AudioStation - The Conclusion

Well after over 70 emails from everyone here's what I've concluded:

O S / 2 N E E E E E E D S S O M E T H I NG L I K E T H IS!!!!!!!!

O S / 2 U S E R S W A N T T H I S P R O G R A M !!!!!!!!

I won't be able to respond to everyone but I just want to say thank you very, very much for your enthusiastic responses. Its heartening to see so much interest in this idea which is actually more than an idea because parts of it are already complete.

Some of the biggest questions that was asked by you was:

1) What is the maximum size audio file that can be handled? Well the way that I'm planning to implement this will allow for audio files as large as your hard drive can hold!!!!

2) Will I be able to convert these audio files to MP3 automatically?
Well I hadn't thought about doing that right away as there are other applications that handle the job adequately. But if the demand is overwhelming I'll put it on my list.

3) Will it operate similar to CoolEdit? Well that is my plan. CoolEdit is a really great application and I'd like to use some of its concepts with AudioStation.

What I'm going to do is open up a new e-group on Yahoo's (formerly EGroup's) site so that anyone who is interested can join in and share in the creation of this tool. I'll be posting my project plan for everyone to see, criticize and maybe even commend. That way everyone knows where the product is going and when they can expect to see a release. How does that sound to you?

Thanks again,

P.S. Once again I apologize for not being able to respond to everyone's emails individually but each one is really appreciated.
