Anderson,
I am not attempting to move the EAC group to another service provider.
It is not my group to move. The group belongs to Andre, the author of EAC.
Due to the maturity of EAC and the extremely low level of activity in this group, moving the group to another service would effectively doom it.
We would lose far too many members, with only a tiny percentage moving with the group.
There are other factors, but people didn’t join this group to read my ruminations on email list server provider revenue models, the effect of social media and web-based forums on traditional email list servers, or the inevitable shakeout in the email list provider marketplace. So I’ll err on the side of brevity.
Regards,
Fred Maxwell
Moderator, Exact Audio Copy Yahoogroup
