• Let me take a moment to give a hearty congratulations to @disquiet on the occasion of the site's 15th anniversary! #
• Netlabel underground simply would not have been the same without @disquiet – thank you, Marc! #

• @leonrosado Good point. in reply to leonrosado #
• @leonrosado Ooh, I'll look at that one right away. in reply to leonrosado #
• I think more people should do top 10 netlabel lists. It's very interesting seeing different tastes & hearing things you missed. #
• @Le_Berger Start scarfing! There's always way more good music than you can keep up with, that's the way it goes! Not a bad thing. 🙂 in reply to Le_Berger #
• A reminder to follow my other twitter account @liminallistener – I'll be shuffling links & thoughts about sound art to that account #

• I like that @dpnem 's list of 100 notable netlabel releases uses the word "notable", since @Wikipedia won't acknowledge this notability. #
• Mastering someone else's sound work is always interesting, definitely an opportunity for learning new things. #
• I have sent very, very many emails today. #

• @newpractice I didn't think so. in reply to newpractice #

• The new article http://t.co/GQEN4GZl in UncertainForm by @_stretts makes a vital point about the cost of free music, and how to "pay" for it #

• @tobiasreber I'm not on FB, but I think twitter's very amenable to conversation – especially for quickly getting a broad variety of opinion. in reply to tobiasreber #
• @hecanjog Nothing wrong with Echoism, even if Narcissus didn't think much of her. in reply to hecanjog #

• @Gurdonark It's… NEFARIOUS! in reply to Gurdonark #
• @Le_Berger I sustain my living through the creative act. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger My idea of sustenance/sustainability has less to do with global economics and more to do with personal happiness. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger As many as it takes. I have absolutely zero ambition to make music for money. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger I'm not exactly making the kind of music that could make me a million bucks, and that's kind of the point. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger Value and recognition and sustainability, these things don't require monetary exchange in my view. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger I've sustained my sonic practice for over 20 years now, and I've lost money every year, and yet I see value in the endeavor. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @c_a_harebell Honestly, the rush is pretty much over. in reply to c_a_harebell #
• @Le_Berger There's nothing wrong with hope. Push ahead with bravery! I'm just saying this is not MY goal. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger I don't believe CC procludes a capitalist desire for profit-making. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger Art is valuable, yes – the value, for me, lies outside of the financial system. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @implicitorder Nope. Kudos for making some money. Making money is simply not my goal when it comes to creating art. in reply to implicitorder #
• @Le_Berger I don't agree. Free net-artists prove that art doesn't need financial incentives to survive. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @implicitorder @Le_Berger If you can make money at music, I'd only applaud you. in reply to implicitorder #
• @Le_Berger I give it away because it's worth sharing, it has value. The hopes I have are that people appreciate the value, and give feedback in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger Are you suggesting it is a listener's responsibility to purchase equipment for an artist? in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger I've spent untold thousands on my equipment. My choice, my responsibility. #
• @implicitorder A pillow fight. in reply to implicitorder #
• @Gurdonark Most of my spending on equip was done in earlier days, and much of that equip lays dormant now while I use cheapware / freeware in reply to Gurdonark #
• @Le_Berger I spend money and time to create work that is free. That's something near the opposite of fascism. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger So it goes. If the public suddenly goes wild for C. Reider & wants to give me $$ I won't complain, but I'm not pursuing this goal in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger Most of the work I do now is done on a $30 editor I bought about 5 years ago, while expensive hardware sits collecting dust. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger I have experience in seeking payment for my work. It increased my marketing labor, and decreased my listenership. in reply to Le_Berger #
• @Le_Berger I'd rather spend my few free hours in the creative act rather than in marketing a product. in reply to Le_Berger #

• @cinchel Oh, yeah the one per month release schedule at Vuzh Music is a total experiment, just getting some exposure to some music I like. in reply to cinchel #

• @hecanjog I hesitate to say it, but I feel as though I am moving away from music… in reply to hecanjog #
