This is a decision I made on my own – I’m pulling all the cassettes from the eBay store and wanted to explain: 
(Just my opinion on selling cassettes there, the store’s doing fine, no disasters & I’m getting good feedback etc.)

eBay – Item Condition by Category
  Movies & TV, Music, Video Games:

Very Good – There is no damage to the jewel case or item cover: no scuffs, scratches cracks, or holes.

I get it, it should be like new but the next level down is “Good” where you’re practically giving stuff away. Fair price is all I’m looking for and I don’t think I can get that on eBay for cassettes.

So I ended up pulling all of the cassettes from the store a second time. First time was because of scuffs on jewel cases. Decided just to provide new jewel cases.

Now it’s scratches that I missed the first 2 times around. See the 3rd and 4th picture around the reels. Click on the picture to enlarge.

Like I said, I get it. Not going to deal with it. I’m just moving on to something else. I do have a significant amount of cassettes that I can put up in bulk lots but the “good stuff” is going to the back of the line.

Music Submissions

ZZ Top – I heard it on the X – Gruene Hall, New Bruanfels Texas (2019)

https://youtu.be/adnNrK11pu0?si=5q4K9Lks_ATpg-Md

At the station, I get way too many emails with irrelevant music submissions mixed in with a large amount of “business opportunities”, website crap, fake invoices, and people who claim to have incriminating videos of me.

If you are using one of these ridiculous music submission services, you probably aren’t reading this. On the other hand, if you are an artist that wants me to take a look at some of your music – in your submission put the subject in the following format:
NTRadio Music Submission – Artist/Band name

I personally wouldn’t recommend paying a music submission service that sends unsolicited, mass-mailed music requests. You’re wasting your money. It’s not just me, most stations probably just ignore them. They’re a waste of time. In my case, even if I played it, it wouldn’t increase your exposure. My station is a niche station. While I don’t have a ton of listeners, the average time that my listeners stay connected puts the major stations’ averages to shame.

For personal submissions, it’s all about the music.

If I choose to add your music to the NTR playlist, I’ll let you know. If I don’t get back to you, please don’t take it personally.

If I’d been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I’m sixty-four?

Yesterday, today was tomorrow
And tomorrow, today will be yesterday

So ring out the old, ring in the new
Ring out the old, ring in the new
Ring out the false, ring in the true
Ring out the old, ring in the new
