I tried this. I sent them an Apart From The Crowd CD. Ten days later, they sent me a restraining order and a pretty stern cover letter from their lawyers.

I glanced at it briefly, it seems members mail CDS to each other, which is fine, but they also mention postage should be less than $1 and the graphic suggests that you "wrap" and mail the CD only.

I can see getting a lot of scratched CDs with no booklets, which might be OK if you are only interested in ripping music onto your ipod, but no thanks. And I could be wrong, but I can't imagine a great selection, ubt I can imagine there being plenty of people willing to send you their Candlebox CDs.

Evidently, others still find it funny too. That's okay. Just ignore it if you don't like it. No reason to be offended unless you are secretly Georgie.

1. They weren't. You missed the point
2. Never
3. A former member of this Board who was banned for constantly annoying established members. He was probably the most anooying person on this Board ever. Though, he may be passed in the near future, I suspect.
