    The U2community is bigger than just U2start...
    But okay, change the result to wasted time and bandwidth then.

    Result: B traded for something he already had, A ruins his reputation and makes himself looking like an idiot.
    Hahahaha... Nice description. Did it happened to you?

    I knew all of this. i have my collection filled with all the correct lineage and the source, but that's not for everyone.
    Probably the 90% of the people who visit U2Start is searchin' for a show, gets it and doesn't care if it comes from FLAC level 6, from a broadcast or from Sound Mixing Board...

    Nice suggestion, prbably the best so far for the new U2Start.

    But anyway, i understand YEAH, it is annoying...

    Not that way and I don't collect/trade audio anymore unless a new good Pre-Elevation gig pops up.
    But I traded more than once for so called 'different perspective' or 'lower gen' vids.
  5. When trading what happens when your trading partner has everything you have?

    Depends. He might agree on a B&P of the shows you want. If not, well, then you'll have to search another trader.

    Trading is great fun. Feels much better than downloading 20 shows in an hour. And, more important maybe, the quality is better, too.
