There does appear to be a (understandable?) slant in the genre, style and age of songs.

I know there is frequent solicitation for folks to post song requests but maybe that's not enough and perhaps a *good* marketing poll is in order. One that would identify the member as to age and guitar experience and then rank their favored genres, favorite time period of those genres, artists, and a whole bunch of other stuff that could well change the song balance in the lists we see.

As it is now, I/we don't know how a song is chosen by GT to pursue licensing or what factors/characteristics of the songs come into play in making that choice.
"It takes a lot of devotion and work, or maybe I should say play, because if you love it, that's what it amounts to. I haven't found any shortcuts, and I've been looking for a long time."
