Re: Beatport

just curious...what did you guys do when you had to buy vinyl and actually had to track stuff down?

True. I used to love going into Neptune records in tampa and spend hours hunting through the pile. It was like the only store you could smoke in while you shopped. They would always be blasting the newest shit over the system, or handing you some of the newer records that they thought you would like. good times

Re: Beatport

^^Thats the best.. My friend used to own a record shop..Every week when I would get there, he would have a stack of new releases for me. Those were the days

Re: Beatport

Geez, granted it does suck when they pull the territory
crap on ya, blame the music companies, rights don't always
transfer across oceans, secondly there is so much music
available today, missing out on one or two tracks is not
going to be cause for mortal thoughts. As for ripping off tracks
you only hurt the dance music scene, at least it's 2 or 3 bucks
instead of 12.50 US with 8 dollars in shipping, furthermore
the affordability (maybe not for everyone) has allowed myself
to explore other genres of dance music and work them into
mixes. Why be bitter?

Well let's see... the lasrgest minority is the US are latinos, out of ALL latinos here most of them are Mexican... See what I'm getting at? So YES this country has a lot of brainless assholes.

If you can dish it out, I hope you can also take it.

that WAS great.. leaving 100 plus dollars poorer sucked though.. long live downloads!

Re: Beatport

^^That was the downside...I was broke all the time..I was buying about 30 records @ $9-$10 each every week. It was a a good addiction though. I now have a nice collection that I never play(All Mp3 now).... I am buying a nice shelf for them, and I will remember the memories they brought me for a long long time.

Re: Beatport

You should not blame beatport. You should blame the record labels. I have found many of the same tracks by searching by the artist name, track name, remix artist, etc. You can also just purchase from another site, this was mentioned above. Yes it is very frustrating when you find a track and you can not buy it, but it is not over. You just got to grab it from another music site.

Re: Beatport

like dom said its not beatports fault its record labels and licencing laws etc

tbh it doesnt really bother me unless i really REALLY want a song, usually the same song is rereleased on another label who has the rights to sell it in other countries, fuck things like slsk, hate it, u should be patient and also shop around for what ur looking for, beatport isnt the only place u can buy online, 9 times out of 10 u can buy direct from the labels own webpage

LOL... and I'm an american latino.

Defenitely there are several other sites to venture out to not just BeatPort. It is a pain in the ass to be denied a purchase, just like being denied a green card, but don't sweat it. Give someone else your money or resort to Soulseek or Lime Wire.

of course I can take It...i take it for both ways actually im American and Mexican LOL

anyways, the point here is that why the hell do they put tracks there that you cant buy, its stupid...can they filter by IP address or something, and it happens constantly..this is like the 4th time it's happened to me.

Re: Beatport

And yes, they can filter your IP, isn't so hard to do.

Re: Beatport

lol, another thing came to my mind...can I file a lawsuit for false advertisement? cause that's what it is, is it?

i've read sooo many articles about stupid lawsuits in the US that I might join the club.

lol

how does $10,000 sound?

LMAO

Re: Beatport

I wouldn't go for a carreer as a stand up comedian, so yeah, why not file a lawsuit
