In a similar vein people on soulseek who have all their files locked unless you trade with them, particularly the ones who want gift vouchers and shit like that I feel goes against the community spirit of piracy as a whole. If I get hold of something rare or that has broken street date i'm excited to share it with others who may no be able to get it for whatever reason.
Really pisses me off scrolling through my search results seeing loads of lock symbols with user info listing demands that must be met for you to be oh so privaledged enough to receive a right to download from them. It goes against what I grew up knowing piracy to be, I'm guessing I am a similar age to you though.
And to all you soulseek users listing locked files with lists of demands to access them. Fuck you.
I have ~14k songs (320kbps mp3) on Nicotine+. Always happy to see people download them! If you're into electronic music, ChuuqoVN is the name.
I'll have a browse through what you have. If you want "real dubstep" then gimme a search "music4cheese"
Yessir, love me some 140. Added you to my buddy list. I'll check yours out when you come online.
