Re: LD CD Vol.3 project

[Edwin Hurwitz <edwin@indra.com>]

I've missed the first two releases, so I am curious about how all 
this works. Is this a CD available for general release and 
distribution as a commercial (albeit very small commercial) venture? 
Or is it a convenient "in house" way for all of us to get to know 
each other outside of posted mp3s? The reason I ask is that I did a 
series of releases (starting with cassettes before CDs were able to 
be made by mere mortals) for The Bottom Line, a bass players' mailing 
list. Each submitter got charged a small discount from the for sale 
price (ranged from $6-8 depending on the format, etc) and it was 
advertised on TBL. I did all the assembly and mastering myself and 
broke even financially and probably lost money when my time was 
factored in. However, there were several TBL'ers who became 
apoplectic at the idea that they were being charged for the privilege 
of being included, even though it meant they got heard by the anyone 
who purchased it and the purchase price did include their own copy. 
For the LD release, what does the $125 go to and is there an 
expectation of profit at some point?

Lastly, where can I get copies of the first two releases?

PS Is there anyone in DenBo who might be interested in sharing a show?
