i have 22 hours of rdj on my computer. and i only have a 28.8 modem. is this really fucking sick? or is it normal? like, i dont know, tell me if you think it's ok or not. i'm kind of scared |

|
did you download all that with a 28.k modem??!??!?!!?!!?! thats dedication |
||||||||

Thats pretty sik m9. Read: there is other great music out there too. Best not to overdose on the RDJ when you could be spreading your horizons. |

get ADSL modem + connection. internet won't be as painful. |

yeh once you go to a fast connection u get impatient when it's slightly slower and it's agony when you use dialup. |

Do you actually own any AFX albums? or just MP3s... Guessing at the time it must have taken to dl all that, I'd have thought you could have saved yourself a lot of time & hassle by just buying em....I'm as guilty as the next man when it comes to MP3s etc but there's a lot to be said for resisting the urge to "download the world" & building a collection slowly.... Gives you time to enjoy the music when you haven't got 2000 tracks vying for your attention...I really wonder if you're kinda losing out in a way... |

i agree with jand in way. thats why i've started just buying vinyl. on the other hand there's this feeling of why not get all the music can for free. in the past 2monsth i've down loaded 1500 songs from soulseek. I even downloaded albums i already have just so i won't have to go get the cd if I'm at my computer. i'm not proud |

Well, I have a 56k connection and download probably one or 2 songs a week, and my collection is slowly building. It's not limited solely to RDJ but is mainly ambient/trance/techno. I find that downloading at this rate gives me a chance to thoroughly understand and enjoy every song I download, instead of downloading 50 songs a day and never getting around to listening to them. If you're going to pirate someone else's copyrighted music, you might as well do them justice and listen to the tracks... |
||||||||

yeh jand's right you just don't have time to listen to everything if you download all the time, i just keep writing em to a disk and forgetting about them! I have about 300 tunes that i havn't listened to properly. it sort of spoils it. i only have 56k i just leave it running when i go to bed |
||||||||

alright xlr=i have a second line jand=i buy what i can, most of the stuff i download is rare, i've purchased ...ICBYD, rdj album, come to daddy, druqks, saw 85-92, and classics. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the only albums i could buy that i've downloaded are saw][, 51/13, surfing on sine waves and window licker. the rest is stuff like, ab1-5, melodies from mars, promos, live stuff, caustic window, gak, powerpill, bradley strider. |

I've probably found about 20 BOC tracks on the net over the last month but today I actually bought myself a copy of MHTRTC , bloody fantastic I tell ya, I have most of the tracks on mp3 but the quality is alot more consistent than mp3 patchwork, it's also good to know that I might have put a few pennies in their pocket, damm well deserved if you ask me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i refuse to burn anyone any BoC, at least not a full album, i gave a friend a mix once, because if anyone deserves the money for it, they do. |

Zephyr Twin I know what you mean. I got 56k as well and it makes me very selective of what I take the time try or download. I have still download hundreds of tracks though. :) "fucking get dsl look at all the money saved from not buying cds" The best I can get where I live is through dial-up. I am sure most people using dial-up do it because it's the only thing available. |
