Jim Alfredson Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 (the CDuniverse purchases have slowed down for y'all, haven't they?) What the philosophers would refer to as a "necessary consequence" of what's being discussed in "Are jazz reissues dead?". Then buy the Jazz Icons DVDs!

Is that what we were watching at your place the other day??? If so, I need a link bro. g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
six string Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Holy Crap! I just read the thread about the possible closing back on January 1, 2008! I didn't realise we were that close to closing down. I'm really sorry I don't pay attention to the "business" side of the board. I've corrected my discrepancies by donating to the cause. This place is truly a wonderful place to visit and I'd hate to see it go. My apologies for being late to the party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

six string Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 You're welcome! I'll try to pay better attention in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted March 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Since some people still can't get along, I figured I'd just add to this thread (and delete the other one) and say if anyone wants to donate to the forum, that would be great. Thanks. Let's keep this on topic, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medjuck Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Hey Jim: Are you still getting a fee from Amazon? I've been buying a lot of non-music things from them recently (like a camera for my daughter) and always try to remember to go through the forum. Anything showing up?

Jim Alfredson Posted June 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Yes, thank you. We still get a small amount per month from them and CDUniverse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 How's the $$ holding out, Jim? Is it time for some fund raising? You mentioned some $erver i$$ues, just wondering if it's time. With you having three little girls to raise we can't let this board become any more of a pain for you than it is already!

Larry Kart Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I've been meaning to ask the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Now that the software is upgraded, there is a subscription service available. I'm wondering how many of y'all might be interested in such a service so instead of me bugging you once a year to donate, it can just come out yearly or monthly or whatever. I don't have much to offer in return, but I would put a cool little graphic beneath your avatar that said something like "forum supporter!" so you can feel all cool. Opinions?

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 I think this is down to you, Jim. You know what the needs are and how they're timed. You know how you feel about coming out every year (or whenever) and saying "cough up". On the other hand, I've no doubt that some people cough more than others and it's right that we do what we feel we can. I'd go along with whatever you feel is right - and I think most of the regulars would, too. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 To be clear, I'm not saying I'll turn this place into a pay-site. Rather I'm asking if some folks would prefer a subscription so they don't have to think about donating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papsrus Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 I for one don't mind at all being reminded periodically. Maybe there's a way with this newfangled software to set an annual pop-up reminder for members, or just send a blanket PM to all members once a year (twice a year, whatever the case). Donation sent, btw. And thanks for making this great board available, Jim. It's not only a fun place to hang, but an invaluable resource.

J.A.W. Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 It's probably me, but I don't see the "donate" button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr jazz Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 making donations easier would be a good thing-I know it's not that difficult now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
