ive had a look and emailed a few freinds with chilled stuff on
there and no one has been informed . they are also selling some artists
tracks which the artists havent even named as such ? and dont exist . .
.very odd.Totally illegal use and my guess is its just a ripoff as some of
the stuff they are selling doesnt actually exist ! My suggestion is people
mail every forum they can and ask everyone on there to pass on an email to
everyone they can think of , word soon gets around.What amazes me is the
amount of web work that goes into this kind of site . . .
