On December 5th, we informed you that MacMusic would be closing in the near future. This brought on an important mobilization and every solution was analyzed in order to consider the survival of your site. We presently know that neither advertising - at least for now - nor a request for 'charitable' donations would ensure the continuity of the site. Its future rests upon users motivation: for this reason, a fee will now be a charged for prolonged access to MacMusic. In order to do so, a method similar to shareware will be put into place very shortly which is a first for an Internet site. The procedure is simple enough: access to MacMusic contents will always be available to all but surfing will progressively and more intensively be reduced for non 'Active Members'. New visitors will have the chance to get to know the site well enough to decide if they want to join our community. The authorized number of pages will of course be globally accounted for before the slowing down no matter how many times someone has visited the site. Once you become an 'Active Member', you can resume normal surfing and even choose not to show avertising banners. The annual price is based on that of monthly magazines although our information is offered on a daily basis and that the proposed services have nothing in common with those of the written press... The level of interactivity between readers is also not quite the same ;-) Unlimited access to MacMusic has therefore been established at $60 a year for 'Active Members' (individuals) and at $100 for 'Active Corporate' (businesses). Another feature enables you to access the status progressively if you can't do otherwise. In that case, you only need to gain MacMusic points up and until the amount of the annual price is reached. You can obtain these points by either buying them by unit (1 point = 1 $), or by making a contribution (articles, news, translations, links...) for which the number of points will be shown online soon. You can also mix the two ways if you wish. Finally, if you are an unwavering supporter of MacMusic and have the means, you can contribute even more by paying a larger amount than the established fee thus giving a more important support to your site. In that case, you can purchase points in advance that can be exchanged for new services soon to be announced. Let us keep in mind that this is the community spirit that has made MacMusic the first site on the planet dedicated to your world. So, are you ready to save MacMusic from being unjustly terminated in the very near future? Act now : become an Active Member!(You will need to be identified to access this page. If you are not already a member, register first.)The MacMusic team -> the first Active MembersAsk your questions here...

For about 24 hours the "brakes" are on. They are set accordingly to your total number of pages viewed from the start on macmusic. It's not the number of pages from the begnining of the session, but from your day 1 on MM. It affects only the non-active members. You can either become one or decide to contribute in the alternative possible ways (points, news, links, articles…). A LOT of people take this site for granted as it is build from the contribution from a lot of people from all over the world. It is not to be taken for granted. From this very month, MM MUST be financialy self sufficient and pay its server at least. Too many want only to take, few at this hour have decided to give, either their time, their knowledge or their money. And as we have seen from a few days now, these are usually the same ones. Also access to all MM is still open, a newbie can come and ask and find answers. but the people who are coming day after day have to help us save we'll have to shut down.
