To keep the Jukebox alive permanantly requires a large chunk of money to pay for the bandwidth to cover our asses. I may get a fair chunk of money monthly but that does have to do me the month and with school, friends and videogames all taking their own chunks outta that - it doesn't leave me a lot of room to keep buying large upgrades for the site.

The only valid option to keep the Jukebox alive every day of the month 24 hours a day is if you guys donated a little bit of money here and there to help.

However, i don't really want to ask outright for you guys to start shelling out money donations so firstly i want to see if you would agree to it or not.

When voting for this poll, please also post a comment on what you think of it. I need both votes and written comments to help me make a final decision on it.

The alternative to having the Jukebox alive all month is to have it up at scheduled weeks for 3-4 days at a time. Which isn't as helpful as it could be is it?

It's your choice.
 
I'd be willing to donate and help out.

Of course, I am your newest member. And the lot of you probably have no clue who I am. I've been to this site a total of 3 times, and liked it enough to be willing to support it in any way possible that I can.

Unfortunatley, my sound card busted and I need to get a new one. So I have no clue what the Jukebox sounds like. But if others like it, and it keeps your site alive, than I wouldn't mind donating to help you out. ;)

Kind of interesting that this is my first post. o_O

I voted but didn't reply.

Anyways, I voted yes, because as soon as I get some steady cash I do plan to donate some to the site. My only thing is I don't see the point to keep the Jukebox around if its only going to have a few songs. If we can get enough money so that 8 to 10 songs can be up at once then I say, yeah, it's worth it. If that could never be possible, tho, then I think we might as well dump it for other stuff (like what plusle said).

I've got enough tunes now of the same sort of stuff that i can put up about 10 tracks of similar songs/pieces of music at once. The bandwidth for that though would be a bit high.

If i bump up the bandwidth monthly, we're looking at a few extra songs at a time a month.

How would you like it if i were to change the song daily? But only have a single song?

At least that way you'd have it permanantly, hopefully, and you'd get some change.

Meh, up to you guys.
 
I have to admit that I have never used it and so would not want to pay for it.

Gary's idea of maybe one or two songs cycling is more my piece of toast.
