Here are some thoughts on net.music and net.records usage.  If people like them
as guidelines, that's fine, but don't think I'm trying to cram something 
arbitrary down your throats.

I think articles on the following topics should be submitted to net.records:

	a.  What records by ________ are available.
	b.  Who has hard to find records.
	c.  Reviews of the performance quality of a recorded number.
	d.  Reviews of the musical quality of a recorded number ONLY
	    if records are the artist's (or group's) primary medium.
	    Use your own judgement here.
	e.  Discussions of recording industry issues (royalties, ethics
	    of taping, etc.).
	f.  Discussions of recording technology.

Articles on the following topics should be submitted to net.music:

	a.  Musical/performance reviews of live concerts.
	b.  Musical reviews of pieces that may have been recorded, but
	    are more intended for live performace.  Notice the mushy 
	    boundry between this item and item (d) above.  Once again,
	    use your own judgement.
	c.  Comments about individual musicians or groups.
	d.  Discussions about music theory.
	e.  Information about instruments, both acoustic and electronic.
	f.  Comuputer music information.
	g.  Discussions of music industry issues (excluding recording issues).
	h.  Humorous music-related discussions.  (If you object to this type
	    of discussion, you better gripe about net.jokes, etc., first.)
	    
Obviously, some articles will fall into never-never land between the two
groups.  In such cases, I would suggest posting the complete article in one
group, and posting a small announcement about the article in the other group.
