hi folks, I will be the first to admit that i made my fair share of trouble causing posts. I am not here to do this today.
I am here to provide some info. I am one of the founders of AVZ We actually started AVZ for dial uppers. we thought it would be a faster way for those people not lucky enuff to be blessed with fast connections to get a lot of great music in a short amount of time. It has worked, although a lot of the people over there have fast connections. Somebody on this list (i can't remember his name) made reference to us requiring a show to be in th DB for it to be able to be vined. That is not entirely true. We require that the md5's either match the ones in the db or the viner must contact the originator (taper) and et the orig md5's from him/her. As for AVZ ers being all the cool people who left etree, I know for a fact that that is not true. Some of our best viners are frequent contributors to etree. I think that is great. Etree and AVZ should have no problem what so ever peacefully coexisting. I got my start at etree thanks to none other than Rom Servo. I was known then as scott norton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) I thank etree for allowing me to come to a place where i was able to get a lot of music in a fairly painless way. I also contributed back alot of shows through B&P's. Etree has a lot of great people. I don't know alot about snobbish site ops because i dealt with very few ftp trades. I was and still am a fan of snail mail. I don't doubt that they exist, but common sense tells me that they must be the rareity because if all site ops were d--ks etree would not have survived and grown into what it is today. If you have read this far you must be wondering what my point is. All I am asking is for both communities to get along. If you want to see what AVZ is like, please feel free to come on over and check it out. It really is a nice place. I will warn you all that the amount of sarcastic and useless email over there is alot, but delete works really well. oh yeah, and Tony Gardner, your seeds rock and without you the amount of great tunes that have been spread would have been greatly reduced. I hope that this finds all of you in good health and high spirits Scott __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Great stuff seeking new owners in Yahoo!
