The Bootlegging Scene

[Pred]

Risky didn't explain himself, for whatever reason.

The other bootleggers he was referring to was either:

Other people who buy, rip and upload
The Scene (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Scene)


For those who don't know about the scene, the groups like UKP, RAGEMP3, etc. They are private groups who share CDs between themselves. They do not advocate (for the most part) the public sharing of these CDs, but some people pay for FTP access (where these scene rips are stored on the net), which is what Risky was apparently doing. Unless he was a part of the scene and just rogue.

By the way, the Rinse FM Podcast is already up, but with the wrong download URL. The real URL is: http://www.rinse.fm/podcasts/Scratcha22108.mp3

[bailey_187]

nah not your post. your post has explained it this neeky little "scene".

the scene is sad.

[Pred]

Yeah, but I supposed I've baited Risky up a little bit by explaining that The Scene doesn't like torrents etc.

Perhaps he was on about the other people who will upload CDs.

Groups like UKP and RageMp3 hate people posting links of their rips on forums...

Are UKP who do Grime the same UKP I see on some US Hip-Hop stuff?

[Aza T]

Yeah

theres only a couple of them in the group that are responsible for the grime releases...

[Big-C]

So someone sum it up for me yeah, what is the point of these groups then if they dont like their links being posted? and they add like RAGEMP3 to the file names and comments n shit, why all the hastle if they dont even want it posted around?

They do want their material to be distributed...but through the FTP servers.

but its never gonna be contained just on their servers, its bait ppl will spread it around

[Pred]

It's mostly between the groups, it's a private thing.

[Odotkae]

Think About How Much Money Artists Are Loosing From These Cunts! lol

[Quality Control]

almost every internet leak is down to one of these group ripping things, so even if they supposedly dont like their links being spread around, it does happen alot

[Grimes]

bullshit still, leakers will never die

Without the scene, a lot of your favourite producers would have shit sounds. "The Scene" also involves people who crack and upload applications, and upload samples, it's deeper than just sharing music.

[Pred]

Without The Scene, producers wouldn't have programs like Reason, Fruity, etc as they are too expensive for a producer who is just starting out.
