LP Fansites finally being punished

[nkramar78]

and he doesnt mean the stuff you can buy most likely he means the stuff that costs buttloads on ebay

 

The Hybrid Theory EP, I assume you mean?

 

That's the beauty of that one. WB holds no rights to it and cannot stop it's distribution because it was released independently prior to LP signing with WB. It's the same reason LP (or the LPU) cannot sell copies of it, but they can be given away as prizes for things such as the LPU's referral program.

 

Same goes for any recordings like that - any of the songs from the Xero tape, 2 track demo CD, 2 track demo tape, etc. - WB has no rights over and can be distributed freely, which is why I was able to offer the 'Demos' torrent on DIME and TTD.

No I'm completely against putting stuff online that you can actually go to the nearest CD outlet and buy.

 

I can't just go out and buy the Numb / Encore single. Or, go buy the music videos. Which means that LP wouldn't make money of them anyway. So what point does it have to shut the sites down that have THOSE?

The music videos? I'm fine with any of them except the following:

 

Any Hybrid Theory video as they appear officially on Frat Party (includes the in studio video of Esaul).

 

The 3 Reanimation videos as they appear on the Reanimation DVD-A

 

Either version of Breaking the Habit (normal or Kimo Proudfoot) as they're available on the BTH DVD.

 

The Director's Cut of Faint, as it was released on Mark Romanek's DVD last year.

 

So, that leaves... FTI, SiB, Numb, Faint and Numb/Encore.

 

 

As far as not being able to find some items... It's hard to find some of them in stores; as a collector, I know this. Doesn't make it acceptable to download them, no matter the reason.

you can get them on itunes

Why does a thread I make always turn into multiple people attacking me EVERY SINGLE time?

[Reflectionist]

It's because of the bullshit that finds its way through your fingers.

 

Dude, I'm never gonna stop being your friend, but you've done some really silly shit.

[azemkamikaze03]

I just think its kind of funny becuase when Rising Tide was first coming about Mark was upload or trying to get every song off the album and upload it on here.

 

Obviously its not good what these sites are doing, but do you seriously honest to God seriously think LP suffers from this? Lol the make millions anyway! I mean I used to go to Linkin Inside to get the ocasional song or two becuase my meteora CD broke and i used the site as a substitute. I mean it's hard to get the BTH dvd I saw it by chance same with the frat party, obviously i dont agree with hosting the dvd film itself but the videos shouldnt really matter.

 

I guess it all comes down to the fact that what the hell is the point of snitching? You act like Warner Brothers care and are going to give you a badge of honor for turing this dudes that they probably already know about in.

 

But yeah stop snitchin XD

[Reflectionist]

I concur.

well how about instead of praising yourself by making the thread, just know that you're doing something good, because none of this matters.. the thread doesn't mean anything.. it's your actions that mean something. i think the best way to hear something good about somebody is from somebody else, before they go on and tell me like they think they are some saint. if somebody else made a thread that said "hahninator did a good deed" then i don't think people would be attacking you. this might just be my modest personality talking over, idk.

 

just let it be known i give a lot of respect to you for doing what you did, incase i'm coming off as a total dick. :thumbsup:

 

i just feel that you might be a bit hypocritical when it comes to it. (this is an assumption)

[Reflectionist]

I agree gift, however.

 

Hahninator would've had to actually done a good thing first.

 

And if you'd have read the thread, you'd see that hardly anyone is praising him anyway.

[gft___]

yeah that's true, he did a good thing in a legal/record company kind of way. but the music is for the fans, not for the record company's to keep away from the fans.

 

it's hard to say in the end if it's a good thing or a bad thing, i'm sticking with a bad thing :thumbsup: i'm all about the music, not the law

 

and i bet hahninator would have a different view on this if he wasn't a collector of LP and already had just about everthing

 

edit: i'm not going to hate him for it, or take anything from him though

[Hahninator]

I hate WBR as much as every one of you but I don't see why sites need to host materials you can buy in a store or online.

[Hybrid Soldier]

I personally agree with the law, and think the law si what ti is and shouldnt be changed, as with the mexican immigrant law, that si why I agree with mark on this one.

[Hahninator]

ok I guess in the future if Im going to do something I wont point it out

[gft___]

ok I guess in the future if Im going to do something I wont point it out

ok thats not really the total point i was trying to make before, to me one of the greatest feelings is when i help person 1 with something, or anything like that then person 1 hangs out with person 2, then i hang out with person 2 and they say something like "hey, i heard you helped person 1 by doing such and such" when you hear that i really seems like it meant a lot to the person if they relayed it on.

 

ok, that was confusing..

 

i think i was wrong before with what i said, i think it only works in real life lol.. not on a message board, so proceed with what you do. :thumbsup:

 

edit: i am way off topic

[Reflectionist]

and i bet hahninator would have a different view on this if he wasn't a collector of LP and already had just about everthing

 

I have just about everything. And I have a different view.

 

I'm also 4 years older than Mark too. Does that say anything to you?

[Hahninator]

jake they are illegal and dont need to be there so I was trying to get them removed >_< if you cant go to a store and get them, order them online. thats why we have ebay and online stores. im not sure if bootlegs are legal or not, but since I collect them I won't say anything about them. all the album stuff has to go though.

[gft___]

i just typed out a big explination, then deleted it for i don't need to start an online fight with people i will never meet in my life lol, and just say that you might just have a bit of a more laid back personality. idk what it is with me and personalities but i'm pretty good at making a decent judgement on how people are by what they say and their actions.. idk how old mark is, but if you're 4 years older than him then we're probably pretty close in age, i'm 21 and have met a lot of people in life to spot the good ones lol

 

once again, way off topic, idk why i keep posting in this thread.

[Hahninator]

I'm 14 but I don't think age has anything to do with this topic. The point was I was telling people that fansites that host illegal materials are going to be punished for it lol.

[gft___]

i know lol, thats why i said i kept going off topic lol

[Hybrid Soldier]

That you should be 4 years maturer than him?

 

(which you arent)

I actually think you are wrong because no, I wasn't trying to upload tracks from the album to here. I was attempting to NOT listen to the tracks until 11.22, and lasted until about 11.18, when Vash, UM0 and I heard Kenji. Then I downloaded the rest from the MTV Leak rips and threw them on my iPod. I bought the album on 11.22, just like I said I would. I never tried uploading all the songs here. All I did was rip RTN, Petrified and Believe Me from the players months before the album came out and put them up for download here.

 

Don't put words in my mouth and don't tell me to stop snitching, because that's exactly what the fuck I'm going to do Thanks

you didnt try to, but you were going to, read the fort minor thread in other artists if you dont remember

[Hahninator]

Phort Mineur: theres a reason for that

Phort Mineur: there was nowhere for some people to buy it

Phort Mineur: and I was helping them out

Phort Mineur: I cant help it if WBR doesnt send records to every country
