"Designer" clothes, markets
I'm really excited to see that Loudcrowd is going to be using a microtransaction style business model as opposed to splattering ads all over the site, or worse. Adding new and interesting ways to actually spend my purchased LP is going to be the make or break factor, for me at least, in actually deciding to shell out some cash.
In my own case the best way to get me to part with my cash is to give me the opportunity to churn out some user-generated content to play around with in game. Fashion and getting a look I enjoy is already such a fundamental part of the game, that being able to actually make my own mark on the fashion scene of Loudcrowd is something that's incredibly appealing.
To that end, I'd love to see the ability to make 'designer' clothing. That is, spend an amount of LP to be able to upload designs, emblems, etc to an in-site editor and use them to make custom clothing, in an almost Zazzle or Cafepress style. Options for picking 'dye' color for the article in question, and being able to tint the uploaded design itself as needed, would be excellent. Moderating this might be a bit of a chore, but shouldn't be that bad.
Now one of the more fun possibilities of this is being able to trade them. Having a market framework for trading clothing, tracks, stamps, and so on for one another would be heaps of fun, all while enabling players to feel like they've got a hand in the game that goes beyond just dancing for hours.
One last miscellaneous comment - Can we have some documentation now? I cannot for the life of me figure out what Buzz is. :P

Inappropriate?This is a great point and idea.
I'm not sure what (if any) the issues are regarding why some tracks are available to be won, while others aren't, but I'd also probably shell out some cash to be able to purchase the 'unwinnable' tracks to store in my collection and request. There's several songs on the guest DJ playlists that I'd like to hear after their playlist has expired.
And yeah, a little documentation would be nice. I have no idea what the ! points are for, I only hope they're good. -
Inappropriate?Thanks Foofad and Brad. I like this idea a lot but am concerned a bit from a legal standpoint. I'll talk to the team to see if anything like this could be done though. I'll see if I can get someone to do a quick write up on Buzz while I'm at it.
I’m thankful

Inappropriate?Regarding the purchasing of special Tracks I mentioned: You may be able to look into lala.com's legal model for their web songs (10 cents per song for unlimited playback online). I assume it'd be something vaguely similar for loudcrowd. I'm not sure how it works, but it may be a start. Good luck!
