Ok guys, having seeing new changes to the forum and the introduction of a fee for the upkeep of the site i,d like to share my opinion with you all, firstly, i feel glenn is absolutely right to have to do this as maintaining these sites don,t come cheap, the reason i hav,nt paid at the moment is purely because i have all the files i need (plus i just never got round to it) but i intend to join to keep the site open as you won,t find better, i see the forum as a seperate issue and have seen a few members annoyed at the recent changes, as far as this goes nothing has changed regards us helping each other out on requests, pc repairs etc. I certainly do all i can to help fellow members out where i can as do the majority of members, the help i have recieved from this forum is amazing. I appreciate that some members are on small budgets and maybe can,t afford fees, but that does,nt mean your knowledge is,nt valuable to all on the forum, and it woud,nt appear that any pressure is being applied to pay. Lets keep the family together!! Stay smart, stay with midimart!!! To Glenn, Pat and all the moderators, thanks!!! Regards, Tubbs.

Well put Tubbs. I am one on a smaller budget however I spend many hours in the forum. It is my daily highlight and I too am very appreciative of the wonderful help I have received through my free forum membership.
The one thing I do miss is being able to just check out what new midis have been added to the main site.
A big thanks to all who make this such a wonderful and helpful site!!!! Lyn

I agree with both of you. This forum is kind of family for people with a genuin music interest. And the change had to come for financial reasons. But I do wish I had been better informed in advance. And I do miss checking out the new midis every day (especially as I contribute pretty often).
Apart from this I am a very happy family member of the Forum and appreciate very much all the help I have got. This is a great community !
Thank you all! Lena

Yes Lena, I too miss checking the new midis each day. It was good to see what is to be available for the time when I can spare a few dollars to join the main site. Why can't we just have a peek at what's new Glen??? Lyn

Lyn Being able to view the new files that are available to those who are Gold members may soon be a possibility Remember it only cost about 60p a month for unrestricted access to the main site and Gold membership for a whole year!
