Coz - Newcleus MP3s

[DJ Detroit Butcher]

Whats your stance on that? I can't find any 12 inches but you can find Newcleus on slsk .... It's my understanding that you're not getting paid regardless...

prolly 95% of my mp3 collection is shit you can't find in stores... that's why I loved napster and audiogalaxy ... not for dl'ing the latest missy elliot single.. I support artists dammit but if I can't find something at a store, or if it's so out of print that any existing copies for sale are ridiculously overpriced, damn right I'll settle for an mp3.

just dont sample him

No no no no no...PLEASE SAMPLE ME...AND PAY ME AS WELL!!! :wink:

I do get paid for LEGITIMATE uses of my Newcleus stuff, not as much as I'd like since I don't own either the masters or the publishing, but I do get paid! I probably get paid more from people sampling my stuff legitmately and paying the proper royalties than I do from sales of the original songs...so by all means...SAMPLE AWAY!!!

I have NO problem with Newcleus mp3s or mp3s of my other stuff either, I feel it helps to keep the interest in the material alive. As a matter of fact, it's the only way I even have some of the more obscure material I have produced and/or put out, since I had lost copies years ago. I'm of the firm conviction that most people who download the stuff would probably either have never bought it...or can't find it to buy...anyway.

What I DO HATE is bootleggers!!!
