This time around (as opposed to last) I'm really in favor of 
net.music.*.  Lately all I've seen in net.music is *zillions*
of articles about groups like "Yes" (who are they, anyway?).
I don't want to unsubscribe to the newsgroup, because about
one out of fifty submissions is interesting to me, but it takes
a huge amount of time just to pass over the ones that are not.
This is all the truer because sometimes the subject isn't clear
from the title, and I have to look at the article first.

But please, let's *not* just have net.music.rock and net.music.classical.
Let's make sure we also have net.music.misc, for things like folk,
jazz, country, which also need a home, and also net.music.d for
discussions about music in general.
