First post! Hey there...

So, yeah, what's up with you uber-leeching and never seeding back a byte of data there? Stop hitting and running, buddy! Open up and share back. Keep torrents open so people can get them back from you, or this site don't work...

So, playing bootlegs. First, set the mood. Get really drunk. Or stoned. Preferably stoned. But first, hook a computer up to a stereo, or get some good cans (headphones). Put yourself in the mindset that you're going to a show! You're gonna BE there, like it's happening now, again. I use Foobar2000 as my player. Load something cool up, and cast your mind back to the date of the show. It's a little like audio teleportation!

That's how I like to listen to "bootlegs"...

I hear that really whips the llama's ass.



Also - LMAO at the circlejerk above about ratio. 3.2gb/0gb is still divide by zero... but c'mon. My fios shits out 3 gb in an hour? He may be on shite dsl in Slovenia. Enjoy the tunes.


for the record:
Hot Licks > Speakers > Ears

Me too. I still burn some things to cd and dvd, but I don't listen to my stereo as much as I'd like and usually just listen on my computer. One addition that's made that more enjoyable is a desktop headphone amp. The one that I bought can have speakers hooked up to it, and I use it with speakers more than headphones. It adds a good amount of power and it's nice to have a volume knob that you can use instead of using a mouse.

Here's a link to it:

I listen to my stereo and car stereo more than my computer. That's why I still burn shows to CD.
