// Also as an aside, I havent heard Fr.Gasper mention even ONCE in press about the contribution of TIS-USA team or other fans in US or India towards the completion of this project. //

vijay...tisusa's participation was mentioned in the press meet...

i think $15 was based on the cost of classical albums from Sony...for example ARRs "warriors of heaven and earth" is currently listed at $13 (on sale at a lower price)...

and nothing can be a deterrent in converting and distributing tracks as mp3s...

i think the US price should be determined by the price in India...i am sure formulas exist for the markup...

Kbee,
It is really very nice of you to take active part and promote this project at this time.
I wonder how u missed the meetings held in NorthEast area last year.
I think the price should be minimum 10$ and maximum 15 $, most of the online CD/DVD buyers opinion is that the shipping and Handling charges are huge in many sites, which should be taken into consideration also.
Reasonable discounts towards bulk purchases of more than 5 may help people buy more.

Are u involved in the making of the special commemorative
( I might have spelt that word wrong) T shirts ?

Are there anyways to contact Mohankumar and other "wellwishers" and request them not to do their usual social service in their sites?
I know, Coolgoose admin will respect our wishes in removing the mp3 ( personal experience) links if we request them.

thops, if the duration of each track is long it wont be as easily uploadable/downloadable as film tracks.I didnt say that conversion to mp3 wasnt possible.

If TIS-USA was indeed mentioned I stand corrected. But from what I have read and heard so far no mention of the fans contribution was made by Fr.Gasper. Even when he appeared on TV he was talking about incurring heavy loans but didnt mention the fans contribution.

Thats like missing a life time opportunity. I recently only joined TFMpage, while searching for some reference related to IR music. Since then TFM became my home(page).

I am not, but if you know someone is, please let me know. I can definitely contribute to this effort. If no one initiated, I can work on this. Please let me know. I do know people who own companies in Tiruppur, so should not be a problem printing. The problem is only in importing from India, but I can check on that.

tmrrmt, I got your mail. I will reply seperately to your mail.

There is a belief that the more a product is priced, the better the product will be. Thats also one of the reason why certain products are priced higher. When we had NBW and HTNI for $7, no one bought the CD from us, because they thought its a duplicate CD. The minute we increased to $10, we sold out and I have orders for atleast 25 CD, but I couldnt fullfil them. So $10 seems to be reasonable, with volume discount for people who buy 5, 10, 25 copies.

Sent a mail to quote for both round neck tshirt (normally you get them for $3 in streets of NY) and polo type TShirt (you get them between 5 - 10).

Kbee,
I think TISK had mentioned earlier in this thread about the
"T shirt", please check with TISK, but it will be a good idea especially for all HCIRFs to have ( order) one if that is eventually available

Just off the phone with Saregama. Ppl in India still wanted to price the CD at 15, but saregama USA sent some facts on the CD market here. They asked me to "stay put" regarding tarrif and other details.. Will updte you as soon as I hear from anyone.

I need some help. What are the websites where we can give Ad for TIS.

"What are the websites where we can give Ad for TIS ?"
