I happen to trade with Pedro all the time and have seen his sickening
collection with my own eyes. I guarantee he consumes more music than most on
this list, apart from that he is a connoisseur of diverse styles of music
with such taste that is unbelievable. He does not own one shitty record and
if he did he would give it away or trade it with someone who could
appreciate it more. I seen him drive hours to salvage some stupid family
throwing the collection that in turn had so many miles Davis, Billy Holiday
records and other giants, what good could they have done in a garbage.Yes he
posted all these things he wants, but besides from the people on this list
who else could even name all these labels and artists in one shot.
Besides i doubt that you are a saint yourself, probably on napster everyday
or so. Don't throw stones if you have sinned before, in other words shut
your trap. How is he supposed to listen to all those vinyl records in his
car while he goes to work. Let's do the math you can't speed dub a record ,
so let say a 1 hour recordings times 7,000 or more= 7000 hours /24 hour =
291 days of recording your stuff into a transportable format. I know i as
an artist would not mind if he has a bootleg CD of my work if he already
bought the freakin vinyl copy.
I stress let's talk about music trade information(which includes cd's) and
stop dissing moral beliefs of us music junkies.
Napster has 50,000,000 users are they all insane, are they crooks. Let's
face people that use napster are music fiends and the people who don't use
it is because music is not a priority in their lives.
Let the trading resume!
