You know what man, I've still got about 20 copies of volume one that haven't sold. I've tried my best to give the people who ordered the opportunity to pay and get their copy...
One thing I wanted out of the way before starting Volume II was Volume I I'm going to look over my records tonight and anybody who is late paying will be dropped, and I'll put those CD's up for resale.
As soon as volume one is gone and out of my life, I'll make the call for submissions! I know we wanted to be there by now Anyhow, the first 50 or so went very well and most people were very good about ordering. And it's not that I'm "mad" at the people who didn't pay, I know how things can get tight.

One of the things we do at the other site, is to collect a fee from those who submit a tune and only ship a CD to those people. A few extras are made and sold, but only to those who pay up front. Any body interested after those run out can pay for a plain jane CD-R. without insert, etc. This way you don't get stuck with inventory you can't move and you create a collector's item!
We will be collecting a fee from contributors at submission time for sure....no more mulitple deadlines in the future!
However, I don't think I'd want to limit the "good" CD's to just the contributors. It's not really a matter of being stuck at this point, because we've already turned a good profit. The problem is really more personal in nature...I just don't want to start Volume II until I move all of Volume I. Volume I is cooler than shit!
