Using those kind of servers will make us more music-hungry when we have more money (when I don't have the need to beg my parents for a few euros, i.e.
). Here in Spain there's a campaign against copying CD's, saying that you're gonna kill music and bullshit like that. The benefits of the live gigs in Spain last year have been really bigger than years before, and the same must be happenning in others countries, but they don't even mention that fact in the campaign.
But let's hope that yesterday's failure was a temporary one. LONG LIVE AUDIOGALAXY!!! (but despite Audiogalaxy, I'll go on spending all my money in music....reserving a few coins for alcohol
)

@kschpät: hey, co-founder sounds better than member... I'll change that too (if you don't mind...)
@S&L: well, when Napster was still alive I also downloaded quite a few songs from there... so I'd do the same with Audiogalaxy if I only could... but I never harmed the music industry because I just downloaded a couple od songs of a band... and if they were good I'd get the album (and I know lots of you do the same)... HAPPY BIRTHDAY DUDE!!!!
anyway, I heard that it AG is working right now again... maybe it was just having temporary problems?!

As soon as I heard about the problem with the AUDIOGALAXY Service I tried it out. My first reaction was: FUCK!!
I don´t know what will happen to this service. I only hope they will start offering the Songs again!
In the meanwhile I´m trying with KazaA. But this is bullshit if you compare this service with the AUDIOGALAXY one.
Metal Cheers!

Here is the official deal with Audiogalaxy: RIAA, NMPA Reach Settlement With Audiogalaxy.com
Recording Industry Association of America, National Music Publishers’ Association Reach Settlement with Audiogalaxy.com
New York, NY, June 17, 2002 – The recording industry, music publishers and songwriters announced today that they have reached an out-of-court settlement with Audiogalaxy.com, the Napster-like clone, which requires Audiogalaxy to stop the infringement of copyrighted works on their peer-to-peer network.
The agreement follows a lawsuit filed in late May accusing Audiogalaxy of facilitating and encouraging widespread copyright infringement – a last resort step after repeated efforts to warn the firm of their liability were ignored or resulted in ineffective attempts to fix the problem. The suit was brought by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), on behalf of its member labels, and the National Music Publishers’ Association (NMPA), on behalf of the music publisher principals of its licensing affiliate, The Harry Fox Agency, Inc.
The settlement reached would allow Audiogalaxy to operate a "filter-in" system, which requires that for any music available, the songwriter, music publisher, and/or recording company must first consent to the use and sharing of the work. The other key provision of the agreement is for Audiogalaxy to pay the music publishers and recording industry a substantial sum based on Audiogalaxy's assets and interest in resolving this case quickly.
"We are pleased to settle this case quickly. This is a victory for everyone who cares about protecting the value of music," said Hilary Rosen, Chairman and CEO of the RIAA. "This should serve as a wake-up call to the other networks that facilitate unauthorized copying. The responsibility for implementing systems that allow for the authorized use of copyrighted works rests squarely on the shoulders of the peer-to-peer network."
"The message is clear – there is no place on the Internet for services that exploit creators' work without fair compensation," added Edward P. Murphy, President and CEO, NMPA. "Such services hurt creators and hurt the legitimate Internet businesses that wish to comply with the law and compensate the creators. The swift resolution of this matter is thus a double victory that creators and legitimate Internet businesses should join in hailing." (more)
Audiogalaxy.com, based in Austin, Texas, was one of the more heavily trafficked file-sharing websites.
