Originally posted by brewdog:Why do people want MP3s anyway, what an inconvenience when some people use Periscope and Mixlr to narrowcast the show live. I, for one, cannot wait for some taper to convert his pull and upload it in flac, or even MP3… takes too long! I need my show right now! Isn't the Montreal show up yet? Why not???
Really? When I started listening to U2 shows I had to tape them off the radio myself or wait from my buddy to bring one by so I could dub it. WhElevation Tour came 'round and I could join a CD-Tree, that was heaven.
If you need your quick fix, watch Youtube while you wait the extra half hour to download and convert.
Cheers & Apologies to J. Swift...

And having the reason for this stipulation be nothing better than "because this particular taper says so," and finding out that they get pissed off and threaten to punish everyone if 1 member of this forum is willing to do some intermediary steps ONCE to kindly save some time for thousands of other people so they don't all have to do them individually.
