    I didn't mean to insult you or disrespect what you do for the site. But you cannot deny the fact that u2start is popular MAINLY for the fact they offer MP3s of shows. The more shows you have the more popular you are, thatz a fact, too.


    U2Start is a site that offers MP3s mainly, so i guess thats obvious and nobody is denying that.
    But popularity is nothing more than a by-product, at least it is for me.

    I dont go telling you you are doing multicams for popularity, nor i do say that about tapers.

    At least I do not use videos by ppl who told me they dont want their video to be used for the multicam.

    The question still remains the same, why do you not respect taper's wishes. Only because other's don't???? WOW.


  3. You tape in venues that don't allow taping.

    (your taping is great btw. Just hilighting how absolutely everything has a counter argument)

    Thats a good point.

    Well if I get caught I stop. u2start sort of got caught by tapers...yet they don't stop. Anyhow I don't think venues will stop doing concerts due to that...taper's do stop to share their recording.

    But u r right of course.



  7. ????? I don't understand how that addresses the question. You dismiss tapers that don't want their recording shared in mp3 because there are plenty of tapers and they don't matter. But you still have to disrespect their wishes because no one else has?????

    Ah well, those few won't be missed. There always will be enough tapers who love to make as many people happy as possible by sharing their stuff. And we are motivated as hell to praise them all and thank them gratefully for all their efforts.


    Why not simply wait for them?

    You stop because of written rules and laws. You don't stop because it's wrong in the first place. I use 'you' but I mean tapers in general.

    Every taper disrespects the venue by taping. U2start disrespect the taper by offering mp3 against their request. Not like for like I know but just proof that we can do this all day long for another 20 or so pages.

    Remy has stated his case, tapers may follow achtung_babys course of action. Only time will tell. Not ideal.
  10. This sites only goal is to open the world of bootlegs to the common people. Who just visited a show. Or want a recording of a show they couldnt attend.

    Point me to a site doing that better than u2start (definitely not a closed site like u2torrents) and we will follow.

    If it's shared, we will share it too, no matter what. That's our point, and if it's not going to be shared anymore, then there might be others to share it.

    I'm done for now with this discussion, I keep repeating the same things over and over again.

    All open for a PM as usual.

    Have a good night all

    I know...
    You know...u2start is biting the hands that feed us fans. And I cannot understand why he openly goes for this. Thatz a sharing spirit in a wrong way in the end.
    But as you stated a long time ago...things don't seem to change in Remy's way of running the site/MP3s. And thatz just plain sad coz now ppl who obey taper's wishes and never used this site will suffer from recordings being held back thanks to u2start.
