Well, I had the op to play around with one this weekend.

I am by no means a saint, but I think I got a feel for what's right, and what's not so right!


This falls into the "not so right" category, IMHO.

60,000 tracks.

$499


Not only are you ripping the artists off, for all the work they did, BUT, you are also getting mediocre quality rips, with many tagging problems, and no quality control.

Word to the wise -- stay away from them. I'll do a more in depth when I get some time...
 
Honestly, not worth it due to the points you've made, but it's just not right, it's a question of morals and pride.
 
Thanks, Rick.

We're CD-based so the HDD wouldn't apply to us. That said, I have been hankering for a complete set of the old DJ Tools collection. On the rare occasion when one appears on eBay, I'm always sniped. :(

Yup, I agree with the legality aspect. It's just plain wrong to load a HDD with copyrighted music and sell it without obtaining the proper licencing first.

From a personal standpoint, I do not care for lossy MP3s and amateurish .wav files that sound like an AM radio on crack. If I don't like the sound of it, it's a good wager that the clients and guests won't like it either.
 
Thanks, Rick.

I was thinkin' somethin' sexual... like a hard deek drive, lol. Baby likes to ride it like a boogie woogie choo choo train. :D
 
Wouldn't it be more like pass the bong????

Love to, but drank way too many beers today doing the well cover, so I'll just stay on that track (pun intended) :sqlaugh:

So, I have 60,000 songs in front of me (only about 120 I like, and I already own them)!


Found one song I don't own -- Centerfield (live) -- John Fogarty, that I love.

Workin' Amazon now :)
 
Pass the pipe and let's mellow to some Dark Side Of The Moon by Pink Floyd. It's album rock night on FM and we're gonna play both sides of the LP. Keep them tubes and that tone warm. :)

Dunno if you care for Kenny Chesney. He's got some really nice tunes from the early years up to today.
 
I wanna hear some "pre-Steve Perry" Journey, you know, when they used to rock?

Of course you can always keep me happy by playing most anything by "The Tubes"

And George Thorogood is always good....
