That is an interesting perspective Mike,it seems clear to me that Taxi is a proffesional and reputable business that takes it customers seriously.If you learned something new and meaningful about the industry, perhaps you did get your money's worth.Forty minutes of direct,personel,and honest advice from a fellow like Michael Laskow is probably worth a couple hundred bucks by itself.

I'll stand by my original post though.Taxi is making all of it's money by rejecting material that has no chance of ever being sold, and no profit motive pushing marginal that isn't a slam dunk.In the old days,and to a lesser degere still, low level people would get paid by publishers and record companies to listen to thousands of hours of almost universally terrrible music in the hopes of finding a single hidden diamond.Now Taxi gets paid to listen to the same stuff and the record companies save a bundle.It really is a brilliant idea.I tip my hat to Mr Laskow.
