Slowly but surely the CD-Rom is starting to sell now (currently about 600 pieces). BUNDLING OF THE INTERNET MPEG CD-ROM Finally I found another way of selling the CD-Rom, what is called bundling. I sell a bigger amount of the CD-Rom to hardware producers (like companies that are producing MPEG-cards) for a very LOW price, and they sell the CD-Rom together with their hardware to the end-user. The only thing that is really bugging me now, is the following sentence in the AUTHORIZATION FORM, that all of you sended in via e-mail or normal mail. It was: "This authorization will be limited to a maximum amount of sold CD-Roms of 5.000 pieces." THAT IS STOPPING ME FROM DOING BUNDLINGS ! Bundlings are starting with a amount of 5.000 CD's and sell for a low price of about $ 3 per CD-Rom minus $ 1.5 production costs. With that bundling offer, I would get at least most of my investment back and YOUR MUSIC WOULD BE RECOGNIZED BY ANOTHER FEW THOUSENDS. So what I like to ask for, is a unlimited authorization. It will be all right this time, if you tick one of the following points and just reply this to me via e-mail. (X) Yes, you hereby have the authorization to make a unlimited amount of copies of my/our music, pictures and textes stored on "The Internet MPEG CD-Rom". ( ) No, I do not want to have any more copies done. Please use this chance for a additional advert for your band and tell me what you think. Thnx for your interest, KeyJ Phade P.S.: PLEASE EVEN SEND ME AN E-MAIL, FAX or LETTER IF YOU DISAGREE !!! P.S.S: If you WANT you can send me the new authorization form again via normal mail, but it is not really needed. ---------------------------------------------------- PHADE SOFTWARE Leibnizstr. 30, 10625 Berlin, GERMANY Inh.
