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.

The money isnt the problem here. I would be more than happy to split expenses.
Who would manage and do all the other Bjorn stuff? I dont know anything about the music/ lyrics/ authors/ etc... part of it.
I think that Bjorn has done a FANTASTIC job keeping this website as active as it has been since the start. Bjorn has seen and read every thread and trusted his moderators to do the same.
My issue is time. I am away from home more than I am at home. I do not have the time.
Bjorn entrusted me to be a moderator in his forum. I found that quite the honor. Thank you Bjorn. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
So what do we do?
P.S. Dont know about the rest of you, but at least thank Bjorn for puting up with all of us.
P.S.S....... Be creative (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)
