Burn It FYI

Just an FYI, but music overlapping on Burn It CDs isn't a big deal. Make your CD the way you want it and if there's overlap, that's fine. The whole point of Burn It (for me anyway) is to make a CD that I enjoy and share it with others. If it's stuff that people have heard before or already have, that's just the way the cookie crumbles. :-)

I received Donna's CD a few days ago, but refrained from opening it, just because I didn't want her choices to affect mine. I didn't want to feel I had to leave something out because someone else had it in their mix. I wanted to do the mix my way.

My playlist is now all set to go, and only then did I open and listen to Donna's CD. No overlap there!

But I agree with you, Kymberlie. If we don't feel free to put what WE like on our own mixes...there is really no point in doing the swap at all. I love compiling my own mixes and sharing them, and it's cool to find that some people like the same stuff that I like!

Thank you for having this exchange!

Oh...and my CD's will be mailed out on Friday!

Thanks for the advice, in addition to your email. I did realize it didn't technically matter that some of my songs match yours because you're not in my group. But, you WILL be getting a copy, and I just thought it might not be as much fun if you got almost identical CDs. You're right though, it should be about what WE like, so I did wind up leaving a few overlaps on there. Only 2 out of my 24 songs though, not bad.

I just finished burning one copy and I'm testing it out in my car to make sure it all turned out ok. If so, I'll probably have the CDs mailed off by this weekend! :)

Yeah, but I'm neurotic about things like that. While composing my mix, I don't want outside influences. Just because I know it will make me change something in mine.

On a separate note, why on *earth* did you call me at 2:22 in the morning last night?!? (I guess I have to listen to my voice mail to find out, huh? Bah.)
