Question #2: Audio Transcripts - How much should they cost?

[Bring4th_Steve]

The channelings of L/L Research exist in two forms: transcript and audio. The transcripts of every single channeling session – from Hatton, Latwii, Ra, Q’uo, and other members of the Confederation – are always and will always be freely available at the L/L Research Transcript Library.

The audio from each channeling session, on the other hand, has been locked on cassettes since 1974, when L/L Research began recording its channelings. Since 2008, we have been steadily converting the audio on the cassettes into a digital audio format for the dual purposes of preservation and download as an mp3 file through our online store. Our goal is to make the audio from each channeling session (the Ra Contact included) available as an mp3 for downloading to your computer, iPod, or other mp3 player for a reasonable fee.

As L/L Research offers virtually all of its material for free on its website, it is hoped that the audio download project will generate much needed revenue for the organization. In order to move in the right direction of making the audio available to the community, L/L Research would like to hear from you! If interested, please complete the above poll to help us decide how to best go about presenting these audio sessions. And share any of your thoughts with us in this thread!

Hi Steve and all
I would like to see these made available, and I'm still available if you need any help getting them from tape to mp3 format, etc. As I've told you, I don't have any real fancy equipment, but I'm willing. Mostly I use Total Recorder because it's so easy to use.

As for the price, I like the idea of $1 per mp3, not just because I'm cheap but because that price was mentioned before, and also because you can still get a 1-day membership from BBSRadio for $1.95 to download the latest 10-15 sessions...

Peace,
Manny

I personally think $3-$5 would be reasonable. I also think you should make them available in packages for a slight discount, like maybe. Like, let's say there are 75 Latwii sessions, you could sell all of them together for $50, saving whoever buys it $25 but still making you a pretty good chunk of money. And you could organize these any way you want, you don't even have to do it by the entity channeled, but could do it by like year or subject matter, or anything. This could be a great way. Like if you compiled all the sessions dealing with relationships and sold them as a package, I'll bet that someone who is currently interested in hearing what the entities have to say about relationships, and who also would like to support the organization, would buy it. And another for cosmology, etc. etc.
