    Yes~ I would also drop $3 on Metropolis Pt. 1 for the exact same reasons

    In fact, if any of my most wanted songs were released for $3 on the RBN I'd go for it~
    Lionel Richie - "Running with the Night"
    Camel - "Lady Fantasy"
    Type O Negative, Bad Brains, Madonna

    More:
    Dire Straits, Interpol, The Strokes

    .
    Yes.

    A known quantity.
    Something I am familiar with, really enjoy listening to at any point and will not tire of listening to anytime in the forseeable future.

    My pick for example....I would happily pay 10 dollars to play "House of The Rising Sun" by The Animals in this game, let alone a measly $3.

    The Pokemon Theme maybe.

    Epic song, one of the greatest things from my life.
    Been a member since here 21 August 2008.
    1000+ songs... Expert everything except keys or pro guitar/bass.

    It's been a long run, but it's been fun.

    I see dead horses. *twitch*

    Don't worry, Ehfahq: There's plenty of artists who view this whole thing as an opportunity to build an audience, and don't count on making money in the short term. There will always be $1 material here, because "the music scene is crazy/ bands start up/ each and every day..."

    I'll only charge $3 for my brand new epic, all-BRE onslaught, entitled "LONGEST THREAD SHRED": nine and a half minutes of FAP FAP FAP.

    I really really want to say no and as of right now that answer stands.

    However if something that my band would all love and would get a TON of play AND was a favorite song of mine... I'd have to show a lot of willpower to keep up my word.

    Couldn't and can't would be my reality.

    I elected not to put a poll on here because lots of people would just answer the poll and then not comment in the thread. I wanted actual responses.

    That is a GRAVE misspelling of 'Ploy of Oracle', my friend. haha.

    In all honesty, it would have to do with the length of the song for me. I could love it to death, but if it #3 for a 2-3 minute song, then im sorry but i'll just leave it to my i-pod instead.

    If songs by Dream Theater that fit the length, or the full Prequel to the Sequel by BTBAM were to be released, I'd drop $3.

    Length of song doesn't matter to me at all, in fact a longer song is a bit of negative for me.

    Fair point. I guess if I really wanted the percentages, I could let it grow and then just count it myself. (Though the response at present is overwhelmingly one-sided).
