Counter-notice has been duly filed to MEGA. Believe it or not, that's the first one since the revamped Mlist was launched 22 months ago...so, yes, we do squeak when we walk.
WTF what knob head has done this? Fucking unbelievable!Rat Patrol wrote: ↑11 Oct 2017, 11:21pm. . .the dipshit that filed the DMCA takedown notice today on dpwolf's Jaap Edenhall SBD remaster. I'm sure it's worth one beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelion dollars to your CD-R drive and inkjet printer, since it's only like one of the Top 3 most oft-circulating Clash boots on the interwebs and you're surely the first person on Planet Earth who in the last decade has ever thought they had a foolproof scheme to monetize this source. And best of luck getting it scrubbed off YouTube so you have the market cornered.⁷

So is this something that will affect SonnyB's and my mix...and my most recent upgrade? Or is it just that Dpwolf version? I really don't get why an asshole would do this when as you previously said RP that it's been out there in various guises for so long.Rat Patrol wrote: ↑30 Oct 2017, 2:01amThe counter-claim is still pending, though MEGA's taking its sweet time getting back to me. This is the only d/l link affected. You can still get the full audience recording from that show.

I have long wanted to debate anyone from the music industry who claims audience tapes, FM/mixing desk, anything not officially released harms an artist/band. Case in point: The Celibate Rifles. I'm in the US, didn't know who they were... A friend sent me a nice crisp aud tape of a recent show. After hearing that, I have purchased every legit CR release, and gone to every show in my area. How, exactly, did that aud tape hurt them? Point two, who do they think the consumers are? It is us, the legions of loyal fans who will buy anything we can get our hands on. When the official releases don't satisy, and with the Clash they never will, we will catch as catch can. Once again I ask who is being harmed? Studio recordings are a different matter, certainly. In the case of an artist's work being released prematurely, ( Springsteen's "Nebraska" I think ? ) that is theft; and if done purely for profit, prosecuted. If every minute of the Rope sessions should suddenly appear for sale, guess what... I'm buying it. If it comes from Sony, and the lads/Joe's estate can benefit, fine by me. HUZZAH! If not, then that is Sony's fault for sitting on the recordings when they know there is a market for them. If that seems selfish or myopic,and perhaps it is, sorry mate. I really hope nobody involved with the ML gets jammed up on this
