    Derek,

    I just found your new podcasts, dude this is an amazing idea, to spread ideas, just listening to the House Concert concept, I had never thought of this, and though it doesn't really likely work for a metal band touring, what a fantastic concept for folk or acoustic artists traveling, simply fantastic!

    cudo's again my man!

    best,
    Lance

    Kevin, I'm really digging the podcast. Very impressed with the layout and the cool guest's your getting. Very informative and also motivational. I love listening to it while I commute to my day job and that way I manage to save more time to being creative. I like the round table idea too. Maybe you could include a a couple of minutes in your future podcasts to letters from listeners and share it with the podcast fans?
    Keep on doing what your doing and thanks

    .Derek: I have a great idea for your new name.
    All this e-mail complaining about the new look..and the MP3's etc. You could match the mood by naming your company.. CDCrybaby.

    I am so great full to have a way to get Betty's work out where people can hear her. You guys have a hard job. I have done two books and have three sites to keep up with. It takes a lot of commitment. I have had to change my sites a lot in the past six years, to keep up with what I have learned and the new trends. I make lots of mistakes as I do not know much about computers.

    I hope you keep your business a long time as someone else owning it may not have the compassion
    you guys have for us unknowns.
    No one knows how much goes into making a site and you make hundreds of them. THANK YOU. I love the CDBABY NAME and logo. It made me trust you from the beginning. I felt close to all of you right from the beginning. Don't change your loving compassion or your way of running your company as you see it. Forgive me if I have been a jerk at times. Thanks again
    By the way everyone..Go and listen to Betty Adel's song, "We have Love" It is a great song.
