Re: Can 'audio watermarks' be banned...?
I'm not a taper nor someone who does remasters. However, I probably speak for the majority of the live music collecting population when I say I download/trade music because I like the music; not because of who taped it or remastered it. There's a big difference between listening to music because I like Yes (and some anonymous internet person did a good job of cleaning it up) and downloading a recording because some anonymous internet person does a great job of cleaning up live recordings that happen to be Yes.
Bottom line; I choose to collect certain recordings because I like their music. I look for the best versions I can find. If that isn't you, it will be someone else. And my life won't change a bit. I'd prefer people keep their names off of recordings they had no hand in making.

You don't like TooleMan's work, don't download it. He stated his case in the description. TooleMan was upfront about it. IF he had just threw it out there with no warning that would be different, now wouldn't it, Five?

Re: Can 'audio watermarks' be banned...?
because there's only one person on earth who would do this!
by your logic we might as well add a rule that you are not allowed to include any exe file inside your torrents as it makes us suspicious of viruses. this is not like dime where the conversation is very short. ttd is also a message board where we bash it out and relate with one another. we have to get toole in here everybody can let him know how they feel about this. maybe he can explain it all to us and at the end we'll all have a group hug and say "freezer was right, he knew all along and we were so blind". you never know until you try.

Every uncirculating master of mine will now come with freshly added watermarks, OK? Suck 'em down or don't and see if I care.

Re: Can 'audio watermarks' be banned...?
I'm not 'demanding' anything.
I asked - if anyone had a clean copy, could they upload it here. Do you read that as a 'demand'? Why is it 'effing ridiculous' that I started this thread to discuss it before waiting to see if anyone had a clean copy? How long should I have waited? Days? Weeks? Months? Catch 22. I couldn't decide whether or not I liked or disliked his work, his watermark, until I'd downloaded it and listened to it. I couldn't tell what it sounded like from his description in the text file.

Kinda hypocritical isn't it? Someone takes someone else's work, tinkers with it, and gets mad because someone else takes their work and tinkers some more? Whatever.
