"Spreading the love of ukchatforums via music"

Since a shiny new broadband cable appeared in my house, I have downloaded a lot of music from the internet. The process is: download 20 odd songs by 20 different bands chosen at random, burn it onto a CD, and if I like any of it enough I then go and buy it. This method of listening to music has exposed me to an enormous amount of fantastic stuff that I otherwise never, ever would have heard. There is absolutely no way that I would have just done ought and bought a record by Roderigo y Gabriella or Explosions In The Sky if I hadn't downloaded some of thier stuff first. I expect some of you do a pretty similar thing.

So here is my plan. You sign up by leaving your e-mail addy here in this thread (or you can e-mail it to my hotmail if you're all secretive). Everybody burns a CD (or cassette) filled with whatever they want, then sends it via post to someone else who is participating. In return, someone else will send them a CD. This way everybody gets a shiny new CD filled with music that they probably have never heard before.

Anyone interested?

CDouch - it's [email protected]

And anybody at all who wants to do a little trade, gimme an e-mail.

It probably is illegal. But my consience is completely clear, so balls to it.

Sounds interesting, but my CD rewriter's fooked. :\

That's perfectly ok, so long as you don't sell on copies of the CDs. I was implying that some music download sources are illegal. Sorry about the mistake there.

It was originally 2Gb. I didn't notice the change until I logged into Gmail earlier today, as I only really use it for email with attachments or stuff I'm seding out, seeing as MSN Hotmail is far more convenient for mailing lists etc, in the way I can access the inbox through Messenger.

For a minute there, I thought you'd found the old Special Reserve FOG Tunes.

Go on, try to find the MP3s for them online. I'm sure someone's wasting hard drive space with them on their PC...

Voracity is aggressive - not just in terms of food or sex - yes, it does connote hunger, but I've always thought it was more to do with violence.

Ah well, I ATE your....er........skill. I win both ways.

Hurra

Voracity really isn't the right word to use.

You can't responde hungrily, unless it's a food or sex question.

You, foo'

And you know it, you were just stunned by the voracity and skill of my response.

Who are you talking to?

I wasn't replying to your post.

The '?' was 'do I give a sh*t?'

You not get that, ey?

Shame on you.
