zeppo!raj's suggestion may not be definitive enough. I still see a lot of
overlap between the two groups. I've been posting to both lately only because
I see similar discussions going on in both groups, and I don't know who
subscribes to which. It's probably a good idea to decide 1) whether or not
we need both and 2) if we choose to keep both, what is the purpose of each?
My ideas on the subject aren't too well defined, but somehow I think
both groups are needed. There are records that contain things other than
music (this is not a cue for some of you to say, "Yeah, like rock/disco/
Grateful Dead/etc"), such as comedy, movie soundtrack (dialog, etc.), radio
broadcast, etc. And, of course, there is music that does not appear on
records, as there are musical events, books, etc. unrelated to records.
Again, I'm not at all sure where the dividing line is between the two,
but I think we need them both. I'd like to hear (and say) more about the
issue. I am willing to field comments from those of you who can reach me
by mail (...!pyuxjj!rlr), but if you can't or if you feel it belongs on the
net, let's continue talking about this her in NET.NEWS.GROUP (preferably
not in net.records/music).
