i dont know who this rezwanker guy is and neither do i want to know his posts on the last three pages were f*ckin bizzzre .. these kinda people really must not be having a conscience to post such crap even if it is just for kicks!

i read your reply and thought you had the exact same opinion as me on the matter. cheers! edit : i was tempted to quote some of your points on isratrance but i thought that would be cheating

Thank you. makes me feel much better about myself.

look no further! and tetrameth ofcourse.

is this the new freestyle thread ?

Dear tamlin this wasnt my opinion , it was a reply i got on another site where i posted this discussion. i was just looking for a counter point for the argument which you did provide! if you read my first post im against piracy and offer my full support to artists and labels by buying as much as i can and not downloading.

yea but come to think of it from a socialistic pov its for the greater good of society which brings us back to the capitalism vs socialism debate. moreover that magical wand will not work for too long for someone might pull the plug. what this particular person is failing to understand is for how long can it be free ?? there are people who are earning their bread and butter from the very thing downloading continues to distribute as if it grows on trees. just imagine a scenario where everyone starts downloading so that poor people also have access to music. the future realy is uncertain

soth - holy moly

one reply i got on isratrance .. makes me wonder If I found a magic wand that could infinitely reproduce a loaf of bread I bought at a bakery so I could feed the whole world would you say I was stealing from the bakery? Or what if we lived in a socialist society? would you still think people are stealing when they share their music? And we talk about ethics and respect for the artists. But lets remember that before file sharing became possible the consumer had to pay for a whole CD or record even though he might only be interested in a few songs, and even if they were interested in the whole CD many people agree that music in general was overpriced. Not a fair deal if you ask me, however did anybody ever point a finger to the artists and tell them they were disrespecting the consumer? Because the labels and artists are not just trying to maintain some minimal amount of profit necessary to bring music to the masses. No, they actually want to extract as much profit as they possibly can. But nobody ever complained since its all just part of the capitalist game right? Oh but now the tables have turned and the consumer can find a way around not having to pay for the music and you think it's unethical and a lack of disrespect to the artist? Perhaps its just that the game has taken a new direction where this time the consumer/public is the one getting the benefits. And by the way how many albums did you once buy and maybe lost? or do you have any old ruined records and tapes you bought that you would like to get on CD? Well have the artists come out to say they want to give us a free dowload of that music which we lost but actually paid for? Yeah so much for the respect theory, It should be obvious that, by these standards, protecting the artists potential to get profit, in general, is not an ethical obligation. Its all still fair play in this capitalist society game which we are all playing. And the claim that its the lack of incentive that is what is creating bad music today, no offense but is simply ridiculous. Economic incentive has never been what drives a true artist. Yeah compensating the artist seems fair, but unfortunately for them the music seems to want to be free and to me that feels good because I think its also fair that music can be an equal privilage to both rich and poor people. So that even in a remote village in the jungle with simply the aid of an internet connection the whole village can listen to some of humanities greatest musical creations including psy trance. Fucking hell yeah the guy has some fair points ,, what say ??

Bonky , cosma , zolod. im sad to learn phi is no more ..

thats the exact extension of what i was wanting to say ... support the artist by contributing whatever minimum you can so they do not stop doing what they do best .. and cutting piracy is the first step and making the price of cds affordable so more people can buy .

Yes and since you answered yes to my question i presumed you dont buy much buy at the normal price that they sell cd's at nowadays and prefer to download unless you are getting it for half the price.

procs - big fat snoring lamas that sick twisted melody in the middle the bassline the wierd effects !! please suggest more tracks like this .. so i can just flip my lid !!

i got it as a christmas gift.

Metallaxis - Noise Reduiction" (Polyphonia Remix)

me too .. absolutely love the first 28 minutes of this mix

Procs - Big Fat Large Snoring Lamas

so can i safely assume you arent much of a buyer but more of a downloader ?

will you buy an album from your local music store if its availble for half the price compared to online shops ?
