Is this a simple random sample?

[Rachel]

I'm going back and forth on this question on my stats 215 homework. for the following problem is this a simple random sample?

"The band in which you play lead guitar has its own Facebook page. Included is a link to a free download of your bands new song. You also have a link off the Facebook page to Survey Monkey where you ask people a series of questions about the song. Consider the data collected by the survey as your sample"

Thank you so so much!

No, it is not a simple random sample.

Some music fans like taking surveys and will become part of the sample. However, other music fans hate taking surveys and will just ignore the survey. As a result, the only fans that take the survey are the ones that have time and like taking surveys.

Hope that helped
