Non-pool DJs never really pay much attention to the definite seasons of music. The first runs from the last part of June through the first part of August, the second from the last part of December through January. Pools probably vary more in this aspect than any other. We require that dues be paid promptly on the first of every month and that the required charts are tendered on time. We encourage each member's responses to the records they receive, but no formal feedback is required.
Most pools still require written reactions and mandatory pool meetings.
Soundworks only require thirty days notice for members to end their membership. Record pools are not for every DJ, we do our best to get that across to every applicant. Pools are a service business, and if a DJ can't use the service we would rather have them drop out. It was last modified on 7 May 1999.
