Hello folks.
I understand that there are enough tools & resources available to all of us for discovering various kinds of music on the net and through magazines & journals...music we never thought we'd ever hear,new music in our preferred genres, new music from different genres, old music from different genres, music revelations...pretty much everything to cater to our music-related needs.
Well this thread (the program, rather) is about exploring yet another way to gain exposure to different music and broadening our musical horizons, although in a more humane & tangible manner. Music that you'd want to share, the music you'd like to share.
The idea is to simply send a CD to someone and then that person sends a CD to someone else, and the chain continues.
//Communication takes place through private messages for most of the part, and it should be frequent to avoid delays. Once a CD is received, the original sender is notified to keep track of the chain. Also, after receiving a CD, you notify the next person in line to ask for their address, and send him/her a CD.
//Groups can be made on the basis of state or region to increase fluidity of the exchange.
//Notes: No copied or burned discs should be sent, to avoid any sort of legal issues that may potentially arise. Send good/well maintained CDs to prevent any annoyance or embarrassment that may be caused by poor quality recordings.
If you'd like to participate, you can simply represent your interest on this thread, and hopefully we'll get this exchange started soon !
Rules:
1. If you sign up you must be willing to give away a CD and pay postage to ship that CD. Ensure good packing to avoid potential damage during transit.
2. CD's should be in like-new condition. They do not have to be new/sealed, but should be able to be played in any CD player.
3. If you want to share a SACD it must be a hybrid disc that will play in any CDP. Not everyone owns a SACD player.
4. Ideally, CD's should be quality recordings as we are all music lovers and are often critical about music and gear. Or think of it this way: send them a CD that you think they will like or one of your favorites for a critical listening session.
5. Once you receive your CD simply PM the next person in line for their address. Please respond quickly so we can get CD's shipped within a week of receiving your new disc.
6. No burned/copied CD's. We don't need any DRM issues!
7. Have fun! send a disc that you enjoy! When you receive your disc post in this thread some impressions and to let everyone else know where in line they are.
P.S.: This idea was inspired by a similar program I came across on one of the forums I am a part of. It can be found here and here
