To be technical, this whole site could be construed as a copyright issue.
Way to go. While we're at it, let's just call ASCAP

Look, I just got two nice CD's from a band named Auroris. I'll be uploading them to the Moon sometime soon enough. And I will play them on my show. If I just played them on my show, all I need to do is own it myself. But if it's on the Moon, the station must own it. If I own something and upload it, it's considered to be on the station. The way I understand it, Jim needs an actual disc in case an audit is done. I can have a disc and as long as I am "working" for the station, it should be ok for me to own it.

So that's why we should wait on this one, especially since it's popular. How about we don't open a can of worms?

And I may be wrong, but even if Tony from Auroris says to play his CD (and he will, and is happy for the exposure), that doesn't necessarily mean we're allowed to play it. We have to have a copy.

addendum:

talk about timing, check this out:

Pure Reason Revolution's management has just given us permission via
Sony/BMG to post to full-length MP3s to the NEARfest website.

Go http://www.nearfest.com/event/lineup.asp and click on "MP3"
underneath the PRR entry to download the following tracks:

- "The Intention Craft" (6:23)
- "Nimos & Tambos" (3:44)

Both tracks are from the album "The Dark Third" (US version).

Enjoy!

- Chad

I think the band is exposing itself nicely dare I say.

I may listen myself.

Re: Top 5 Prog Rock Albums

The thing here I'm suggesting isn't piracy. It's exposure.

I know what you mean, spaz but the thing is, it should be the artist's call whether or not they would like each individual to pay for the physical CD, or whether or not they want exposure by allowing someone other than themselves to "distribute" their music virtually, without the purchase of more CD's.

And my understanding of Jim's stand on this is that he wants original CD's if someone is willing to donate music to the station, unless the artist gives permission otherwise.

To me this is only prudent. Otherwise it would be opening the situation up to all kinds of nebulous interpretation, however well intended the gift.

And I'm speaking from the point of view of a listener wanting to donate music, I don't know enough about shows to comment on that.

I'm downloading the longer one now (slow on dial-up), but the thing I found interesting is this: SPACE/POST ROCK. Yep, they're described as SPACE/POST ROCK. Isn't that the best way to describe Godspeed, Mogwai, and Tarentel? I think so. But these are short songs and by the picture I doubt they sound anything like those bands. This should be interesting.
