I call it justice.


Delivery charges on vinyl that come from overseas are justified.

I fail to see how you can reason that increased prices for downloading in another country is justice.

Or perhaps you're just deriving pleasure from other peoples misfortune. In which case you are also a C U N T.

Well done on upping prices, assholes.

I know this happened for the UK last year, but for me anyway, in Ireland, I could still buy stuff in US Dollars, making Beatport nice and cheap. They have removed this now and directly transferred prices into euros, so what was $1.99 is now �1.99.

Similarly their .wav file 'handling fee' has gone up from $1 to �1.

So now, a standard 1.99 track with handling -
$1.99 + $1 = $2.99
�1.99 + �1 = �2.99 = $4.34

So the price has gone up about 40%, which is completely ludicrous and cant be explained away by any rights issues, cost of living increases or general inflation.

Fuck you Beatport, fuck you very much. Trackitdown again for me. Although trackitdowns prices were slightly higher under the old scheme it worked out the same as they dont charge .wav handling.

I know it wont get my anywhere, but theres a stinky email been sent.


I feel your pain, however isn't the euro Ireland's local currency?

In the US, people earn X US dollars and buy tracks for Y US dollars.
In Ireland, you earn X euro and buy tracks for Y euro.

...my point being that what you earn is relative to the price of the tracks you are buying.

How can you do this?

Stop hijacking my rant thread with COR semantics, you bastards

Do you have the opportunity to take out a virtual credit card with your bank/cc company?

As mine is listed in Alabama, US i'm able to buy tracks in US dollars with US pricing structure, even though i'm paying and downloading from Bratislava.

Are you in the least bit surprised though?

This increase in price makes me pretty happy that my cd players stopped working on me right now and that I'm back to vinyl for a little while.


Posted by RJT on Feb-14-2008 21:27:

I'm still trying to figure out what "COR semantics" even means.
