Goldenchild Audio Bhangra Voices 2 Folk Edition WAV-MAGNETRiXX

And the fact AudioZ posters keep using UL and RG is also because a lot of people from the community are just perfectly fine with that choice. And even if you disagree about the servers choice, it doesn't give you the right to be rude against someone that is posting some free stuff, period.

If you don't like the fact AudioZ is using UL and RG, well, open your own thread on the forum to cry out loud about that and people will comment about it. But here, it's just not the place.

You can have all opinion you want, but it doesn't give you any right to be disrespectful to someone by insulting and using some f-word. And if you can't accept this simple rule and be polite with others, you should probably just leave this site and not interact with others and therefor not even reply to this comment.


PS: On a more realistic note, you are complaining about speed for a 123 MB freaking file (we're not talking about 70 GB library, but a 123 MB file). Even with a simple 10 MBps internet connection, it took me less than 2 min to download it from UL. So if you can't wait 2 min in your life to get something FREE, there's really something wrong.

You're certainly not the only one complaining because you know what they say about opinions. I'm going to speak for the AudioZ community and the stafff: Relax. I don't know how you think we owe you something, you get more than enough here so show some respect. How about instead of fulfilling all of your needs you think about one of someone else's for a moment.

I've been around since the very first days of the net and there is nothing further from the truth. Most teams cracked software not to share but as a challenge and preferred to keep it internally because they foresaw this exact situation. In fact the first people that didn't respect their desires and went around spreading their hard work everywhere were what amounted to traitors and caused this mess in the first place. How much have you uploaded here: "just because"? How much have any of you for that matter? Oh I see so these rules are meant for other people doing all the work. "Just because" went out with the advent of free sharing for everyone because it's not sustainable and there just aren't that many martyrs out there (nor should there be) In fact I am vehemently opposed to public sharing of warez. In my opinion this has caused the devolution of the human race and that can clearly be seen here practically everyday. Where once there was appreciation it has been replaced by demand. This ridiculously boring and transparent moral high ground conversation is just a front for your own greed so let's not make this about profiting off warez because it's not. Why this spoiled attitude is so prevalent in the audiowarez scene I'm not so sure because I certainly don't see any comments of this sort on any movie streaming sites, nobody bitching about monetizing that. You just want the end result which is your own excess. how it happens and all the work involved are not something even in the realm of your consideration. I'm going to start cracking down on these kinds of conversations because they're against our rules (yep the ones you never read), they add nothing, they change nothing and they simply create ill will towards the many people that do work here for free...people that have NOTHING to do with this in the first place. So don't be surprised if the how dare we not give you 20 more mirrors conversations disappear. We provide you with more mirrors than ANY other site and we also allow torrents now. When we feel there need to be adjustments made or rules need to be changed we will do that (I have already proposed my input on this matter) but until then no amount of whining and complaining will change that. And any other sites that you feel are doing this better, that luxury comes from the many contributors here so in the end a shitload of that content simply would not exist if it weren't for us. God forbid AudioZ disappears one day you will finally realize just how good you had it and regret all these kinds of comments.

First of all the spirit of the scene was to never share with the world so that is an irrelevant argument, how people convinced themselves that teams were initially in this to share is beyond me. The original warez scene didn't want everyone to have access and I have to say I agree with that line of thinking because not only does not everyone deserve the shares but most don't even appreciate them. It is simply wishful thinking and if you check some of their nfos you will find things like "don't spread to p2p, one day you will be the end of us all." Not only that but it took something that was under the radar and made it a huge social problem that is now ushering in a police state since so many people are involved it is like an epidemic. Then the monetization of warez is not a prolific minority but a prolific majority because there is no possible way to spread the wealth of content available without incentive. Even ratios on private torrent sites are a form of payment and a ridiculously unfair one at that because it's a zero-sum game. You can call it capitalism, what you're asking for is basically communism (which was unsuccessful for a reason, it doesn't account for human nature).

Mirrors aren't always locked even by Sunny, there are plenty of shares where he leaves them open and even provides better links for free users. Also what you don't take into account is that mirror locking is also a responsibility. Those that lock take it upon themselves to reup content when it is necessary. I guarantee you that if you replaced every link with Mega you would get a reup exactly never, nor would people even bother uploading all this content in the first place especially when it comes to 80 GB libraries. You're also somehow thinking that if we unlock mirrors then suddenly everyone is going to start uploading mirrors to Mega for huge libraries and that's never going to happen as can be seen by the many unlocked threads where surprise surprise...there are no fast mirrors. Also picture an example such as say Mural. When a team is releasing that, say MAGNETRiXX, they have to do a ton of work besides uploading including stripping the watermarks so it becomes more understandable why they would want to utilize this feature. In a way the product has become their work and took a large investment in time and money so they want to be compensated. Also the upload ties up some people's connection, for example my download speed is rendered useless when utilizing my full upload capacity because it's not asymmetric so in effect I can barely use my internet when uploading files here. So in essence I end up paying for a month of service yet not being able to even utilize it for myself.

Your assumption about a sharer leaving the community is incorrect. Not only that but if a sharer doesn't reup the content as per our silent agreement when they use that functionality the mirrors get unlocked by me or another staff member so that's a non-issue. Also there has NEVER EVER been a time when the only shares were from people that locked mirrors especially some people like Horsemen never do. With convenience you get what you pay for, there is no other area where people expect stuff that costs thousands of dollars for no investment at all. Spending around 20 bucks for 3 months of service (even less if you buy longer packages) and suddenly nothing is a problem. The price of one download alone say Mural or Waves for example pays for itself like 20 times over plus then these companies have money for infrastructure. If the whole scene suddenly switched over to Firedrive not only would it begin to slow to a crawl but they wouldn't even have the cash to reinvest. To me that is greed, people want everything for nothing. We rarely if ever package keygens separately so the situation you're describing where you have to wait an hour to download a keygen doesn't happen. We are more open to community input than practically anywhere I've ever been and we often have polls of one sort or other to allow you guys to shape your time here but when we don't offer a poll on a specific topic it is because this is what we can offer at the moment. We've had team meetings on this subject, I've given my input and we've come to some decisions about how we will proceed. I can't reveal the full extent of that meeting for a few reasons I can't get into here.

Anyway I appreciate the kind words, certainly a change from what I usually hear when people complain about this functionality. We do what we can, we can't always do what everyone wants and it's not because we don't care. First and foremost before I'm a moderator, I'm also a member here so believe me it would be nice to have options. We try to balance everyone's needs in the best way that we can and it's a delicate balance that at any moment can spell disaster for one thing or other so it's not always as clear cut as it may seem from where you sit.
