I'm currently working (in my day job) on an e-commerce application
(SQLServer/Livewire) which is almost finished and contains hierarchical
catalogues, shopping cart functions, email order - but not the credit card
stuff (yet) (the customers we have so far don't want/need that).

Anyway, don't you think this goes a little too far at this point? We don't
even have the CD yet, and once we have it, I doubt that we could sell more
than a couple dozen (unless a record company gets interested and puts
marketing dollars into it). Maybe I'm wrong ...

What I had in mind was just an easier way to find out about other looper's
CDROM projects - a simple online catalogue like the Discipline label
website, containing information about, for example, Matthias Grob's CDROM.
This could be done without too much effort, and wouldn't need credit card
validation and lawyers.

It's about $100 *each year*. Correct me if I'm wrong. (I'm in Germany where
prices might be different.)
