wow.
great post today.

interview ran just fine for me.
i was wondering about the little (3) there... people have asked me to get into my account to nick them for free so i suppose it makes sense.

[COLOR=Indigo]Dubman, i've got the (3) too, and i'm pretty sure no one else but me has dled, and i dled only once. So must mean something else.
You should tell people to BUY the downloads and not let them leech :P

Re: Underworldlive version 3.0 thread
 
Techno_Bunny, the 3 means you can download that file three more times using your account. And 3 extra downloads is all you get. So it seems dubman's been on good behavior. :)

My question is what does the "+" mean next to the Misterons Mix?

Why can't I download a digital item from my user page?

Each time you purchase a digital product from us you get three chances to download it. If you have exceeded three downloads on any given product, you will no longer be able to download it. Most Digital Service Providers only allow one download per purchase. We aim to be a little more flexible and accommodating than that! Next to each purchased digital product displayed on your user page, you will see a number - this is the number of downloads you have remaining.

i only downloaded LBT once. shouldn't i have remainders?

or is this a policy put in place recently? i can't remember the last time i did anything over there. it's been.... well probably since LBT.

Re: Underworldlive version 3.0 thread
 
When there was still UWlive v1 there were no restrictions of this kind. You could download your RiverRuns as many times as you wanted.

But now it's different. Reminds me of that crappy Bioshock protection. That's why I did not buy Bioshock, and if I wasn't a fanboy I surely would not buy any more RiverRuns.
IMO any restriction of this kind is DRM and thus unacceptable.
Look what happened in the past: The Big Sister package was encoded in the wrong way when it was released the first time (48000 Hz, 160 kbps). A few hours later it was replaced by the proper version. And if that wasn't enough some time later it was replaced again by another repack. I've got three different repacks of Big Sister.
LBT has two different versions, one with a somewhat higher resolution artwork.

What if something like that happens with the next digital item? Do I lose a download if I get a wrongly encoded version like what happened with Big Sister?

Were there problems with the old system? Was it abused?

if u have missing downloads pls 'pm' me, its not hard to look u up on the account server. there was a lot to migrate, so some things may have sliped though.

jan; not sure i understand you, u can download the file and do whatever u like with it. old site was becoming a hosting server for fake accounts, not ideal. this way we can bring u more stuff with the bandwidth we have. the counter only reduced when the file is fully downloaded. i'll look into the repacking thing, that shouldnt happen anyway.

the '+' means unlimited downloads.

i don't see what the fuzz is all about... just download it and *backup* it at your place:
- burn a CD of it (remember: *no* DRM)
- store it on your harddrive
- archive it with your other backups

i don't need another LBT download, i'm just curious about the status of my account.

that, and also, i just dont get all of this complaining on face value. to call an allotment of three downloads equivalent to DRM and unacceptable would sound like an invitation for me to tell you to take a hike if i were running this thing. DRM places major restrictions on the mp3 itself, this is only restrictions on the site because i'm sure people who arent you and me and other dirts were letting their internet buddies just use their account or just set up ghost accounts for mass abuse. so no, it's not DRM. secondly i cant think of too many places that let you download more than one copy of what you bought. third why would you ever need to have unlimited downloads? assuming most of us have it, that THREE chances to back up. demanding that the well is endless or youre throwing a fit is just bratty.

and fourth wtf was all that nonsense concerning the encoded stuff? OBVIOUSLY if something screws up it's not going to count against a download.

bah!

Yeah, you're probably right... I was taking this "what if?" thinking a little too far.
Sorry for sounding 'bratty'. :D

patrick 10-28-2007 11:03 AM

Re: Underworldlive version 3.0 thread
 
agreed... i think it makes perfect sense to try and restrict the re-download affect... when it is too easy one would just download it again instead of using another method to move it (say downloading a track again at work instead of bringing it on a jump drive/ipod)

TheBang 10-28-2007 04:21 PM

Re: Underworldlive version 3.0 thread
 
I have to agree. The 3 download rule seems reasonable for 99% of legitimate accounts, and if you really have a valid reason for more than 3 downloads, I'm sure you can use the contact method provided on the site to request another one.

Seconded! It's great that the member section is back and the shop is evolving. Thanks aNt for clearing out the old and working the new. I look forward to the return (?) of the live archives (esp. to complete the Moscow gig!)

The phone video in the member's section is ace. Their dog is a video star. As for the Beautiful Burnout Remix...I hope this song gets a physical release for DJs to play. I can picture the crowd going mental at the chugging beat.

-Jason



-ps- Maybe Rick and Karl will try to record their dog for placement in a song ala Pink Floyd did with 'Seamus' or 'Mademoiselle Nobs'. :cool:

yeah, cool minimalist remix there! And I think the next official underworld music video should star Barney the dalmation as main talent :)

Re: Underworldlive version 3.0 thread
 
they're messing with their quicktime vids so i cant download the mov and convert to mp3 like i usually do.
right when they release bamboo and this rmx too

feh.

King of Snake 11-15-2007 02:31 AM

Re: Underworldlive version 3.0 thread
 
well you could always try and record the audio in something like Audacity.
Not sure why they're making everything as streaming, non-downloadable quicktimes though, it's kind of annoying to have to jump trough hoops in order to save something. Surely this is a waste of everyone's bandwith as every time we wanna listen to something again we have to stream it from the site.

TheBang 11-15-2007 03:20 AM

Re: Underworldlive version 3.0 thread
 
Maybe they're trying to save their own bandwidth. Remember when they posted the Moscow Rez/Cowgirl video, and it brought down the server for days?

It seems like they have carte blanche through their Apple QuickTime arrangement, so streaming it through Akamai gives them unlimited bandwidth.

gaborez 11-15-2007 03:26 AM

this is a fucking brilliant mix :)
i fucking love these guys. sorry for the language - am having a bit of a large moment!

Great to hear Underworld doing their own remixes again, and this one has that epic never-ending feel that I miss so much from the Dark & Long days.

Ten minutes of pure bliss! I've always thought it strange that the band, who take such pride and pleasure in reworking their tracks constantly live, stopped doing their own mixes, especially as they do it so much better than anyone else.

It would be a real shame if this mix didn't get a release, this one needs to be heard at 3am on an empty motorway.

yeah ok, I guess it's not streaming trough their own site. Still sucks though. I've been trying to somehow donwload the source .mov but it seems impossible. I can get the correct url by opening the ref qt in a texteditor but if I put that into my browser it's still not downloading.
So I guess the only way is to actually record the audio trough an external program.
