[skiEER]

[Mezmerize19]

I downloaded and I see no way to get music. Disappointing

 

[chapz]

meh i just use blogs that want you to download their music. most of my music is too indie for frostwire or any of those p2p networks.

Bad news

Music file-share site Qtrax forced into humiliating U-turn

" A website which promised to give music lovers the world's first legal

file-sharing service was forced into a humiliating climbdown today after it

emerged that the company had not secured the backing of the record industry. "

" Today it emerged that none of the four major labels had done deals with the

site, putting a large dent in the promised catalogue of 25 million songs and

prompting allegations that the site's founders had misled fans. "

Bump..............

Anybody get music yet with this?

it let me download some stupid song, but it doesnt work with zune :

 

[skodeo7]

Or you could just keep downloading music illegally like the rest of us and not waste your time with this crap.

 

[cousinmark]

what a looser!!!!!

The singer James Blunt gave Qtrax a cautious welcome. “I’m amazed that we now

accept that people steal music,” he said. “I was taught not to steal sweets

from a sweet shop. But I want to learn how this service works, given the

condition the music industry is in.”

it s going to be super interesting to see how music evolves. i think its going to multiply in quality. more people making music inspired by passion & not greed.

 

[lushlaxstr]

does that mean you cant get sued anymore?

 

[timmmy]

it failed miserably. not happening. industry wouldn't back it, aka proof that it was pretty legit.

 

[cousinmark]

^ they will loose its just a matter of time.

 

[skisebski]

no you still can and people will. just wait and see.

 

[andy_boy]

Bumping this shit because I just went onto the site today and found out that 'apparently' free legal downloads of all their music as been enabled for people in the USA. I still don't believe it, but I'm in Canada so I can't exactly test it. Anyone?

 

[ben802]

with leopard all you have to do is hold both fingers on the touchpad and press down on the clicker. the new right click!?!?!?

 

[Celone]

im checking it out right now, its currently being installed onto my computer

 

[k-rob]

so we didn't win, big deal...where's the fun in doing things legally anyways? (=

 

[Mezmerize19]

wheres the fun in downloading illegally. Just saying. I never got a rush from downloading an album

but anywho. theres a some albums up on here now so go check

 

[k-rob]

lol it was a joke dude, lighten up. just saying i don't mind downloading illegally, quality is usually pretty good anyways, and it's a hell of a lot better than going out, buying an album, and finding out half the tracks are shit.

 

[Mezmerize19]

its 2 in the morning, im fucking tripping on this mix someone posted in media and arts, and im hungry. yeah i know its no excuse, but sorry for being a dick
