| Jon, Good words my friend. You are right, but keep in mind the shock factor of the events in the last 24 hours. AG capabilities surpassed those of Napster by a mile. For now, this news is very detrimental to those people that depend on AG for music. Unfortunately, in our genre of music, downloading and sharing is a big part. Since electronic music is constantly growing, the need to for music is almost necessary on a daily basis. One day of no downloads is a missed day of new music! That is a scary thought to many. Of course a new way will be found and respected as much as AG, but for now, that is hazy! Let's all find it and get back on track! |

Jon, Jon, jon, Jon !!!! How stupid can u really be ? mp3's help to promote music and despite what idiots like you think it is infact detrimental to genres such as trance to close down AG, Napster etc because they help to promote trance. I myself would not have discovered trance were it not for the Napster and have gone on to buy many tarnce cd's as a result.I download mp3's and if i like it i usually buy a compilation with the track on it.
Actually i do not even know why idiots like yourself fall for the rhetoric that music companys pump into the media ie "it hurts cd sales". who gives a stuff they earn enough money anyway those tight arse freaks!!Also that crap about "against the law"- you idiot.why the are you even on this site if u feel that way about mp3's :mad: |
At the end of the day, over 90% of mp3s are illegal, no consent given by record labels, I do use mp3 to spread my music and DJ sets, but all this whine whine poo poo coz AG has died, my heat fukkin bleeds waa waa :rolleyes:, its not just like sum1 has just cut off ur nob ffs. And TA ain't just for sharing mp3s, hence that is why there is a forum, which I use relatively less of than I used to, namely the dj + production section, new releases, and the uk forum. And as Jon says there are lots of people who have made friends from tranceaddict, well that happens in the UK and Canada atleast. And at the end of the day, I bet u own less than a tenth of your mp3 collection, which u must like as it has remained on your hard drive. |

Ill say it AGAIN!
Tranceaddict Direct Connect HUB!!!
Jesus. Just look at how many people were in the three tranceaddict groups on AG. There was like 200-300 people!
ATM there is 23 users logged in. Most of which are on Permanment connections.
ONLY 23 USERS BUT A MASSIVE 415.17 GB shared!
Based on averages using this, if 250 members joined... that would mean a huge
4510.86 GIGS OF TRANCE would be available....

Mass file sharing has been a huge phenomenon for over 5 years, and the music industry is more competitive than ever.
RIAA are out to restrict competition, and that is a gross violation of domestic law. Countless firms and organisations have had to cough up millions for doing this, Bill gates included. I hope they get what's coming to them.
In a capitalistic system, the market will only act in consumers' interests with competition. Regulatory bodies (in the UK these includes the Competition Commission, Office of Fair Trading, and Monopolies and Mergers Commission, who are considerably less strict than their American equivalents) ensure this happens by ensuring no single firm can dominate the market. RIAA's attempts to ensure the massive profits stay with the few is a shady and suspicous move, and I for one suspect they have more than a vested interest with these companies. I hope they are caught colluding, that would be the icing on the cake... |

i've dl-ed and pm-ed for login but have yet gotten anything back...sounds like you are already a user...what are some good things and bad things(if any) about TA hub??? [/QUOTE]
There is a couple of things I like
-Quality Over quantity! Nearly all of the stuff is full vinyl rip, so no more the hassle of thos eradio rips you downloaded from ag.
-Rare sets, there are sets such as the PvD@Club Eau set that were rare on AG, they are easy to get on the hub.
-Videos, many Videos on there such as the ones from Innercity and I'm sharing the TE2002 DivX DVD Rip :D
-Its fast, not as fast as AG but faster than KaZaa!
-You can chat with fellow TA's |

| well, i had a moment of silence and officially uninstalled AG...i guess like many things, it didn't last forever...but this is not the end of file sharing, in fact i know something new and better will soon replace it, but it was great while it lasted. :happy2: |

Israel and America have a bit of a love relationship going on at the moment :p 1/3 of all US foreign aid goes to Israel, a country which makes up 0.01% of the world's population. And they say the US gives to charity! The US gov loves Israel. |
