Re: Seems kind of slippery-slopey...

So then you see no validity to the observation that once a "health"-inspired law is passed, the same people move on to the next item to battle, and then the next? How exactly is making that...

Re: True Blood

The wife and I did. It took me a couple episodes to buy the premise of the whole world they were creating, but once I got into it, I really enjoyed it. It's entertaining in a good production...

Re: Watchmen

It'll be geared towards the whole family. It's all about the "four quadrants" these days (a phrase that makes my skin crawl), so it really will be something that appeals to a broad spectrum of ages. ...

Re: New album or RiverRun

Because of all the random releases of remixes and such that you could only get if you purchased a Japan itunes card through a false Japanese address...or only if you bought all the digital releases...

Re: Seems kind of slippery-slopey...

I fully expect this to happen some day.

I really do want to hear from people who feel that the fear of a healthy food slippery slope is unfounded. I've always leaned towards the slippery slope...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

The advertising approach is making the video available only on youtube. You can't download it to watch it any where any time like you could if you had it on a dvd. It's also only available on youtube...

Re: recent purchases, downloads, etc.

Dubxanne - The Police In Dub - not every single track is a winner, but definitely a worthwhile purchase in my opinion

Tom Middleton - Renaissance 3D - great 3 disc compilation of tracks

Pretty...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

Aside from being exciting to see (thanks for the link :D) I think it actually is relevant. The Monty Python approach in this case is a great way to use how the internet is evolving as an advertising...

Seems kind of slippery-slopey...

The war for healthiness in food is continuing. The new target is salt (http://wcbstv.com/politics/bloomberg.war.on.2.920343.html):

Singer Jimmy Buffett will never find his "lost shaker of salt" in...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

Of course it applies. Lost sales = lost money. Lost money = hurt artist.

Providing a digital file may not require the same cost as the actual pressing of a physical cd, but the creation and...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

Ah - but what you fail to acknowledge is that the rampant free downloading is a direct result of the ease of stealing the files. No, it may not directly reflect the specific number of lost sales, but...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

RTSR only shares non-commercially available material, so it doesn't take a single penny out of the pockets of the artist. I don't know if it's technically legal or not, but the RTSR is run openly so...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

I do absolutely acknowledge that performance and merchandising are huge aspects of an artist's income. I never meant to imply any different. But if you're an independent artist, or just trying to get...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

It needs to be restrictive enough that it stops people from stealing the work of musicians.

Listening to a preview is one thing. But if you then walked out of the CD store with CDs you didn't pay...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

I'm fully in agreement with you that this is too extreme.

I wasn't actually presenting that as a literal and 100% accurate hypothetical. My point is simply that very few people could afford to do...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

There's no debate as far as I'm concerned. Enforce reasonable laws against the people who illegally share music files. But to pretend that stealing music from an artist hurts no one is ignorance at...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

I haven't got an issue with technology - I have an issue with selfish and thoughtless behaviour, which is exactly what stealing someone's music and making it available for free is. Not to mention the...

Re: The beginning of the end for P2Ps/Torrent Sites?

I have mixed feelings about this stuff. While being able to easily share files is incredibly convenient and fun when used responsibly, it's also being abused to a level that really hurts some people....

Re: Watchmen

No, I work on the character animation projects rather than the effects driven ones. So I've managed to avoid all the wiener-mation that's happened here from Hollow Man to Watchmen. As of a few months...
