I still fail to see how someone having a track on their PC is the same as putting it into a mix...acting like it was a purchased vinyl...and then postwhoring it all over TA in order to self promote.
I'm not open for debate on this, Laushinameee, because the basis for your debate falls on deaf ears.

I have about 30-40 mp3's on my pc. However these are legitimately purchased from legal download sites or come straight from the producer direct.
The only form of what could be classed as illegal is mix sets. But i dont see them as bad as such as your not having the full track (i dont really need a full track to tell me if i like it or not) I don't agree with downloading illegal mp3's either hence why all the mp3's i have are legitimate.
But lets point it out bright spark, its not the file format its the legitimacy of the content on that file
yes of course, but you would never in a million years say to me that you are in the majority on this issue. You know for a fact that 99% of TA users download illegal music and will contine to do so, even after saying how bad it is in this thread.
The guy was a spastic for using the tracks like that, i agree 100% and he deserves pretty much anything he gets just for being stupid, but I dont think what is necessary is a load of people so keen to run around spouting about how anti illegal music they are and how its such a bad thing.... maybe its to look good in front of the artist

the artist is concerned with people having an illegal copy. Whether this be just sitting on your pc for your own 'private' use, on a file share device or on a 'set' is of little difference to the artist.

Maybe im in the minority on this issue and i still really dont see the point in full mp3's. I buy records weekly and have severe addiction to buying vinyl, all i need is a 2 mins sample of the intro, break and outro and thats all i need.
But to be honest, if people do have illegal mp3's on their HD they don't promote about it. Unlike the person in question who thought he'd try to proove to the rest of this forum how big his balls were by having an 'exclusive' track.

So you can't respect Max's opinion, but have to flame him for having just that; his personal opinion on what's being done with his own track?

I don't have a copy of this track and if I did it would ONLY be because Max sent it to me himself. Thank you very much. I have far too much respect for the man than to download his music and then spam it everywhere on the internet. Please quit assuming that you know everything when you have no idea.

''this ****** is now offering to download for anyone else who wants it''
the artist is concerned with people owning the track 'illegally', not so much what they do with it ^

i wonder why the RIAA get so fucking worked up ... i mean, once there is any sort of controversy brought up all of a sudden no one touches illegal music

Thank you. It's his track, and he's concerned with what's going on with it. He has the right to be offended if people illegally own his work.
So what if you don't share the same opinion? He made it, thus he can be offended. Deal with it.
