Re: [AGA-mcm] [AGA-conheads] Proposed YouTube Video



Good question, I would say that they should be more than the regular DVD since 
they always are when you buy a movie. They range from 22-34$ for most IIRC. Why 
don't we say $47? Anyone else want to take a shot at it?

By the way I just started or I should say attempted  to start to watch the 
DVD#1 tonight. You have out done yourself yet again! I only was able to get 5 
minutes into it but what I saw rocked. I only wish there was a way I could have 
gotten the kids to do their homework without having to turn it off ;-). Oh well 
there is always tomorrow night!

Thanks,

Larry
