No, because we have almost 28,000 titles and do not need it.

You are the fourth person to ignore the OP:

It's like the N-Word.....it's implied........
save you the trouble
I am the second person to ignore your request twice.....it's part of the sequestor....they're comming to get you Joe....

No...but if I was just starting I would.

No--because
Foundation 1 and 2 plus 5 bricks--1200 .00
Dk library--freeware
All Hits--freeware
Pioneer--freeware
Heelavadisk--freeware
Doctor Music--freeware
Georgia Brown--freeware
Chartbuster 12000 song library--2000.00

At risk of derailing this thread.....

Are you saying that you would pay money for the Foundation and Chartbuster content, but would freely download the remaining brands simply because they are not being policed by anyone?

OK, so far a grand total of 2 non-SC shoved GEM users. Also, out of 26 replies, 5 read and comprehended the OP. So far, a very teeney percentage of non-coerced GEM users. Though he hasn't replied, I will add DannyG as a Yes, making three, or 0.0188% of over 16,000. Anyone else?

I don't have GEM. Don't want GEM.

Do I really need to explain to you why this methodology is flawed?

You can see a fairly up-to-date list on the SC website. Very few of those listed were defendants in lawsuits (also a public record). What is your point?

I think he is trying to find out the percentage of SC shakedowns and the percentage of voluntary buyers. You already have one judge calling your efforts "shakedown suits". I am sure in time to come more judges will start to agree with that assessment.

I don't know Jim, it sounds pretty scientific to me. Try putting on an aluminum foil hat, and go back and re-read what he said.
........like the Doc(Bones) would always say to Captain Kirk......he's dead, Jim.......

Which will be IMPOSSIBLE to calculate from responses on these forums.

No (@$%&#!)?.......

Exactly. Statistically, what you will end up with is a very small sample base with a very LARGE margin of error...which in the ends means you have actually discovered nothing.

Nope, it's flawed- but just good enough to make my point.

I was using this forum- because of the sheer size of a membership devoted to karaoke- strictly as a sampler.


1) Gem users by pure choice are a miniscule minority here.

2) The majority of the folks here have the perception ( the truth of which is not germain to the result) that Using Gems doesn't deem to be a sound business decision.

The margin for error can be absolutely HUGE, but the majority/minority are clearly defined nonetheless.

Of the current sampling, this tells me that- in my own opinion, of course- these sets would probably not sell all that well without some pushing from SC that didn't involve selling the sets qualities.

What is on the website does not reflect how many people use the set- not because of quality or even song needs- but rather as a pre-emptive defense against SC's actions. I say that because of the following:

The site shows 113 sets out there. It also shows states shown the most SC "attention" seem to have the most users. For instance, out of the 113 sets, California shows 24, Florida 25, North Carolina 9.

That means 51% of total "sales" are concentrated in the 3 states most bothered by SC.

Less hit states like Connecticut (2), NY ( 1 ), NJ (4- one's a double listing) seem to have very few sales. Now, consider the population density of NY, NJ, & CT- offering HUGE sales opportunities. Where are the sales?

Now add the GEM deals made through "settlements" on top of that, and we see how the majority have been spread out there.

I guess the fear tactic works for you, but call it what it is...

I thought I explained that, the membership number does not represent the 'actual' number of true users. The majority are spam members, then members that have not posted in years, then members that have done a 1 on hit & run post never to return. The actual regular users probably represent MAYBE 20% of this forums member count.

And in the opinion of Ancient Astronaut Theorists, the Egyptian pyramids were electrical power generation stations or was it spacecraft landing stations. Maybe it was both.
