That's because most people STEAL on the internet. If you don't have to travel then you're working through the net and need the technological infrastructure and ability to make it happen (HD webcam / video editing skills / high speed internet / etc.) Then you need a way to protect it or you'll never profit from it. Then there's also the cost of maintaining the website and servers, and promoting the site so there's always enough users to justify its existence.

If you can't afford lessons then how do you honestly think professionals would get paid? At the end of the day good intentions are just hot air. You might get a few altruistic instructors but for the most part, people have bills to pay and as a result don't work for free.

As evidenced by this site, and others, there are plenty of people that like social networng and have interest in playing music.

There may be a way to do something like that through this site. idk. lol

Would you pay cash money for an account to be on this forum? There's a huge difference in farting around a webforum and posting lists of favourite musical whatevers or discussing your favourite band/album and actually learning to play an instrument.

You're also right, there IS a way to do something like this on this site - make a thread in the Instrument section and ask for a bit of advice.

I suspect the question is for market research.

Would I? No. Because I'm not interested in music lessons.

Anyway, it probably could succeed financially if ad-supported.

In my view is not needed. Just go to a good place and learn how to do some music.

Social networking is not enough to learn music as you need to have practical knowledge and environment to learn music, then you can create interest in yourself.

I agree with Mr Dave. No shortage of stuff already out there. Aside from youtube, there are websites for free piano lessons on line with many lessons progressing from basic to advanced, same goes for drums. There are all kinds of site for learning guitar. Sure there's a market for it. But plenty of supply to meet the demand.

You think he only likes Franco and Pepe Kalle but when you find out that he hears other artists, you are shock. Girls are the sexy thing that God created. Important to notice FPK.
