| Once they see how it will effect their music sales, they'll lift the ban. |

Armada's financial problem as it has been stated before, is that when they decided to go with the generic uplifting sound and cheesy vocals, they attracted a much younger audience. While their total number of listeners is great, that large younger chunk of the audience in general does not understand why it is important to purchase music, and pirate all the tracks they hear.
This is stupid because the piracy will still happen as long as they are streaming a radio show. Can only hurt them. |

Its whatever they want to do, none of the music I spin really comes from their label. |

Same, only liked a single release in the past year from them. DJ Eco - And We Flew Away. Now that is proper uplifting trance... unlike 99.9% of everything else they put out. |

What frustrated me about buying trance off beatport is that most of the ones I was interested in had territory restrictions while the best progressive house I was always about to get. That and the sound quality of their files was always better somehow |

Check out AudioJelly.com when that happens, you can usually pick it up over there and get through the territory restrictions because they are UK based. |

Sounds like a case of the Tiestos to me, minus the piracy thing. |

Since Tiesto fans already have so many stigmas attached to them, which one exactly are you talking about :haha: |
