I have become the latest victim of the Anti-Freedom Forces.
One of my file servers deleted my account without warning.
Since I was too stoopid to back-up everything, some is lost forever.
The rest I have pulled the links for now, & will re-upload the files elsewhere.

Both Earhole Stuffer II & Son of Earhole Stuffer II, Link Cromwell's Crazy Like a Fox from the Lenny Kaye post, a live Nick Cave show, The Fuzztones, Misfits/Rocket from the Crypt split, ROTR, & Scratch Bongowax are gone for good.
Nasal Sex, Nash the Slash, Renaldo & the Loaf, Pig Bag, Birdsongs of the Mesozoic, John Sinclair, & The Detonators/Econochrist split will have to await re-up & their links are dead for now.
If anyone notices any more dead links or suspicious activities, please let me know.

After the lull through last month, there appears to be a renewed and accelerated spate of DMCA Takedowns.
ReplyDeleteThis sucks.
Here's a link to a fellow blogger who also had his Filden account "suspended" at the same time, nate:

Apparently, though, the links still appear to be active.
I got nailed. My divshare account went bye bye.
ReplyDeleteSo far, box.net appears to be immune.
I guess no one give a fuck about my re-upping any of these files, so from now on, if musick goes, it goes unless someone asks for a re-up in the comments here.
ReplyDeleteFuck Blogger. Fuck Fileden. Fuck Fascism. Free the Musick.
You lurkers & leechers don't seem to give a shite about the effort that goes into any of this, so you get what you deserve.
Fuck lurkers & leechers. Fuck all.
Looks like Versions Galore (a wonderful covers blog) is the latest to be hit by DMCA takedown notices.
ReplyDeleteI still use divshare; in fact, I recently recommended it to Jay Hinman when his blog Detailed Twang had to remove his box.net files!
The thing about Fileden is that you can upload single tracks easily & then those readers whose computers are slower or have full hard-drives can just open the tracks & listen to them without downloading them if they want or need. That's why I always liked it for sets or compilations or random postings...it gives the opportunity of sampling the music before downloading. Divshare, Megaupload, Drop.io & others are better for .zip or .rar uploads of entire albums (unless you have a premium [pay] account, in which case the speed is comparable to Fileden).
ReplyDeleteI try to watch the availability of musick that I post, sticking to the strictly OOP stuff (one of the reasons for the weird stuff I post [but not the only one]) so I (I probably asking for trouble here) haven't been bothered by (in a very tiny voice) any DMCA takedown yet.
Any chance you have Venus & the razorblades "songs from the sunshine jungle"? I have it on vinyl, but would love to have a download, and hear your take on them. I managed to see Dyan Diamond perform back in the day, and her wonderful but unreleased-on-CD "in the dark" is an amazing debut.
