Ahhh. Glad I poked the bear.  I responded that way because this topic has
been discussed ad nauseam.  As most of the members of this list know, I
purchased the record as soon as it came out, recorded it, ripped it MP3s,
then offered the MP3s to anyone who wanted them as long as the band didn't
have a problem with it.  I never heard from the band with their approval, 
so
maybe that's an argument you can make with them rather than yet again
complaining they haven't run out and invested in the soon to be obsolete CD
medium.

D'you think the band intended to end up looking like fat old timers playing
to seventeen people in a pub whilst sounding like shite? That's what they
are now, and how they'll be remembered if they carry on with this unique
marketing ploy.

 

Steve Wilson and Tim Bowness also hate the way music is treated
nowadays..but even tho' they'd rather have us listen to their albums as a
total concept rather than flicking from track to track and dis-respecting
the music, they make their art available in whatever medium fans want to 
buy
it.

 

1. because they actually have fans.

2. because they actually care about their fans.

 

Your comment is arrogant bullshit.

Tell your friend David to stop being so cheap and buy a good turntable so 
he
can listen to the music as the band intended.

long enough, and have no intention of forking out seventeen quid (plus p&P)
for an old tech version which degrades every time you play it."
