1. .html-files: I meant instead of simple ftp-site
have .html-files with
lists. So you can easily include files from othe sites/servers.
ahh.... that's what i was missing -- the concept of including files from other
locations. makes good sense.
2. MIDI: I didn't mean sending in MIDI-tracks as
real treacks. Just as a
possibility for the starter track. The monitor, if you like.
ok, that's probably workable, although i'd probably render an audio track, at
least for my personal consumption. ;-)
3. About the looser: I know we wouldn't loose
anything really. But Frank
Pirrone suggested only uploading the "winning" tracks in hifi-quality. that I
didn't like to much. I just meant: We could still have ALL, REALLY ALL, tracks
in hifi-quality, if we can distribute them. I think the greatest problem, that
Frank correctly saw, is bandwidth. But with multi-server distribution, the
problem is'nt anymore.
yes, multi-server again. and the only other caveat i would insert is that there are likely
to be a bunch of tracks NOBODY wants in the end, so there's no point including that
hifi content in your "ALL, REALLY ALL". i'd say hifi content should be on a
request basis -- i.e. the default is to always minimize bandwidth, until anyone needs to
make a high-quality mix including any track.
