I highly doubt that 40% of the content on this list interests every single list member. You just take what you want from the list. What one person finds interesting and useful will be boring to another. I don't care about posts about IDM music appearing in TV ads, but for some people they are interested.

Your complaining about 5 posts a day??? Damn, what's 5 extra clicks on the delete button.

I guess my point is that I would rather people post about their interest in the music, versus their interest to cash in by trying to get ridiculous bids.

See a perfect example of what interest one and not another.

So are you ok with people promoting their shows, just not showing what they play? Many of the people that have shows have contributed quite a bit of good discussion to the list.
