Again' date=' somewhat defeats the purpose...[/quote']

Agree. And I assume this is a friendly share of different tastes for constructive feedback as opposed to the suspected possible reactions of 'Jesus why did you put such shite on a CD, your taste in music is in your arse, etc?'

correct

and Holly said that the list would be sorted later, I think it is more to ensure that tapes get passed on regularly, everyone makes one tape and it gets passed round everyone, so although you're originally passing your tape to someone you know, by three or four tapes in you'll be listening to the songs some random has put down for your aural pleasure.

I still think meeting up for a few pints and soem socialising is a cracking idea though...

Yeah, and we know each other already so at least if no-one talks to us we can talk about the weather or summat

Is Cd's nae easier? A lot of people no longer have tape decks, although I do if needed.

I think it can be either or' date=' it's actually easier for me to make tapes because I'd have to put loads of albums on tracks onto my flatmates pc...

but if cd's are insisted upon I can do that, but I'd prefer to do tapes...

I think it's either/or.

Having no tape deck is silly. Tapes rule.[/quote']

Well i'm not too bothered either way. Tapes will just mean listen at home only instead of on the PC at work :D

I'd be up for this, I don't know anyone on the list though. :(

I do work in the middle of town however, and can be easily found. I think mixtapes are better than CDs, they seem a bit more personal, require a bit more thought to make and you can't just skip over tracks you don't think you'll like. I don't suppose it matters if some are CD and some are tape, just make whathever you prefer.

Yeah I think a regular meet and swap is a great idea, but maybe not very good for people who work different shifts and aren't always available at the same time every week.

And yes it does seem weird just giving cd's to your friends but tvtanned is right, after a couple of weeks you'll have a cd from someone you don't know and i'm sure that'll be fine.

When the list is complete, I'll put it up, get everyone to pm me with a list of people from the list who they know outwith the boards and I'll try to arrange the order around that in a way that suits everyone.

Having said that, if it poses a challenge I'm just gonna say fuck it and go with the regular meet and swap idea.
