[Slowhand] Re: Offers on the SD - Lulu Wins

I totally agree with Mark on this one and if I would have seen the post 
offering the Crossroads show with the 2 second gaps I surely would have responded 
in a negative way.

The point is to keep the recordings in their original form  when trading or 
sharing in this type of forum.  One guy responded to Mark's post wondering why 
Mark cares if someone has two second gaps in their copy, it's because your 
corrupting the trading pool when you do that!  Before you know it most of the 
shows are going to have two second gaps and like Mark said maybe after 10 trades 
he might get a CD in it's original form.  It's not just your copy with the 
gaps, the 5 people you send them to and so on down the line will have the same 
problem.  

There's nothing more annoying than listening to a live recording with pauses 
in between the tracks.  Perfect example, try listing to The Beatles' Abby Road 
with two second pauses and you'll know exactly what I mean (not a live album 
but you'll get the point).   Besides, what's so hard about burning DAO, it's a 
simple click of a button!  If someone on this group sends me a corrupted disc 
I won't pass it on and I recommend everyone else do the same.   

I think what Mark is asking is for people to take care in what they're doing 
when copying CD's, I think you're messing with a good thing when you don't, 
before you know it people  won't offer up new shows.  

Just my two cents,
Jon
