I'm not sure about the others but I don't generally follow the other riffing releases like The Order of the League groups and the like. I hadn't actually even heard of Ice on Mars until you requested one of their riffs here.

Yeah, I can't get into any iRiffs other than ICWXP, either.
1D10T, you should probably add [iRiff] or some other prefix to any future requests, so people who are into those will take notice.

Obviously tastes differ - but the old iRiff thread on KAT introduced me to QuipTracks and I was blown away by the quality of their riffs. Also, unlike MKB (forgive this blasphemy), they seemed to be enjoying themselves immensely. I grabbed some of the Ice on Mars stuff too, but I haven't even cracked it. I've had too much fun with QuipTracks.

I've definitely enjoyed a bunch of the iRiffs that have been posted on the Rifftrax site (even if they are sometimes hit and miss) and I also agree that MKB are just such old pros (and practice so much) that sometimes their laughs and stuff can come off as disingenuous and probably aren't as joyful in their riffing as they were way back in the day, or as the less practiced groups.
My goal though is to watch all of MST3K and Rifftrax before completely branching out though (I've of course watched all of CT and Film Crew since those have significantly smaller libraries), so it will be a while before I could be counted on as a source for extended riffs.

I'm in the same boat as you Iwata. I've been a fan since MST3K season 2 (even saw their very first live show in Minneapolis) but I don't watch a riff every day, or even every week. I've got such a backlog it isn't even funny. There are a lot of riffing groups, but I'm sticking with Rifftrax and anything Joel/The Mads put out for now.
Nothing against anyone who enjoys other riffing groups, of course.
