Beergut:
Bloody cheeky bugger, and not a mention of where it came from. I've a good mind to give him a verbal lashing. Oops; I already have!

Skids:
check the barcode out on the artwork ;)



just sh1ts me...its not so bad (but still sux) after i've posted it on the blog

stranded:
I guess unfortunately that's the way it is, and other Bloggs will continue ripping from other Bloggs. But it's good karma, so he says.  ???


"The sole purpose of this blog is to share music. The essence of karma is the unconditional and selfless act of giving. I encourage all responses to what goes on in this blog whether they are complimentary or negative. I will also exhibit my right of reply."

"I've had a couple of negative responses of late, from the 'e police' and the obligatory 'Anonymous' expressing their dislike for me 'leeching' and 'stealing' music...... all of the music on this blog can be readily found on countless sites across the net .... I see it as sharing, the giving without the expectation of reward. As far as the artists are concerned they receive a minuscule amount for each unit sold, the main financial gain for bands are merchandise sales and ticket sales for live shows ... blog spots are promoting their music to people who otherwise would never hear it."     Get him!

Skids, just continue posting mate. It would be a shame to see it go.

Nice one Beergut!  ;D

Beergut:
Sharing the music is great, and the more blogs sharing music the better. But you just don't go and copy an entire post and claim it as your own! You ALWAYS give credit where it's due, and thanks where you can.

You just have to look through Ausrock to find countless examples of where we've given credit to other blogs, sites or individuals for the music we put up. We shamelessly pinch stuff from Midoztouch, and Slade's blog, among others, but we ALWAYS mention these sources.

What could have been a great collaboration between these two sites has turned to cr@p because of the shortsighted actions of this rather foolish individual. And now he has egg on his face.... I notice a few familiar posters over there. I just wonder what they think of someone claiming the credit for stuff that isn't his....

Hector McFreckle:
Yeah, it doesn't take much effort to give the original uploader credit, nor does it take long to thank someone if you're taking something.

I just checked out this site (Mad parade) for the first time and posted this comment in the 21 Guns thread:-
 
"Thanks for this Skids, and for various other posts amongst this blog!"

Not that it matters, he'll probably delete my post anyway. :D
