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"...

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

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.

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