(OM)Open_Mind Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 How do you think is it good to make proper rips of old music albums which is cannot be bought in any store? There is only way you can get it - from collectors on discogs for more than 100 EUR. And you don't give any support to music producers anyway by buying this CD. Some of labels is dead, some of producers too. With years of usage original CDs have more and more problems with physical media. So my question - is it wrong to rip discs and exchange with some friends? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psytones Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Agree, and you bring up important and valid points. If no one sue the person for doing such a thing, then I see absolutely no problemo in spreading the wealth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(OM)Open_Mind Posted August 19, 2009 Author Share Posted August 19, 2009 I don't think it's wrong to rip any CDs Why? If you rip new CD and share it with anybody - it is bad for labels and producers. Any work must be paid of. But if you rip old discs and share it with some trusted friends (via closed torrent for example), in that case you don`t hurt anybody. There is the clear difference in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(OM)Open_Mind Posted August 19, 2009 Author Share Posted August 19, 2009 Who said I share it with anybody? Loud and clear. Got your point. If you sure in ppl which will get rips of new CD, if you know they will buy album, if they like it. I don`t have a problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
on10 Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 There should be no problem in exchanging something with your friends as long as they are picked well. What is a really dirty feeling to us is ripping rare old albums and handing them out indiscriminately or to someone undeserving. For truly, not everyone is worthy of hearing them. We've expanded our consciousness to the point where no longer believe in the corruption called democracy or equality. There exist things that are sacred and should be kept so. There are few albums left that haven't been compromised by the filth among us, so consider yourself lucky if you have any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KozmikTentacles Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 You can't keep anything secret with the internet. To start with everyone has access to Psynews, and secondary pretty much all music is available for free with the aid of P2P. I'm not defending or saying that it's a good thing, but it's better to just accept it, it'll go easier on you when reality comes crushing into your little fantasy world.

IMO sharing,ripping it is between you and your moral. Sharing it's "good" when you're a curious person. You can try without regret because sometime review are so biased... @on10 sadly I.R.L for most people the only thing sacred is money but I understand what you mean.

Malevol3nt Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I wish people would more often rip those really rare ep's and singles, unknowns on LP's and DAT's.. There's a ton of stuff over at discogs that's listed as never been released but you just can't find them anywhere, because some bloody collectionists wants to keep it all for themselves. Or that's what I figure it to be.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rino Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Maybe you don't deserve to hear it.

Dolmot Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 It's quite interesting how a new member signs up, asks for genre recommendations, calls most music "boring" and then starts "people don't deserve to hear music" trolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was given the authorization by the fact that I have the superior position in this case. We are the judges who get to decide whether to share certain releases or not. I am merely suggesting to my comrades that they hold strong and don't give in to those who are crying and whining and full of resentment because they haven't been able to hear certain releases on their own merit, and in their final resort try to make us weak (ie. "equal", etc) towards their own ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
