Well, it's been mentioned a thousand times by a hundred different people I'm sure, but really dude, you should offer the ability to download all the current tracks at the same time, for like 10 to 15 bucks. Many other similar sites offer it...
You could also add extras, such as uncompressed versions, loopables (though I think you already offer those for every track, very impressive!) stingers, or even occasional extra tracks, but nothing says you have to do that if you want to keep it totally fare... After all it's your site.
You could make some extra money for running the server that way, I'm sure your costs are quite high, and you can always limit the full package's download speed to like 500KBPS (something reasonable) as to not overload it and impact other visitors.
Otherwise people are just going to use a mass downloader like "winget" or something anyway, which will have a much bigger impact on your server.


Just have them enter their email optionally so they get direct download links to new tracks when they come out, to add to their current collection, or even offer a URL in the package that goes to a buyers only page or smaller package that will easily update their collection.
You could also include a license in their that will work for all the tracks, which is easier than finding it on the site and can be shared with no effort in .TXT or .PDF form.


You make some awesome stuff, and I will donate when possible anyway, but seriously sorting through it all takes a lot of time and their is always that sneaking worry that your site will go down some day and this amazing resource will be lost!

2018-03-21 15:46:53 (edited by Eric Matyas 2018-03-21 16:02:12)

I've had a few requests for that here and there, but in all honesty not that many. Plus I add new tracks on a daily basis, so it would never be complete. The vast majority of visitors that I hear from seem fine with visiting my site and enjoy the process of hunting for tracks...that's part of the fun of it. I know that at one point Kevin M made all of his tracks available as a download for around $100...but then dropped the price down considerably...and now I'm not sure he even offers that anymore. Personally, I think $15 is a extremely low for free access to 1400 tracks of music...a lot of work went into them. But I might try Kevin's model in the future if there's a demand for it. smile

In the meantime, here are some more brand new tracks for everyone...

On my new Dark/Ominous 2 page:
"Creepy Street Performer" (looping)
http://soundimage.org/dark-ominous-2/

On my Events/Travel 2 page:
"Over Haunted Lands"
http://soundimage.org/events-travel-2/

On my Funny 4 page:
"Strange Toy Trains" (Looping)
http://soundimage.org/funny-4/

Enjoy!

I mean yeah, but right now your charging 0 dollars, which is really nice, but your also losing money on server costs, possibly even with the boost to publicity (hopefully) getting you more requests for custom work.
I wasn't suggesting you give any special license either, just the one you already have, I always thought of the payment as a donation with an incentive, or a convenience charge anyway, that's why 100 is pretty crazy.
Surprised you don't have more requests for that actually, your preview ability is nice but the splitting of larger genres into multiple parts makes searching somewhat more difficult; mostly it's about having an offline backup and knowing they have everything available for most people anyway I think.
Also as I mentioned, a mailing list subscription would nullify the issue of keeping up to date quite easily, not that it's very hard anyway with your facebook, but it'd be more convenient.
What ever you do though I still really, really appreciate your site, it's among the best in terms of quality and totally invaluable to anyone trying to save money on their project.

@Eric Matyas, would you mind providing a downloadable file (i.e. zip/7z) on the site of all the tracks available on the site sorted by genre (action, action2, chiptunes, ...)? I tried mirroring it and it gave me a fatal memory error (probably a 32-bt app) and using wget produced at 18 GB folder, and the results were... less than satisfactory.
