THE EPIC MUSIC SURVEY
Lately there's been a lot of call for a dedicated music section for the forum. And while I myself am a hell of a lot more of a videophile than an audiophile, I figured I could use my epic OCD-ery to produce an equally epic survey thread to sate certain appetites and have a chance as a catalyst. Come what may, this thread is here for your perusing pleasure.
RULEZ! RULEZ!
To avoid the inevitable problem of having Horace_iz_tklish embed the entire Jackyl music video collection into a post, there's gonna be a few rules to prevent saturation of video from overriding the pleasure that comes from READING this thread. Not everyone appreciates the genius of Steely Dan or Warrant, so we have to protect you from yourself when you get the urge to embed Queensryche's entire catalog for the entire forum to see. So here are the rules.
1. NO MORE THAN 10 ANSWERS PER QUESTION. If you have a tie you can list it, but don't go overboard.
2. NO MORE THAN 10 VIDEOS PER POST. That means if you're gonna embed videos, you got a maximum of 10 total, so make 'em count.
3. NO QUOTING ANOTHER POST IN ITS ENTIRETY FOR REFERENCE. Copy the part you need and quote that; and DON'T overdo it.
4. NO EMBEDDING ALBUM COVERS EVERYBODY KNOWS. If you embed an album cover, make sure it's obscure and less known so people who want it can find it. Don't go embedding Dark Side of the Moon as if no one's ever seen it; save the popular ones for the one-off questions with only 1 answer. And, as always, don't overdo it.

NOTE: 10 is the MAXIMUM number of entries per question...that DOES NOT mean you HAVE to put 10...it just means you CAN'T GO OVER 10.
