yeah i saw that commercial, but i dont get how they actually track people down. maybe if you're a Kazaa whore and you're dling 24/7. I just DL whatever new song comes out I like. I stopped DL'ing movies pretty much. takes too long, and I'd rather own the actual DVD.

1,243 singles after my file transfer from my old PC to my laptop yesterday in which i lost 2,894 mp3's in the process :mad:

however...ALL of my singles are segregated to their own folders by genre of music.

techno...trance...jungle...dance...country...oldie s...rap...ska...swing...themes...classic/soft rock...hardcore metal...comedies

as you can see i have a VERY eclectic taste in music :thumbup:

I'm a musician and i dont think dl'ing is bad either. CD's are way overpriced. Plus musicians make like 2 cents per cd. Thier money really comes from concerts and merch.

Your bro's band sounds awesome!
this is my band link (http://yearofconfession.com) we are playing in MA with them march 21th, small world

Hit the nail right on the head..but the record label is what is losing out...but wo gives a crap...they really dont need them anymore..lol...if you think about it you can schedule your own tours....record your own music, burn them onto a cd, sell your own cd's..what else is there...

Ska is kinda like early no doubt...real early....but its mostly bands with a horn section ( ie trumpet trombone) get thrown into this category

another band considered ska are Reel Big Fish

devils right about ska...you could also throw in the mighty mighty bosstones to name a more popular ska band back in the day.

jungle is like tchno and trance but with a "jungle" drum and bass sort of feel to it. comedies are as they say MP3's or george carlin, etc.

and FYI i listen to techno/trance ALOT :gap:

devilincelica
02-24-2004, 12:54 PM
i used to have mine all setup in catagories like that too...my comdey folder had george carlin, Celebrity jeopardy from SNL, Jerkey Boys and all junk of that nature for hours upon hours of laughter..lol

and let's not forget about "Less Than Jake" ;)


You guys have massive HD issuse me thinks. The reason why i have that many mp3's is not cuz I've been running the same computer forever with zero problems (I wish). It's cuz whenever i hit 700MB of music I burn that puppy onto a CD. ****, I have at least 15 MP3 CD's. :chuckles:
