Yeah but its not even going to make a dint unless enough ppl order one. For example, if the final amount was set at £10, then you have half that for the artist and £5 for you.... its not a lot really is it.... im more than happy to do it, but even 10 orders is only £50.... if it settled at £20 you can double that and its headway... not much into 4 grand, but a start.

As for membership - why not run it like kenz did the bouff site ? There were auctioning off stuff there and bids got pretty high, im sure he knows how to setup the members subscription thing.... as for the £1 a week raffle - since when has been illegal to hold a raffle ? and there IS something solid at the end of the month in the forum of a product from your shop.

Enough ppl want another BITLive, what remains to be seen is if they will actually put their money where their mouth is; i think the legal stuff is a minor thing that wouldnt even really come into play.

Get some cd's signed by Rob Ben Mark and MArtin, put up an auction ! - theres all kinds of ideas, but right now, im dry out of em and still waiting on input from the community about the cartoons (read the first post ppl) with Mark and SIR in the wings, waiting with interest.

The Gaming Acts regulate all sorts of things... you'd be very surprised.

Anyway, I'll chew this all over, don't think I've dismissed it out of hand because I can see pitfalls in it.

if you can make any money with my remixes (which i don't believe... :wink: )
feel free to take them.... i've got no problem with that !!!

...maybe we (the remixers) can put together a special remix cd
with HQ-remixes.... like a benefit cd to help you to get some money back...

...maybe it's just (another) silly idea from me.... :wink:

btw. i like you.... :D esp. all the work you've done for the scene....

Heh, we could call it BIT AID. ;)

Anyway, it's a really good idea and if enough people are willing to do it for free it would be excellent!

I'd do it for free. Hell...I am doing it for free.

Its times like this when every1 bands together for a common cause that you feel the "family" element coming through :)

sounds great !!! maybe we make a virtual remix album too, which means
you can download the tracks you like and pay only for the ones you downloaded....

btw. Remixers United for BIT AID..... :wink:
