[QUOTE=chuckc;1050972]i am guessing the majority of members do not dl the sets anymore. They are really old sets and all the new ones over the past 3 years are linked here now anyways.

what do u think of removing the post limit and give a 1 month period for everyone to dl what they want and then Kamal removes it.[/QUOTE]

Well said fella

Fair point.

Re: Archives to be deleted...

I agree on the download and store part. I still believe some things must be preserved, though, until Clouds become more common and accepted. I see Amazon is launching a Music Server service, they accept EVERY file you want to upload to them, not just the ones you buy from the site. They still have a 256kbs limit, but that's enough if you just want to be able to access your files wherever you are.

The point is, delete them from here! But a few people still want to save them somewhere else. Two different problems, at this stage.

Re: Archives to be deleted...

It'd be cool if they all go up on SC and they're accessible from anywhere, and have the SC player embedded into the existing archive threads.

Re: Archives to be deleted...

^Absolutely, just think about how many people would actually listen to them if they were all stream-able? Downloading mixes feels like a thing of the past frankly.

That would be pretty pimp.

I'm still volunteering, I spent hours and hours on the artists database, I'm willing to do that too, unless Kamal & co. lost their interest (see lack of moderation in other sections) and that's a different story.

Re: Archives to be deleted...

I still like to download all my mixes and save it on my own personal hdd.

The cloud is great and all... but you never know when it will all get blown to smithereens.

Re: Archives to be deleted...

yes i still dl everything also, i chop/edit the majority of the sets...rare you find a full set that is excpetional from beginning to end.

Then it isn't worth keeping.

Re: Archives to be deleted...

You kinda need to download the music if you're carrying it around with you on the commute.

I stream mixes on the commute via soundcloud. So I guess it all depends.

If it's a mix I really enjoy, then I download it.
