Referring to this thread: /forum/index.php?showtopic=825
Facts: I don't have the time for this site anymore... The concept may or may not be legal Added focus from the music "mafia" Conclusion: Site closes down at January 31st 2006. If anyone want's to buy the domain / database it is possible. The price is set to €200/$250 for Cairde. At least twice as much for anyone else. If someone decides to buy it I can give the following info; Hosting not included, Forum license is expired but is legal to use, ads revenues from 30 -> 90$ per month. Bj�rn |

QUOTE(Muireann @ Dec 14 2005, 07:40 PM)  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Regarding the "money issue": What about all/some Cairde giving some amount to save the site from being shut down? Brilliant Idea, I even propose something, provided everyone pays a wee bit and the prices are covered, I will even offer myself a voluntary, giving my PayPal account, and taking financial responsibility!! I am not a regular on this site even though I would love to if my tight timetable allowed me to, sad to see this site closing down. QUOTE(Charlotte @ Dec 19 2005, 10:36 AM) Why not just ask for the authorizations of all these singers? It would be completely legal then. And sure we can still keep all the traditional stuffs (the really old ones) as nobody owns the copyright. You should also check the date of creation of some songs. I know that according to laws, after a certain number of years (to be counted in decades though), a song falls into the public domain. Plus we can still hold the forum. I don't think Republican opinions are copyrighted. Think it's 50 years after the copyright holder's death, somewhere round there anyway!! QUOTE(Sean @ Dec 26 2005, 11:25 AM) QUOTE(Patrick @ Dec 25 2005, 07:13 AM) I have not commented on the closing of this site mostly because I feel stunned. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) This is a great site with many great members. We all have busy lives (mine too) but we cant just let this site go. I havent time to maintain it much like my own website. If this site goes down, I will feel like I lost many very close friends. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) There must be an answer........ Anyone? Whatever... Fellas, let's keep stayin' in contact... I can start a forum at my web-site for keepin' us togeather... Sign me up, let me know by posting it here or PM me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) but it would be brilliant to keep this site alive!! one question. QUOTE Cairde: �200/$250 The rest: �400/$500 Is that what we would have to pay you? not being cheeky or nothing. QUOTE If someone decides to buy it I can give the following info; Hosting not included, Forum license is expired but is legal to use So what do we get for �400? |
