However, with your music blog, the things I find most interesting are rarities by bands from which I already have a lot of music. Examples? For instance, you posted Joy Divison songs that are not on the Heart and Soul box (which I have). Or REM songs that are not on Murmur (which I have already purchased twice: once the cd, and later a reissue with bonus tracks). Or, recently, the mix of 'Double Nickels on the Dime' wich is different to the CD I purchased years ago.<br />And, apart from that 'Double Nickels' version, those songs are not for sale, as fas as I know. If some of the JD or NO stuff you posted were available, I would purchase that.Just8https://www.blogger.com/profile/15797732994311292729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155039173386175412.post-89471802169967061032010-05-05T00:28:31.659-04:002010-05-05T00:28:31.659-04:00Music Archivist--

Just makes the Records labels Lazy it also take's away jobs from a lot of people <br /><br />2. there is no customer protection Example:<br />if you say you Order a Itunes Pre Release Album From Say (New Order) and it has exclusive tracks<br />then like not even 10 mins after you get your album you hard drive takes a dump. <br /><br />Itunes will not let you get your tracks again unless you pay for them and if the exclusive tracks are gone there gone you will not be able to get them again after a certain time <br /><br />plus i feel that paying the same price for a non physical album is total BS. <br /><br />The label does not have to pay anybody to print a cd or some guy to stand in front of Cover printer or put jewel cases together or have to pay for packing And shipping Or Fuel And so forth so the label pockets all the cash that once went into the cost of manufacturing and paying employees <br /><br />Example (Warner Bros) main record offices in Burbank is a ghosttown now<br />cant even call a front desk operator now <br /><br />Promotions dept went from 45 people down to one or 2 to handle 7 labels <br /><br />now i have been reading the the debate with Mr. Cook.<br /><br />and i agree why would you dl music via blogs torrents or any P2P server?<br /><br />Well its a 2 edged sword you cant win either way mr cook is angry that his label's music is being put on the net for free.Hence he and his artist are losing capitol. <br /><br />The Fans are frustrated that they cant find cds in record stores or are tired of paying exuberant amount of money for cd that should be stocked hence nobody wants to pay 100.00 for a 9.00 cd (Example new record store days singles <br />being sold for crazy amounts of money by scum bags who don't even like the music itself) <br /><br />And there is alot of things labels do not tell you <br /><br />they don't tell you that pirating is a very small amount of the labels losing money.<br />They don't tell you that used cds killed alot of sales and that people are tired of buying re pressings of the same shit with 1 or 2 new tracks or buying 7 different formats to get all the mixes for there collections.<br /><br />Or People starting there own labels because they haven't been paid there royalties or being taken for ride and promised certain things that have never met.<br /><br />or not willing to put out there style of music puff daddy and few others to name a few <br /><br />there so much more behind the door that we dont know <br /><br />but instead of getting angry at he fans for trying to connect with there new or favorite or even lost music try meeting the demand <br /><br />Print up some cds to order so there is no over stock do mail order from your office do a box set why sit on all the artists complete catalogs if it not making any money both parties would be happy hence the Downloading would slow to crawl <br /><br />people could enjoy the music and the label would make some cash <br /><br />Seeing by your Facebook Profile Mr.Cook you like to eat (photos of food)Music Archivisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04926369273709251946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155039173386175412.post-55321773300100122862010-05-03T00:31:32.243-04:002010-05-03T00:31:32.243-04:00I'm allowed to poke fun at Slint, being from K...I'm allowed to poke fun at Slint, being from Kentucky and all.

Means the web is my only source of music. And buying mp3's I already have is a step too far for me. While in my home country I'll pick up some discs. Some of which I probably will have downloaded already, but I'll want the discs for my collection nonetheless.
