it's funny how this thread has existed for 10 years now, not because of Ott's antics that have been going on for at least that long, but because he dared to insult The Band Alex In NYC Really Likes That's Not Killing Joke.

Is the article this was initially responding to online anywhere still?The original link 404ed.I mean I can just about imagine what it's like but would'nt mind a quick peruse. I'm still intrigued by what the scale of popularity of PF is since I have no way of guaging it? Or a norm to compare with. I stumbled on it by googling non-mainstream records I again wouldn't know the popularity of & don't think anybody I know who might be aware of it is exactly mainstream. So its difficult to landmark a horizon for its popularity. What would it compare to?

considering how this latest revive started, snarking about the alexa rankings of 4chan seems about as an appropriate way as any for it to end

you don't have to be affluent to write about music as a hobby. Not sure where that idea is coming from.
― sarahell, Friday, 6 December 2013 23:44 (ten years ago) link
you need a certain amount of free time.
― lollercoaster of rove (s.clover), Saturday, 7 December 2013 00:20 (ten years ago) link
idk most of the people i know who write about music as a hobby are not affluent
― sarahell, Saturday, 7 December 2013 00:20 (ten years ago) link
that you can devote to concerns very distant from those regarding food and shelter for yourself and your family.
and you need even more time to follow what's going on more broadly and engage with it, and time on top of that to assemble thoughts and hone them.
otherwise you're not necessarily writing, you're just putting letters on a screen.
― lollercoaster of rove (s.clover), Saturday, 7 December 2013 00:21 (ten years ago) link
you certainly don't need to be in the 1%. but you do need secure employment, of the sort where you only have one job, probably.
― lollercoaster of rove (s.clover), Saturday, 7 December 2013 00:22 (ten years ago) link
writing about music as a hobby is less time and money intensive than being an amateur musician, and if you want to argue that you have to be affluent to be an amateur musician, then i would say you need to get out more.
