A Suggestion

Botfly · 04-09-2007, 01:43 PM

I want to know what you guys would think/if it'd be ok to perhaps establish a music exchange system via yousendit/megaupload/rapidshare. The way it'd work is zip up or archive a particular album with for example WinRAR, upload to one of aforementioned websites and post a link to the file to share with the community so they could download it.

In fact, it doesn't have to be limited to just music, we could exchange ROMS or something as well. And just in case of legal issues, put up a 24 hour disclaimer stating that keeping files for longer than 24 hours is illegal and should be deleted within that period of time.

I think it would be a good idea because it would create a more knowledgable community and probably increase the over all activity on these boards.

There are sites for that already. No need for it here.

Also, legalities.

Well figured some folks here might have some obscure "gems" (be it music or whatever else) which are probably exceptionally difficult to find anywhere else. Oh wellz ~~ it was worth a shot

Just want to point out that there is no legal precident for this; someone just made it up. Much like the rule that, if food has touched the ground for five seconds or less, it is still safe for consumption.

^ THAT'S NOT TRUE?!

*Throws up*

Are you vomitting because of the five-second rule or the 24-hour rule?

^Both, I assume.
