Man,when are these people going to learn??!?!?!Music sharing on the net CAN NOT be stopped,and it's a battle they CAN NOT win!!!:whip:No matter how many programs that will be sued or shut down,there will always be some other program there to take it's spot.The only thing this legal action gets them is more hate towards themselves and more publicity towards the programs targeted,which most definately will increase use of such programs.RIAA are just too damn greedy and money mad to realize this,and because of that they continue to ruin some of the best music resources around.If the same thing happens to AG as with Napster,I'm gonna break something....:mad:
Isn't it all a little strange?I mean it's for the most part only large commercial artists who are alredy bloated with cash that really are bothered with this.Many independant artists consider it a great way to promote themselves,and some even feel HONORED when somebody chooses to dl one of their tracks(Tiesto and Moby for instance).It's obvious that you can't stop file sharing on the net.So why not try to use it for your own benefit?I wonder if they've ever thought of the possiblites that lie in using file sharing as a marketing option.Even now,a lot of people use these file sharing programs as a try-before-you-buy option:they dl a track from a album,and if they like it,they usually go out and buy the album.Why can't they see the possibilities that lie in this??!?!?!?!:mad:
But then again,as Mr.Mystery said,it was bound to happen sooner or later.Greedy bastards.... |

"But many MP3 hunters, discussing the merits of various services on online bulletin boards, continue to say that Audiogalaxy remains the best place to find rare or bootleg tracks."
does this ring a bell with anyone, these wankers probably come on boards like TA and see us talking about it. the stupid things is if ag is "the best place to find rare or bootleg tracks" whats the problem? if they're rare RIAA or whoever wont make a lot of money of it anyway
RIAA = :disbelief
the thing that annoys me is that RIAA is american, but they can it up for everyone across the globe
imo AG should stop the hosting of ty pop songs and "simon and garfunkel" , i think this is where the biggest problem comes from
anyway, if they eventually do close ag something else will pop-up (hopefully as good), they'll never stop us |

| While it will suck if AG goes down, it won't be the end of the world. People will still be able to find music through the mediums the RIAA can't touch - FTP, IRC, DC, etc. |

| Well really what do they expect as soon as audiogalaxy goes down, people are just gonna start again with something else, be it kazaa winMX or FTP. all they are really doing is just making us change mediums every 2 years, Its a pointless neverending battle. |

I'm deeply shocked about this news :(
AG is by far the no.1 place to find trance and heaps of other obscure stuff.
I'm just sick of RIAA terrorising the p2p file sharing networks with their ing lawsuits and !!!
I do feel for all those big record companies who are loosing heaps of money but it doesn't justify shutting down the whole site and where ppl like us has to suffer as a result.
I suggest they do more intensive blocking on all that top 40 commercial crap and leave trance and the other underground stuff alone. |

Sorry, Kazaa is gone. They are shutting down soon because they cant afford to keep fighting legal battles with the RIAA and MPAA (im not ting you. Read for yourself )
They apparantly sold their network to another company tho. But its only a matter of time before theyre sued too |

Word.
But on the other hand.. file sharing is also a problem. Artists need to get paid. I'm not talking about Celine Dion here.. |
