it's a good idea, just not under the model (a 1953 Edsel) that we're operating under
  4. Yes.
  5. Only when operating under the license granted by Charles Nelson Riley, Phyllis Diller, and in the center square, Paul Lynne!
Roger -Dot- Lee, It's really a Studabaker, but I'm not sure of the spelling.
