Matrix/Trading Ethics question. Good or Bad??
I have a concert that I'd like to spend some time with and mix the two sources.
Heres my situation... Source 1: Lossless Aud in SHN format (only AUD source available) Source 2: Lossy SBD in mp3 format @192 (only SBD source available) The problem is, I know for certain that Source 2 has no lossless masters because it was patched from the SBD into an Ipod. As with a lot of SBDs, It lacks the live feeling and its too rich in the vocals. Source 1 is a fairly decent AUD that lacks what Source 2 has. so heres my questions... If I were to mix these sources together would they be considered untradable? Is there a certain percentage that the lossy would have to be at to make it ok for trading? Obviously my concern is to be able to trade this "improved" source with everyone online. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks No members have liked this post.

Re: Matrix/Trading Ethics question. Good or Bad??
it would not be allowed here, that's for sure. there are other sites that have clauses for "best available source" where if lossy is the only available source then this sort of a thing is okay. try DIME and also ask over at bootcity.org (they allow webcasts if they're the best available source, this will probably be allowed, too).

Re: Matrix/Trading Ethics question. Good or Bad??
ok cool... I was hoping that I could post it all around but I understand.
I was hoping I could squeeze in a %20 lossy %80 lossless. Ah well... should be fun to try anyway for practice. No members have liked this post.

So Dime probably isn't the place for this either - but only the mods there could tell you for sure. No members have liked this post.

So the answer is probably no - it's not considered treason to use other lossless trading sites. No members have liked this post.

Donovana, the site we sometimes call easytree or EZT is now called dimeadozen or DIME or DaD. It's no big deal to mention other sites here. Every site is different though in what they allow.

Re: Matrix/Trading Ethics question. Good or Bad??
well the deed is done regardless. I did it for my own amusment but the outcome is great so i wanted to share. If anyone is interested then search torrentspy for tmv mississippi nights and enjoy.
And as for what Wilson says well... folks just need to get over it. Its not their music and they arent making a profit so why the control issues?? But I guess thats a different thread all together, eh? No members have liked this post.

Chomsky - just make sure you note it in the linage. Most tapers don't mind, after you got in touch with them. I (now) always make sure that I tell them what I'm doing 'cus I burned my fingers one time after some ignorance on my part. I know that when you put in the hard work and people critisize it is hard to take, but messing up someone linage can cause problems.

Personally, I'm a purist. I'd prefer things as they originally were - hiss, clicks, turn-overs, burps, farts, etc., but I can sure appreciate others who want a clean sound or some other type of modification to the original recording. I'm just happy for what I can get - no matter what it sounds like - but given the choice, I choose all original. No members have liked this post.
