Re: (TV) Discussing and trading bootlegs on the list

i think that (your objections) may be less true than they were before.  fact
is, it seems like nobody keeps a trade list anymore, or trades via mail...i
miss it, a bit!  but it's all about the BT sites now.
 
remember the good old days, where we managed elaborate distribution chains via
television-group?  what fun we had!  (and what long waits!)

All,

I'm not opposed to discussing bootlegs and other unauthorized recordings on
the
list. That's fine. If people refer to a recording available on a popular
Torrent
site somewhere, that's fine, too. If people want to debate the sound quality
of
certain circulating recordings vs. others, I can live with that.

What I'm not as excited about is the inevitable slide towards people posting
their trade lists on the list. That gets noisy (lots of bandwidth), fast, and
tends to make the list less interesting for people reading it (too much
deleting, not enough reading).

But I'm open to counterarguments. I certainly have no philosophical objection,
as long as any actual trades are off-list.

What do other people think?

--Phil

Scott,
Everything else being equal, I'd actually prefer it if the MM List
allowed exchanging trade lists or detailed recording information of
Television bootlegs. By asking that any reply(s) be sent off-List I
was just trying to adhere to the 'rules' the List's founding father,
Philip, set up.

Dennis,
RE:  >Is this definitely Tom's place?
No evidence at all (except it's certainly decrepit looking enough).
I was just goofing .... and that's why I said the gigantic,
rectangular basin was filled with ice cubes .... because the last thing
you'd ever want/need in a freezin' apartment would be ice.
