    Hey All,

    I’ve got an idea for a new game music service and would love to get your thoughts on it.

    I’m interested in creating a music licensing service specifically for game music, with a focus on helping small and indie developers find affordable, high-quality tracks.

    Here’s what I’m envisioning:
    - A website that features a catalog of songs and tracks, mostly by indie composers and musicians.
    - Game-centric ways of browsing tracks: by game genre, mood, or likeness to well-known games.
    - When you find a track you like, pay a flat-fee for it. This gives you royalty-free rights to use the track in any of your games.
    - All musicians and tracks are approved by us, to ensure they meet copyright and quality standards.

    Here’s what I’m wondering:
    - What are some factors that would make a service like this appealing to you?
    - What would you consider to be a reasonable price for a high-quality track?
    - What are similar services out there that you’re currently aware of?
    - What else do you think would make a site like this really cool?

    Thanks for your feedback, and let me know what you think!
