If you put em up at 64kbps, watermark it and only a 45 second clip you got nothin to worry about

96kbps is pathetic, absolute rubbish. But some people listen to stuff on mobile phone speakers, which would indicate their idea of hifi is a bit retarded, those people propably would be ok with 96kbps :roll: . I think we should be able to make money out of these unfortunates even if they haven't a clue what quality sound is.

Jokes aside I'm against these sites. I'm also against the playback quality of myspace, I used to squeeze every last bit of sound out of their size restrictions and now it seems they resampled it at 96kbps, cnuts. Even sports commentry would be (even more) shit at that bit rate.

to be honest its not difficult to rip myspace on your own after about a 2 second search on google. i have ripped a few tracks off myspace but i also buy a hell of alot of vinyl as well and can't mix mp3s

ripping off myspace is wrong, and uploading vinyl imo can never be acceptable, no matter whether u think playing on vinyl is only acceptable in dubstep. I think more releases shud be put out digitally to help stop this cus i do believe there is a large percentage of people who wud stop ripping off myspace and using other such sites, if some of the bigger tunes were more widely available.

If you upload a high quality version it still remains on Myspace's server even after they have made a duplicate file of lower quality so people may be downloading the high quality versions..

You may as well post the link to the site in the forum so people know not to use them :)
