Re: The greed of RIAA is going to kill obscure trance

This news was quite devastating for me because AG has become an essential part of my evenings during the last year  Of course, this wasn't a complete surprise. I suspected this could happen sooner or later, but I hoped it would take a couple years longer.
Now there's a big panic to get everything worthwhile downloaded before AG closes or blocks 90% of tracks  Who knows ... there may never be another file sharing service which has almost all trance tracks. It's so frustrating and ironic that all pop songs and trance hits which the record industry wants to block will still be available on some other p2p service, but the rare tracks will disappear from the public entirely.
Besides, this is also going to affect adversely unknown trance producers who now have less opportunity to get their music available to fans. Their music has been getting attention mainly when the tracks have been included on the CD mixes and live sets of underground DJs. Because of limited press size, and little marketing hype, these CDs have been available to only a handful of people in the DJ's own country. But thanks to AG, people elsewhere have been able to obtain copies of tracks and even entire mixes on mp3.
Another potential way to get attention have been the features of upcoming producers on trance www sites. But now the site administrators will not be able to learn about unknown promising trance producers through mp3s. So there will be less feature articles on www. I'm afraid this is going to make the trance scene more commercial because only the established producers and big-hype CDs will find their way to to trance fans. |
well put.
i would miss SOOOO much trance if AG shuts down.
