There is a current hot topic on rec.arts.movies.production.sound
about "Elimidate" offering $200/day (where day = 10 hours).
Keep in mind they are assuming that you already *own* all the
equipment and are bringing it with you (and likely insuring it too)
within that budget. Needless to say, the professionals over there
are decrying this trend.

The post guys think it's great. The post guys are raking in money hand
over fist, fixing up and looping over tracks made by the kids these
productions bring in. Save ten bucks on the set, spend a hundred in post.
Sounds great to me.
