The whole mp3 download deal has been done to death and there will always be difference of opinions.
This thread is about the peoeple who actually leak the tunes
I mean the guys trusted by the labels and artists who get tunes before the general public and leak them.
This genuinly hurts releases, sometimes even cancells them.
How can you s do it ? does it make u feel all fuzzy inside knowing that youre the one who leaked the new G&D production, or some new Schulz remix ?
What gain do you get from this ? Money ? Sluts ? what is it ?
What can drive you to do like this ?
I want to hear from leakers on this subject, as I know there are quite a few on this board

| I know a few people who give me hook-ups to REALLY new and unreleased tracks that they get directly from labels or DJs who get from labels. I dont leak them. i actually respect the music and although its not right that i have it in the first place, i dont leak them off onto the p2p's. i dont see the point. why cause an instant classic track to get cancelled because everyone has mp3s and no one wants to get the vinyl.. ghey... although i would buy the vinyl anyway :p |

| i won't share anything until it's released/widely available on p2p. in that case people are going to be searching for/downloading it either way and i figure one extra source won't make any difference. tunes that get sent specifically to me from friends etc will stay in an unshared folder until that point |

| I get as many G+D promos as I can and leak them to every torrent and p2p out there. That way I can piss off tightwads like you. :stongue: |

everyone is going to say, "well anything i get i'll just keep in my unreleased folder" or "i buy everything i download".
i'm not a leaker but i have a profound respect and understanding of the trance scene and mp3 scene in general.
some do it for the glory of being the first to bring it out. some do it just to piss the label off. most of the time the leakers leak to private places that are meant to stay private. it's people who distribute it down to the lower levels that exclusive and rare music find its way onto p2p who are the real "leakers".
and some do it to share the beautiful music with those who can't afford to buy every single piece of music that gets released or cannot afford the equipment to play the music that's carried on vinyls.
i'm inclined to think its the last one but of course everyone is entitled to think what they want to think.
anyway that's all i have to say. again i'm not a leaker. just someone who loves the trance for what it is and will support it for many years down the road. :toothless |

If it weren't for those leakers, I would have my hands on half the trance I have today, and I don't mean actually own, but actually know about. You know how hard it is to find good trance nowadays?
I say let the leakers do thier thing, spread the wealth, and the knowledge. Why should people be left in the dark about what's hot and new?
They're not doing it for the money, thy're doing it so people like you and I can all be on the same page.
Even Armin says that if it were'nt for the interent, he wouldn't be where he is today.
Meh, my opinion i guess. |

There is a difference between leaking tracks that are released wich isnt going to stop and is fine with me
and with tracks that arent even signed to a label which can cause the tracks to never get a release |
