Posted by david on December 15, 2004thanks for the links. a couple of weeks ago or so your site turned me on to The Traders Den (run by former mods from STG). Any idea what has happened to that site in the meantime? Thanks again!
Posted by: preston on December 15, 2004 11:15 AMThese selections seemed based on whether or not the band is a favorite, rather than taking into consideration the performance, or the audio quality of the recording.
Do you preview these before posting?
Posted by: ws on December 15, 2004 11:42 AMThe Traders' Den is having a hard time garnering a following.
These selections are biased by what I think is interesting. I'd rather have a bad recording by a band I like than a perfect recorded show by a band I wouldn't waste time listening to.
I download several of these shows, but rarely before I post them. Feel free to read the poster's comments and the replies on the various torrents, that is usually the place to find quality comments.
