The idea is simple- power to the people. With corporate business taking over radio more and more, we're hearing more of what "they" want us to hear rather than what we'd like to hear. Reader's Choice is where we say "this is what we'd like to hear". Songs of a higher caliber as stated by the thousands of readers of Rkstar. The Voting Booth
This is where you put your votes in for each song, you can hear a 30 second sound clip of it, see how it's done in the past, and see how readers are voting so far for the current voting week. Each time you vote, the more weight you get for the next time you vote. You can only vote once per week though. Suggesting a Song
This is where you can suggest a song for Reader's Choice and talk about it with fellow readers. If you're in a band, or represent a band wishing to get listed on Readers Choice, only a small fraction make it, but here's what best to do:
1) Write a kick-ass song.
2) Put said song on an album released in the past 18 months (or upcoming).
3) Send Us the CD marking the single clearly.
4) Get your fans to suggest the song on the suggestion board.
