its all this yang going on about napster, but these marks from rns and apc etc are rippin full albums weekly and you dont hear shit about it.

i dont even understand their purpose? do they get paid for it? probably not.

i dont care so much about big, high profile, major label releases but when they rip independent shit or albums that are counting on every sale its really messed up.

so fuck em

Its like if you have a store and they are just walking out the store with your merchandise and never paid for it. It's really not right.

Man, Dude Sent Me The Link, I Told Him I Always Support Artists If I Download Their Stuff, And Buy The Real Thing, And He Said "Why?"...


Dudes Just Straight Distributing For Free, That's Wild. He Don't Even Want People To Buy The Real Album.

This is not an Independant release Mr Loc, so it doesnt really matter THAT much..

It doesn't matter if it is a big release or underground release, they spent money, time, blood, sweat and tears working on that album. If this keeps going on alot of artists may say "Hey I got enough money, why lose more money making an album for my fans". Cause afterall they do it for fans and because they love it. If your fans, or customers start stealing from you you don't wanna make another album.

1) i didnt say it was Mr Correctivitis, i said i dont like it when they do rip independent albums and

2) it does matter that much because kurupts albums dont sell that well so every sale is important.

When DR Ripped Snoop's Album On Their Site, Dre Stated That That Shit Makes Him NOt Want To Record.  So, If It Keeps Up, Our Best Artists Ain't Gonna Want To Do It Anymore...

Whenever They're Spending All Their Time Trying To Protect Their Songs, That Hurts Art...

with the death of napster alot less albums get distributed thru the net what is the bigger problem is 1 person buying the cd then copying it 4 their friends

If you haven't realized, artists like Kururpt, Daz, and all them, could give a fuck about the fans...They only do it for the money, that's why Space Boogie is gunna be more Pop...I spoke with the guy who works for Arista, and he said Kurupt made it more Pop, like TRL type of shit, so it would go platinum...

You must of not understood me when I said that I meant they make music for the fans and because they, the artists love to make the music. Stop trying to use my words to say what you want it to say.

I'm sick of you guys bitching about bootlegging albums

*goes to download new kurupt*

Post by: Don Seer on June 29, 2001, 01:49:35 PM
the problem its this - if the album is dope - the shit gets hyped before release.... if not --- it gets a bad reputation before it drops

nobody takes risks buying albums anymore... i havent bought a wack album for ages now

its consumer power/try before you buy gone crazy
