Guest conoley Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I am leaning towards No - at least/especially for pre-releases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobe Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I'm not one to usually DL albums, but I'll admit to looking for this now. I must note that I've preordered it on LP and the CD/DVD combo already as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benchwarmer Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 you know, I don't really have a problem with D/L things when I buy them on vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest conoley Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Yeah I download all the time, especially when I buy so much vinyl. But I don't like pre-releases being leaked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brennan Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 this should probably a board rule one way or the other. file sharing yes or no. although technically that was just a link to another board linking it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steventangent Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I wish record companies across the board would give you download codes, like Sub Pop, Saddle Creek, etc do. I don't see it happening much though, just because vinyl is often put out by different labels than the CD version is on. When labels do it in-house, they should provide download codes. No matter how you look at it or try to justify it, downloading an album is just as illegal if you own the vinyl as if you don't. Still, I don't blame people for doing it.

flood Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 im pretty sure they can't sue you for downloading a record that you own a physical copy of, i own pretty complete discographys of all of my favorite bands, and ive been downloading them to save me the hassle of having to rip all of them from either cd or vinyl.

brennan Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 yah im pretty sure its not illegal either. you are allowed to have your songs backed up on your computer or whatever... you own the right to that song if you own it on vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brennan Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 hmm well i want to know what it means. although if i follow conoley's example it will come to me in a few seconds im thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest conoley Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 "Quoted for truth." Either that or "Quit Friggin talking." Normally with me, people mean the later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply not true. Not even close to true. Besides, how would the RIAA know that you have a copy on vinyl before you get a letter from their lawyers? yah im pretty sure its not illegal either. you are allowed to have your songs backed up on your computer or whatever... you own the right to that song if you own it on vinyl. It is a civil tort. It's copyright infringement. You don't ever own the rights to any songs. You may rip songs from your own media onto your computer, but file trading is still verboten.

Simply not true. Not even close to true. Besides, how would the RIAA know that you have a copy on vinyl before you get a letter from their lawyers? how they can sue you for posessing files that you have purchased a licensing agreement to posess? When microsoft does an audit, they don't care where installed files came from, just as long as you have paid for the copy installed on your machine.

brennan Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 now i could be wrong here but isnt that how they justify letting any copyrighted files be on the internet legally... to download files that you have a licensed agreement to posses.

Guest Admin Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I would prefer it if the vinyl collective messageboard did not become a forum for album leaks. I realize that album leaks happen for every release no matter what rules get established in this forum, but I don't want to encourage it. As a small label owner, I know that file-sharing has affected my business. As a vinyl collector, I realize that people should not be expected to buy two copies of an album in multiple formats. I guess I find myself in the middle of the argument. We have been trying to get the ok's from labels about putting download codes into our vinyl, but so far, we have gotten all negatives. We plan to put download codes into our own vinyl releases. I know that people are going to download the new Against Me, but please don't make Vinyl Collective a portal for file-sharing.

brennan Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 so basically what you're saying is no file sharing unless you own the rights to something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
