Rich Rosen, Since net.music.classical has produced ~150 articles in 10 days, there appear to be a sizeable number of Usenet readers who want it. So be it. If you wish to contribute articles about classical music, feel free to join us, else let us enjoy each others contributions. Don't worry about being left out - just add 'net.music.classical' to your subscription list. If there are a some people who feel that another net.music.* group is appropriate, by all means start one (for jazz, country, folk, rock, soul, disco or whatever). The problem with net music - like many such groups is that it is too broad for those of us with more specialized tastes. This is why net.auto is divided into sub-groups for different makes & models of cars. Frankly, although my musical tastes are fairly broad (including classical, folk, country, and some jazz), I DON'T subscribe to net.music, since I don't feel like 'n'ing' past all the Top 40 rock articles.
