If anyone else wants this soapbox, go ahead. I'm had my say.  |
Yeah I agree it can seem wrong not to share. And anything i've gotten from say a torrent site, I would share with anyone (Although I do feel that theres a lot of torrent stuff being shared that has gone against the seeders wishes. As in not sharing as flacs source etc, i've seen a lot of these circulating as mp3s. Other stuff is more personal either to me or the person who recorded it or what ever they did to it.
A lot of time and effort and even money goes into sharing freely.
Thats the trouble though, there's no credit given that i could see on Ross's site. And to try and sell me my own files takes the biscuit
