I love to skim though (I don't count that as 'reading'). <br /><br />I'd be interested in seeing suggestions - possibly with a hand-picked set of your favorite tracks from whatever album available to stream. That would probably keep me coming back to the blog and if you could link to an independent vendor with FLAC/CD's for sale that would be great. <br /><br />The above doesn't work for albums that people have ripped by users for sharing though. Lot's of those 24/96 vinyl rips - I hope it doesn't mean the end of those.J-Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13301886257216295479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7601536791094593042.post-90281406291698220352012-02-06T10:06:03.463-08:002012-02-06T10:06:03.463-08:00Why learn japanese?

Before that I came quite often and heard some great music I never heard before or only heard of (and I went out and bought some of this stuff), and also some albums that I have on vinyl but not on CD, so this was a good chance to "digitalize" them.<br />Maybe it would be good to wait some time, maybe a few weeks, to see what happens and which file hosts survive. <br />But I really hope that you find the time to replace the lost MU links with others that are and remain available. For me, this would be more important than new postings. I mean, you would not have to replace the information part of the blog ;-) <br />Anyway, thanks for your site.whsonichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08582903547437182555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7601536791094593042.post-15195630855069822362012-01-28T14:31:15.663-08:002012-01-28T14:31:15.663-08:00I just started visiting here recently but I enjoye...I just started visiting here recently but I enjoyed your posts over there in the plastic world. I'd take Bedlam and other's advice and maybe step away for a while, do some sorting out. Take walks through the park, occasionally gazing up at the sun. Depending on you, this could take over real quick and make you reclusive. Maybe just put all your music posts in draft for now but leave the blog up. Let us know your plans some time in the future.<br /><br />I don't think this is the end of file sharing. I think this will filter out some of the less desirables, meaning posters and hosters. It was unfortunate that me and many others lost their files and some money. MU needed to go, though. Fileserve needs to go. Maybe some people will get smarter about uploading and not have their archives clearly titled as to what they are. Passwords, encryption are good too.<br /><br />Anyway, good luck.scarfish69https://www.blogger.com/profile/04295807514109926359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7601536791094593042.post-21082664722345554622012-01-28T10:32:58.819-08:002012-01-28T10:32:58.819-08:00sorry but i think you are the devilsorry but i think you are the devilAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7601536791094593042.post-8879700169230982412012-01-28T10:13:42.506-08:002012-01-28T10:13:42.506-08:00HansofHolland says: I dare say that the fact that ...HansofHolland says: I dare say that the fact that I could download music to get to know it, was half of the fun visiting various blogs.

The dl's were great, but if that side slips beneath the waves, I for one would be happy to keep returning to read your great little mini-essays. Then I'd dig through my records to see if I still have what you're writing about!<br /><br />So, when you aren't out hitting the dating scene, toss out a review or two and post them.

I don't know how much they had to upload, nor do I know what the exact rewards were. I never heard about this until the whole takedown. I used megaupload for a long time and I never received any rewards, nor was it any sort of incentive for me to post there. It was simply a reliable service. <br /><br />Some dick used to come to my former blog on a regular basis and post about us on twitter accusing us of "cashing in".

I've had to walk this path myself and used my work as a mask. Took me a while to realize it and step back, eventully quitting and going someplace where I made less but had more time for me. I'm not rich, but MUCH happier. I wish you the best on whatever you decide to do and good luck. If you do post, I'll definitely read but it might be better for you if we didn't see you for a while - if you catch my drift.
