I have heard a couple producers say they get positive comments about using music. Overwhelmingly, everyone else (producers, customers) says the opposite.

We've considered doing one of our DVDs or website scenes with a dual soundtrack (one with music and one without) and see what sort of response we get. I suppose that would be the only way to know for sure.

I also agree with Patti and wildwest about natural sound... and believe me, getting some of our twinks to make sounds is quite the challenge. A couple times I've had to remind them we're not shooting silent films My guess is, with the younger ones, they are used to living in a dorm room or at home where they learned to be silent and that carries over.
