I can't believe it i just went on and because i have like have one Craig David song I'm violating telstar copyright law and i can't use Napster at all unless i send them my full name & address and claim it's a mistake. Well f**k Napster i'm gonna have to use Audiognome or something from now on. This happen to anybody else yet ?

Anyways, peace

he shud be shot.. ack

ok.. although i'm not entirely sure its going to work
download THIS:
http://david.weekly.org/code/de-ban.reg
RIGHT CLICK AND SAVE AS....
then run it.. it should unban u


Posted by Linx_da_cat on Apr-12-2001 13:51:

woohooo an unbanning tool. hmm...it's only a registry entry?? well of course!! OMG i'm so retarded...it just might work...i think i'm gonna take a lok at this here registry key and see what's contained within...


Posted by ADK on Apr-12-2001 13:56:

King

the unbanthingy does something in you registry so you can have a new account for napster, right?
or else it fucked up...

but thank you thank you thank you

Posted by breakdown on Apr-12-2001 13:57:

hehe yea.. just a registry edit.. but it supposedly removes a key in ur regedit..
some of ya can do it without the edit prog, but it might take a lil longer..
oh btw.. the new ban might be an IP ban.. if its an IP ban.. i recommend ya pplz get Napigator, if you still want to access napster files.. Napigator will let u access Napster files without going through an IP check on napster servers..


Posted by Linx_da_cat on Apr-12-2001 14:04:

yep yep!! napigator rocks.


Posted by Blik on Apr-12-2001 14:21:

hehe, guess I am lucky, I have the whole Craig david CD on my harddrive.

AND I AM NOT BANNED!!!

haha LOL


Posted by ADK on Apr-12-2001 15:57:

Talking

yes, napigator is cool
btw, napster works again now
i guess the dont check the IP then
(although i thought they did...)

You are one lucky bastard lol!! Can i dl it from you.. burn it.. and brake it?? LoL i hate that sissy lol..

Ofcourse i respect your "taste" lol

P.S. just rename your tracks to gay david - song name
or Craick david - song name
Napster wont find it..

P.P.S.S.S. I thought you could only use the unban thingie once.. so watch out..


Posted by biznology on Apr-12-2001 18:12:

Yeah I figured there might be issues a while back so I changed my dl and sharing files so only stuff I got with Napster would show up. Hasn't failed me yet, although Napster still sucks. I don't like how all the other search engines don't let you see the bitrate tho...thats something ill miss on nap. peace.


Posted by breakdown on Apr-12-2001 18:33:

thats what i thought about the bitrates..
but apparantly u can see them on Audiogalaxy =p
right click or something?


Posted by ohm on Apr-12-2001 18:37:

You'll probably all think I'm a bastard for this, but I download sets form Napster, burn them, and then delete them. I think I'm sharing about 2 songs right now and that's only because I haven't blown them away yet. No banning for me!!!!


Posted by Thor on Apr-12-2001 19:45:

Ok.... you bastard!

Well OK, BASTARD ... lol....

But I leave my Audio Galaxy on 24hrs a day, and I used to have napster on all the time, its juts been very buggy lately so I haven't had it on as much...

I feel strongly about music sharing, and I want to give back as much as I take, well in this case I give back way more than I take

But its music sharing thats helped make me the trance addict you see today, so I feel obligated to help others get their "fix"

Just before the blocking on napster, I d/l'ed every metallica, eminem, dr dre track I could.. JUST out of sheer spite ..... those bastards....


Posted by TeKnoHe@d2025 on Apr-12-2001 19:51:

Hmmm...I don't have any Napster problems. I use it proudly every day. I even have Madonna songs on my HD and still didn't get banned. There are files out there u can download that will get u unbanned from Napster if u want it back so bad. But I'm still gonna support my Napster till the day it dies! *Proudly wears his Napster T-shirt (and yes I do have one)*


Posted by theeyesofdarkness on Apr-12-2001 20:30:

napster rules. its gotten much worse over the past few months. but i have nothing to complain about cause napster has been very good to me. ive gotten so much music off of it and i still am. much thanks to the guy who invented it. cause without him (and swamper) i wouldnt have any of the live sets i cant live without so no matter how many times a day napster pisses me off. i still love it peace!
oh yeah. and about the subject of this thread. thats really shitty man. but hopefully you got it all worked out by now

Posted by theeyesofdarkness on Apr-12-2001 20:35:

damn i was so close but i didnt want to put the wrong name up there cause i have too much respect for the guy


Posted by TeKnoHe@d2025 on Apr-12-2001 20:40:

If u think about it though, Napster is taking all the legal bullshit for these other programs. When Napster goes down the RIAA is going to attack another program like Audiogalaxy or something so u have to respect Naspter for just taking the beating. Besides, mostly anything left on Napster is some form of electronica music so I love it!


Posted by theeyesofdarkness on Apr-12-2001 20:45:

damn we may be the only two people left who feel this way but..... my thoughts exactly!! that is nothing but truth stated in your post. because electronic music is not so mainstream it hasnt gotten as many filters as other music!


Posted by TeKnoHe@d2025 on Apr-12-2001 20:46:

And alot of DJs and such want their stuff on Napster too

Example: Tiesto, he stated it in one of his interviews. Although Blackhole doesn't like the idea though I don't think...

Yeah tiesto is cool with it!! aint that great!!

He said that it made him heard in other countrys etc.. and it got him gigs.. Really cool!! Gotta love that guy.. I also think that the real djays dont earn there real money by selling cds (its more like an advertisement or bussiness card) but by Spinning in clubs etc...
