I'm definitely on the +1 support side of this. I love this idea, it really could help FFR become huge. Great idea.

+1 I support this Idea with everything.

Great idea. I vote north. Seriously, though, it would help to centralize everything rather than FFR having tenuous links to outside regions.

Re: A new direction for FFR

Agreed. Attracting a wider variety of musicians would be very beneficial for FFR.

Re: A new direction for FFR

So basically, you want to start some sort of muzie-ish/mixi-ish/piapro-ish thing on FFR?

Re: A new direction for FFR

Sounds great.
The interweb needs a new place for music, asides from newgrounds and Macjams, and Acid planet.

Beautiful idea KGZ.

Re: A new direction for FFR

Generally, you go to the myspace page of bands that are working with FFR and find the ability to listen to several of their songs. I'm not sure why hosting those songs here is necessarily better.

That also assumes that the bands -want- to put a bunch of songs onto our serverspace with the accompanying explicit permission for us to play the songs, use the songs for the radio, and for the game, without them seeing any money for it. That's a slightly expanded useage for the music than just "You can use these specific songs in your game and nothing else" and would probably involve a whole additional set of negotiations with the labels.

The problem is: The more mainstream the band is, the less likely they or their label are going to want to be involved in anything that means their music is being played for free.

Brilliant idea. FFRadio needs to be fixed right now.

Re: A new direction for FFR

Sounds like a plan. +1

Re: A new direction for FFR

I really doubt they'd PAY to host it here. If I was an artist, I would just leave and be happy with the myspace I'd have.

Re: A new direction for FFR

Then again I'm cheap.

EDIT: The music portion of the site would need to get big enough before people would pay though.. So what would FFR do at the beginning?

Re: A new direction for FFR

i think this is a great idea +1 support but i think they should have like a basic account and then a pro or plus or PLATINUM account where like basic your only able to upload 2 songs and pro you can upload say 10 i dunno just a thought ;x

Re: A new direction for FFR

We've had plans for something along these lines for a while now. Implementation is rough.
