- Well, I don't agree. I have a particular interest in music &
- Amigas, but The volume of c.s.a.audio is just too low to justify a totally
- new newsgroup for music composing & related matters.
-
- In a situation where there is a newsgroup that is already relevent
- to a subject, you have to show some very good reasons why you want to
- create a new newsgroup for a *specific* subject. Those reasons are mostly
- "newsgroup x is so busy that a new newsgroup is needed because of the
- high level of interest in subject y". Unfortunately, c.s.a.audio doesn't
- rate as being particularly busy and it is the most relevent newsgroup for
- the topics you want seperated into a new group.
-
- Sorry, while I am very interested in music on the Amiga (I run
- about Austalian$6,000 of music gear from my Amiga), a new newsgroup
- just isn't justified at this point in time.
