All P2P has to do with Music is how the music is shared. Nothing, from the composition, lyrics, the music, instruments, band members, are touched by P2P.

The mean of sharing has nothing to do with the medium itself. It would be thefore very easy to move the innapropriate thread.

Technical aspect aside of some instruments people could share, popular concerts, shows, albums and collections could be discussed among music enthusiasts.

What would be the actual "flow" or thread type of such a forum that it would need it's own forum.

What topics need to be discussed in a specific music forum that cannot be posted in the public chat forums?

I for see the threads as being opinion threads of various artists or types of music.

How is that different than say "Timex watches are the best", then "yes I agree" then "Timex watches suck!". This is a discussion? No different than what we already have but geared and specific only toward music.

An idea would be to have 2 moderators, one on the east coast and one on the west coast to keep an eye out on this forum. There are also the "super mods" who could check in once in a while.

The kind of comments like "that music SUX, lol" would have to be moderated/deleted, not appropriate for this type of forum.

I hope that clears up that point for ya!

Edit: Another idea, if possible, is to ban people from the Music forum only who repeatedly post stuff that doesn't contribute to the forum. I don't know if it's possible, if Justin or another mod could chime in on this that would be great.

I'm proposing a new forum for Music: anything and everything related to it. From instruments to bands to specific songs, there's a lot that can be discussed.

Many times in the Cooler there are threads with youtube videos of music but they get buried under the many topics that start every day. Having a dedicated music forum would allow people to show what they like, and actually show off their own work. I'm pretty sure we have some music aficionados and amateur musicians who would love to show their stuff.
