IMO- Quality- depends.
It depends on how bad it is.
But now a days real audio is being downloaded for the 56k people which can be converted to mp3 easily and the quality loss really isnt that bad. But if ripped right 192kbps and 44khz you cant really tell the difference from the og. I cant tell if the quality loss in your discs are different. Because I have never bought your cd no downloaded one of your cds.

ayt so what are you trying to prove? Your albums are not on Kazaa. Do you agree? RIAA is fucking with kazaa. Which has no relevance to you. The places your album are being downloaded wont be fucked with. How do I know? Because the place has been around longer then kazaa and they have restrictions. Its not a file sharing program. Its a chat program.

yup. They are going for people that are sharing a bulk amount of tracks. But if people stop sharing. Then people wont be able to download. Thats there tactic.

WHEN YOU SEE MOVIE COMMERCIALS DO YOU RUN TO KAZAA & WATCH THA MOVIE BEFORE YOU GO SEE IT IN THA THEATRE? MAJORITY OF PEOPLE TAKE THA RISK OR ASK A FREIND HOW IT WAS .....NOT DOWNLOAD IT 1ST.MUSIC SHOULD BE THA SAME I.M.O. - 1MORE THING ABOUT DOWNLOADING...I SPEND ALOT OF $ MIXING DOWN @ THA GRILL TO MAKE SURE MY SHIT IS A-1 QAULITY(ANYONE who BOUGHT my C.D. CAN TELL YOU THIS) BY DOWNLOADING,YOU BASICALLY ELIMINATE THAT QAULITY&CRISP SOUND THAT I LIKE MY ALBUMS TO HAVE.DOES A QUALITY MIX MEAN ANYTHING TO FANZ?
People USED TO be willing to take chances on buying albums they haven't heard but that was before the market got flooded with GARBAGE, the ridiculous amounts of recycled material, and before they had any alternatives. People taking a chance on your music was a PRIVILEDGE and some people are probably still willing to do it. Regardless, it was NEVER something that fans owe artists!

Do people appreciate good mixes? I think most do and most are willing to buy albums they feel are worth their hard-earned cash. Hopefully they EXPECT quality work in exchange for it.

Look man, you can fight the shit all you want but things have changed, period. You can sit here pissing your pants and being all upset over it, or you can find a way to use it to your advantage. People are tired of being ripped off on cd's that they can't return for a refund if they think the music is some bullshit. Consumers have found a way around that. Naturally some will take advantage of that but tons of people just use MP3's as a way to protect themselves from getting suckered over & over again.

As a senior executive, I see opportunity. When doors close, new ones ALWAYS open. You just need to have the vision to see those opportunities and the creativity to act on them.

As a producer, song-writer & musician, I'm not intimidated by mp3's because people will always be looking for hot tracks and I make sure I see my money (or most of it) right from go. Neither will change.

The music industry isn't going down the drain, it's simply changing. The way people communicate is changing therefore the way people do business is changing. There are still millions and millions of people who buy music and the industry is still a mutli-billion dollar-a-year business. There's two choices. You can either find a way to change with it or start getting your resume ready. I'm sure McDonald's is always hiring.

The mystery goes on:

Sick Wid It: A well respected member of the board in terms of knowledge, the way he carries himself and the fact that all the known artists vouch he's someone big

Now I find out he's a Senior Executive, Producer, Song-Writer and Musician.

I know it's none of my business, but damn this mystery has been plaging me for YEEEAAAARRRRSSS.

Thats it right there. Thats the final fuckin' word and anyone who argues it is PLAIN WRONG. Dont care if youre an artist or not. Dont care if God comes from the heavens and tells me otherwise. SOAK THAT SHIT UP AND GET WITH THE TIMES PEOPLE....

" DRE&METALICA DONT KNOW MAGIC DOG,THEY CANT JUST SNAP THEY FINGERS & D.L.`N IS DONE. IT`S NOW A LEAGAL ISSUE...DOWNLOADING IS ILLEAGAL...."

A-wax you hella funny. All the sudden you you are worried about what is illegal. Common now, you cant be serious. What site are people dL your cd. I have never seen it out on any site. I guess Mirc maybe? Anyone know why all the fuss. Kazza sure doesnt have your cd? Why you all worried. Spend time hustling like JT insted of wasting time on something you have no control over. You don have control to push units yourself. Just my 2 cents!
