think not sir adam. i'd be satisfied with a double CD with groups from various labels and styles. not just skam-ish or mego-ish. i don't need help nor am i looking for help in obtaining all the MASK tracks. my 'debate' so to speak is about the ethics involved in burning (for free) out of print material that would of otherwise been of no profit to the label or artist. not bootlegs or whatever that people would sell over the internet. i send so and so a CDR in a bubblepack with $1.00. they burn <place label name here> #00P (out of print forever and always..) to CDR and re-use the bubblepack i sent them and the $1.00 for postage. done deal. if the label wants to get all pissy, well, that's their right. (ethically and legally) how about a 'stop your bitching' 2CD release in cooperation by any label reps or artists who happen to be reading any of these threads. (a 'proper' and legal release with copyright clearance..) no 'fancy' packaging, braille, hand written messages or funky colored CDs. save the money on pressing the actual material. just an idea. an idea so great, i posted it to this list. up next: SKAM limited baseball caps. punish your machine, christian -- " Old Fashioned Technology in Newly Fashioned Ways...
