imagine if listening to ASOT will someday cost any kind of money...
what will you think? how will you react?
i think armin will lose many fans of the show and the popularity of the show will drop! ASOT is a good trance radio show but it is also a BIG COMERCIAL for armin. people made armin big and he can fall just the same. millions of other djs will be so glad to give a good & quality trance show with such a big publicity just for free!
i like armin (only when he plays melodic stuff) but if he thinks he will make extra cash because of his name, he will lose me and million other fans more.
think about it for a second and tell me what do you think.
p.s. i am not cheap. I have been to 4 gigs of armin in israel eventhough i didn't like the 70% progressive he played!

heh, he's not making the money. the people who bought teh show are.



he sees profits from his tours.

of course he will make money!

Of course he won't! He's mentioned several times that he doesn't intend to make money directly from the show.

dear friends,
armin made the show for free for id&t and so far. if asot will cost for internet listening, he will get money from it.

Dude nobody cares. Forget about it.

Accept the fact that you're wrong.

He makes no money on it now! He never said he intended to make any money off of it!

If they start collecting money as a subscription to ASOT (which will never happen), Armin probably even then won't see any of it. Money will be used to pay artist whose music is played, and for the servers it is hosted on.
