My little portable player hit that part of teartear where (rhymere) the US version has the two second hole. When I was listening to a stolen copy this didn't happen =P |
||||||||

|
|
oh post other stories along these lines and stuff. |
||||||||
|

|||||||||

One time I downloaded music and it cost me nothing! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
two second hole? please explain, I do not recall this ever happening |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I am able to download and listen to fragments of thousands of songs rather than listening to hundreds of entire songs |

'many, if not all, pressings of this us version contain a defect in the audio of track 11 - teartear. this is an unintentional production error and is not present in the uk warp pressing' from the discography sneakattack, you could buy the uk version and it would have the same result :) |
||||||||
|

|
|
wha? please elaborate. (slow internet?) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks. that's weird, I have the US version and have never noticed anything. I will have to break it out again and doublecheck.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i actually never noticed it until i had read about it and listened for it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i always run into it and i've wondered whether its on the UK pressing. this totally sucks, i want to get the UK version now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm too tired to check the exact location, but a whole mass of pressings have a glitch maybe 3/4 through the track where there's silence for ~1.5 seconds and then the tracks resumes. VERY annoying. |

you are correct sir. i paid over $30 for that fucking album. i just told myself at first that it was Autechre's intention to put the gap there to justify the purchase. i'm very determined to own the UK version. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you already paid for your music! you may even be able to send it to warp to get a fixed replacement. or just download it. |

worsten!! |

well, it's great for when you want to hear out-of-print/hard to find albums, when you want to discover new artists, when you're looking for b-sides and don't want to buy all the singles, etc. also, cd players hate me; mp3 players don't. (but i still buy lots of cds) |

by downloading music you can preview things and not be disappointed for paying for a shit release. there are artists i will buy without a 'preview', but they are few and far between. also, much, much, MUCH music is not readily available for purchase, even if i wasn't in debt up to my eyeballs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
downloading music is good, but i hate the quality of mp3 if you burn it to a cd, now if it was flac....thats another story me loves flac. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have a bit of a double feeling about flac. one side of me thinks it's great if you can't find the original release anymore, or if you're ripping your own cd's to flac to upload to an mp3 player or something. the other side thinks that if you want lossless quality, buy the fucking album you fucking cheapskate! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, i feel the exact way you do. so it kind of reduces downloading to why its good v why its not so good, the two points you bring up are the main issues i think, and i agree with both of those points. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
at least with mp3 you have a kind of safeguard for the second option - the highest quality mp3 is basically never as good as the real thing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
although it's not a safeguard at all really, because most people can't hear the difference between a wav and a 128 k/s mp3 anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
for instance, i have the nin ep still as flac, but if you went out and tried to get the original you would have to buy a dvd as well, last i checked the whole darn thing was too expensive, so for these types of special releases, flac and downloading is the only way to fly, but for the new autechre coming out - i will definetly be buying it : ) |
||||||||

it's good cause I'm a fucking cheap bastard, so I get to steal from the artists I love, and eventually I can make it so they can't afford to make music anymore... cause I love them so much! |

a good example for me is this.. I love Kate Bush's's's music as you might know and a few years ago her recordcompany released a boxed set called "This woman's work" which contains all her cd's to that date (which are about 5 or 6, I think) and two exclusive cd's with all her b-sides, remixes and other rare stuff. these are not available seperately. this set costs about 140 euro's. I'm am NOT going to buy all the albums AGAIN (for a higher price then when I would buy them individually) just to have those two cd's. my brother works in a recordstore and they have the boxed set there so I already said he should copy those cd's but he says he can't open the boxed set, he'll get in trouble. so I found a couple of torrents for the flacced versions of those two cd's. which ofcourse don't work. :( |

|
|
I buy way more music now that I can download it first to see if I like it or not. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a bad example and i do intend to buy it, would be plaid's rest proof clockwork, but i have all intentions of the purchase |
||||||||

gotta keep it moving somehow |
