Aad Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 yeah' date=' but I think that's legal....preventing the people from downloading it during those 3 extra days[/quote'] I was trying to persuade someone who works in a shop to sell me a new CD before the release date once, but she didn't coz she was affraid to get punished. But I saw her reading the booklet of the CD. So I thought I have to ask her... Indeed, when they (the record company) find out that you've sold a CD before the release date, without prior notification, you can get a fine of at least 10000 euro's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petit Prince Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Yeah, but a Dutch accent isn't that bad in German, because Dutch and German sounds similar. many people in Holland can speak German very well. I don't know why they leran gErman. I always thought they wouldn't want to learn German coz they hate the Germans. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eline. Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Oooh :D Yeah the Big Evil Soccerworld :P I went on a daytrip to Köln with my class last year.. just the day after Holland won some important soccergame from Germany or something.. And some stupid kids were all dressed up in orange and had painted the Dutch flag on their faces and stuff.. it was kinda funny :P I don't understand that rivalry.. maybe because I don't like soccer :wink3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petit Prince Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 lol Maybe during the euro. When the German's didn't beat the Czech's second team and Holland won against ehm Lettland I think. And the Germans were after that? :D I like football. There are some great Dutch players. I especially like Ruud van Nistelrooy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*HildeKe* Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Free Record Shop....ik ging naar binnen voor de Speed of sound single, maar zag opeens het album liggen was wel wat verbaasd Hier in België wordt X & Y ook al verkocht. Ik heb hem vrijdag gekocht bij Extrazone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petit Prince Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 gekocht means bought? In German that means cooked. :confused: We read somewhere 'huur koop' and we were wondering what that means. What does that mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I vaguely remember it had something to do with Letland, yes.. Most German people didn't seem all that happy with us then, no.. :P I don't like football that much..

Petit Prince Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 I was. :cool: It was something about the goal difference, I think. many people didn't think that Holland have a chance. There were article in German newspaper in which they showed the Dutch team the fastest way home from Portugal. I really love football. I think many Dutch people do. Don't they? I don't like volleyball that much, I think I'm really bad at it, actually. We always play at school sport. And there are so many girls that are playin in a team, so I'm one of the worst. :embarrased: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During big championships the whole country is dressed up in orange and singing the national anthem and stuff like that and it's really fun :) But I don't like football that much because I'm not very good at it, just like you with volleyball..

Petit Prince Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Yeah, that's the impression you get, when you see the fans on TV. The Dutch team have great supporters. And even when you go to Holland now you see so many oranje shirts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
