I just got hit with a $400 excess bandwidth bill for December - which was the result of the video files added to the Journey feature.
Seems folks went a little nuts with those
Glad they were enjoyed and downloaded so much, but they'll have to be removed as I can't afford stuff like this out of my own pocket.
If you haven't seen/saved by now - get them before Monday, as the files will be removed then.

Yep, time to cut the fat and find efficiencies.

Just hop on your horse and ride down to the Western Union and wire some dough to the Wombat, Moonie. Canadian Pony Express is too slow.

start a members forum area, where we pay an annual fee of 49.99 included would be this forum, the mrx. site, exclusive downloads etc....and more exclusive content....I would pay for that!! I bet others would too.

Andrew,
Listen. You have people here, willing to pay you to keep this place going. This is the only place where the real news and facts are spoken about. There are other places, that have simply run out of gas, and now the only thing they have is to lie and critique.
As a friend Andrew, I am urging you to accept all donations and consider making this place pay user only. Let the other place continue on a path to nowhere. THIS is the only place that matters, period.
Everybody here kicks in 10 dollars (USD), you could erase that 489 dollar debt in a day.

Become a subscriber to MelodicrockXtra. I've said this before, but I've been a member since Andrew started that, and the amount of music and vids posted there is amazing. Well worth the cash.
Of course, who knows what the bandwidth on that costs, but it is a great permium portion of MR.

And if you feel like a $184.63 tab for a 20 minutes there's even a horn # right to the Wombat's office desk.
Pleasure was all mine, 'Drew then the bill rolled in.

I think this sounds like a great idea. It would also serve to cut down on the damned trolls.

Ok ....it only took me a moment to help out Andrew. I joined MR X...then I purchased MelodicRock CD-V3. I then jotted down his address to send a little something. All of this can be found and done on the bottom of the front page. If you haven't done your part already, please consider doing so. If you enjoy posting or reading this site and appreciate what you get from it...the downloads, the information, the interraction, the friendships......and appreciate Andrew providing a place for all of it to happen.....please do your part in supporting MR and give back a little.

I agree with what everyone has said about MR-X. It really is a great value for the $35 and it benefits Andrew. I just signed up a few weeks ago and I already feel like I've gotten my money's worth. If you haven't signed up yet you should seriously think about it.
