To clear up some confusion for all the people who keep making up their own story...
Quoted from: http://www.etn.fm/news.asp?id=275
Ok, so.. I made a blog post on MySpace about ETN losing it's stream sponsor (true) and next thing I know every dance music forum is lit up with people overjoyed that we're closing down (not true yet sorry).
The reason I didn't post that information to any forums is because forums (except ours of course are filled with people with nothing better to do than bitch and flame... plus I've had many years of internet broadcasting to make enemies, partly because I used to be a forum trawler who would get into stupid arguments or flamewars. (now I only do that in the chatroom)
anyway, I wanted to make a much different post but I don't have time right now and I need to get this on the main page to try to combat all the misinformation that's being circulated.
FACT: yes, I did write that blog entry that's gotten pasted around all over the place
FICTION: it says that we're shutting down
FACT: Our primary stream sponsor is shutting down their entire shoutcast hosting program at the end of June
FICTION: DI killed ETN. They have the same sponsor we do it's just that since they're a commercial entity with plenty of subscribers and advertising revenue, they are not dependant on the sponsor like we are
FACT: Every person associated with ETN and even a few that aren't are doing their best to find us another stream sponsor so we can continue with no interruptions
FICTION: ETN is full of "second rate bedroom DJs that love the sound of playing to themselves and really have no talent and have never played the club scene"
FACT: every person who says that is talking out of their ass and dosen't know shit about ETN and we're better off that they aren't part of our community
FICTION: ETN is shutting down at the end of June.
Yes, shutting down is an option. It's one of several including finding another sponsor or merging with another station. When we know something for certain, so will you. via THIS website. Don't believe a fucking thing you hear about us on any forum other than our own
FACT: We have always been, and always will be a station wholly supported by our community. We make no money and therefore can only survive by donations... be they cash, hardware, bandwith, or talent.
FACT: ETN will NEVER be a subscription/pay station while Will is involved
FICTION: ETN closing would be the end of shows by [insert your favorite DJ/show here]
FACT: if ETN has to close down, I will be personally facilitating as many shows as possible getting moved to other stations. Some of you are going to be very suprised where I send some shows to (if it comes to that)
FACT: The only thing we need to survive is bandwith. If you or anyone you know is in a position to donate large (and I mean LARGE) amounts of bandwith in exchange for advertisement as our sponsor, please get them in touch with me as soon as possible. My email is will at etn.fm
peace, love and lollipops
Will

I'd tend to disagree here. Tranceaddict became shit when people joined to spam their radio show, their digital label, their gigs, labels spamming events, and when the site became less about 'discussion' and more about promotion. It's become generally accepted nowadays that people can't say anything negative, even if it's constructive, and that's where it's all gone wrong. One piece of constructively written criticism can do more good than 100 fanboys talking out of their arses. Sadly now anybody who disagrees is a hater or whatever. What people need to remember is that without tranceaddict, the biggest community of it's kind, most of these shows, sites, stations, labels would have any sort of following, or nowhere near as good as they do. Don't bite the hand that feeds you. |
Well said.
...with way too many people pretending they didn't read rule #2 of the sig guidelines.
