For what we are about to receive....

Beergut:
Simply post a thankyou in the thread containing the download. If you need any examples, just look at some of the posts Hector has made. While he has appaling music tastes  ;D he always thanks whoever posted the album he just downloaded.

That works for blogs and forums like Ausrock, but torrent sites or eMule, Limewire etc. are a different story. I don't know how to say thanks there.

Forrykook:
Sorry, pardon my ignorance. Not quite sure what that means. When you find a post in ausrock blogspot how do you find the "thread"? Where do you go to write a message? I can't seem to find any such links.

Beergut:
Not sure what you mean either here. You press the reply button Forrykook. Just exactly like you have done to post in this thread. The "thread" is simply the topic you are viewing. Like this "thread" is called "For what we are about to recieve"

You find something you like and download it; hit reply at the same time and say thanks for the music. Believe me, it's simple! If you can post an "I don't understand"; you can post a "thanks!".

In the Ausrock blog, just post a comment.

Public torrents i wouldnt bother saying thanks, some of my torrents have been leeched 10's of thousands of times (then probably re-upped by someone else who knows how many times) and there aint not one single thanks.
The only thanks i have gotten is usually from the original person who requested it and a couple of others that may have grabbed it @ the original place i posted it before people or webspiders started whacking up my torrents all over the place and they take a life of there own. But thats thanks enough for me.

So in short i say this. if you grab it from someone via a forum/blog/private tracker or something say thanks, after all its more of a community, but if you grab it off a dumpsite like mininova/torrentspy/bt-chat or something then i wouldnt bother.

Yep; I'd agree wholeheartedly with that.

Cheers
