You can never have too many composers :D

It all depends on a variety of variables not least of which is the camera being discussed and in the end is usually highly subjective.

You a bass player too zen?! Indie: Let us know when you get another batch! Payday for me is this upcoming Tuesday. Too slow apparently!

Some nice tunes there mate. :) Like zenner I'll have to wait 'til payday. I'm a bass player so it's always fun to hear other people's bands!

Heh, yeah, school is great in that respect. :) I got my hands on Adobe's Production Studio Premium for a whopping $200. That includes Adobe After Effects 7.0 Professional, Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0, Adobe Photoshop CS2, Adobe Audition 2.0, Adobe Encore DVD 2.0, and Adobe Illustrator CS2. It's a...

Nice find! Thanks knightly :)
