Beatport

Re: Beatport

You know what's weird - I wanted to use Cicada's song Elle et Moi for a school project last fall. Beatport wouldn't let me buy it because of the territory thing, so I bought it from the iTunes store without any problems.

Re: Beatport

I don't understand it either. I know why they SAY they do it. But hell when people sold vinyl all the time. I never heard of these restrictions, But those tracks that you really wanted, you usually had to pay more for because they were on labels that didn't ship much to the states.

Re: Beatport

I've heard it is possible to use a proxy to let beatport add these location restricted tracks to your cart.

If you google it you can find some good info about it.

Re: Beatport

If anything, you should sue beatport for selling that goddamn accordion song

Re: Beatport

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

Re: Beatport

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
