Members Listening Library

Crazy Moon People.... if you're reading this then YES, that means YOU>

I just thought about this...tell me if I'm crazy...well..you don't gotta tell me that but....Wouldn't it be cool if the Moon had a Listening Library where Members could go and queue up an album to listen to in private...sort of like the progstreaming website but only we could do it with any album in the library...
Like I would like to sit down and really listen to this Potemkine from Dales show but I cant really do that at work...

sooo watya think about that???

Of course we would have to take precaution about people trying to download or record it... There really would be no need to do that if you could listen to it anytime on the moon but ofcourse people will be people....sooo There would have to be some security measures in place but I think its a good Idea....

So....again, watya think?

ps. Dale just brought up the point of royalty fees...I know nothing about that but we may need to send in...... THE SPANISH INQUISITION!!!!

Sounds like a neat idea. While I could handle the control/security aspects, I'm not so certain that SAM is up to the task. SAM software that's geared to do exactly what it is we do with it -- stream music within a radio station model.

NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!

Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise...

I'll come in again.

Re: Members Listening Library

Seems like a good idea but it also seems that it would hurt the artists as listeners would no longer have a reason to purchase the music.

Wow! Great idea. Even if it costs a little to access. I'm on board. But I doubt it will happen. Only because it would be TOO cool.
