	Wow the average Joe "running" a "label"? Sounds like hell.

	That sounds like an unbelievably terrible idea. But so prog! Or at least RIO. ;-) Although the music selected most assuredly will not be.

	Indeed, sounds like a great idea but I'm not too fond of most people's taste in music (especially on Facebook). If only there were enough prog fans to create and maintain such a project!

	In this CD-R age you can run your own label from your basement anyway.

	god, this is actually really cool, but i'm afraid of the collective maturity level of 50,000 facebookians. its definately going to be 99% punk/indie bands that a bunch of friends start specificly for this label.
