TraceOddity Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Why? The band, and subsequently EMI, isn't going to let us keep all that bootlegged content. And it would take more than one person to run it, unless that person had the free time of a full time job...and superpowers, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 But from what I understand it`s not just buying the site, its maintaining the site. Maintaining the site will require a steady stream of money being pumped into it as long as the site exists and not just a one time sum. Well there's the option of stuffing every free pixel on this site with Advertising banners and porn links to get some steady cash in, but then there's Adblock :I THERE MUST BE A WA, we just have to think of something clever :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TraceOddity Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Well, Maybe if the people who actually KNOW What's going on would say something to help here...*wink, wink*:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Crieff Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 If the band buys this site, they (or at least their management) wont be too happy with their b-sides going away for free. The band, and subsequently EMI, isn't going to let us keep all that bootlegged content. And it would take more than one person to run it, unless that person had the free time of a full time job...and superpowers, lol. B-sides, ok, but that wouldn't be a problem because they're all over the web anyway I don't know, some bands are ok with bootlegs. But indeed, record companies could get bitchy here If we keep the same moderators the team wouldn't even change that much THERE MUST BE A WAY, we just have to think of something clever :angry: THIS come on guys, we can do this :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
