likewise, i don't regard p2p as the place to get quality files you'd
play
out. for that i do private exchanges. discogs is a great place to hook
up
with likeminded people. we're not talking recent releases on
underground
labels - i'm dealing with way out of print, rare sh*t that can't be
bought
anyway. there isn't any product to pay for in these cases that gives
money
to the label or producer.
yeah this is a slighty different scenario than i was talking about.
justification of a lot of bootlegs goes along the lines of the above.
btw. robin, if as you say, downloading a file on p2p is stealing, then
isn't downloading the file at emotionelectric.com also stealing?
:) why would it be? emotionelectric.com just hosts promo mixes by dj's.
nowt wrong with that.
people can hear tracks in a mix setting and because _all_ mixes have
tracklists you can then track that release down and buy it (if
available).
as far as i know, no-one says "i have this track on a mix so i'm not
gonna shell out on the vinyl"
