If you were to come up with an alternate name for a fan-produced anthology set, what do you think would be appropriate? :-)

It's nothing more than a cheesy pun coined after the backstory was created. The whole fan-anthology is nothing more than a smokescreen to spin David Fuller as the bad guy and the other traders as the good guys.

You couldn't be any more WRONG, Tero! The Fanthology name had always been there even going back to the invitation I received back in summer 2011.

I suppose it's possible, but there's no way to prove it, is there? And there's even less proof to believe the group had any altruistic motivation.

I could just take your word for it, if only you hadn't ruined your credibility with your continuous public campaign against David Fuller... Such a shame. :/

And now the original author has left....

Exactly, because nobody in the group has ever shared anything here.

Have you heard the BBC version of White Queen ? Good thing you didn't thank a fanthology member for that, since you wouldn't want to look like a fool...

My favourite word is reasonable. Thats all I ask for someone to talk to me in a reasonable manner.

^ agreed.

Many (apart from nevermore) of the BBC sessions were around long long before fanthology, , They were circulated in the days of cassette bootlegs produced by a Bootleg supplier called Scouse Pie tapes back in the late 70's ad early 80's. As were a whole range o varying quality live shows including Leeds 82, and the original Liverpool 74 and 75 boots. .

The newer rarities were largely shared before Fanthlolgy came into existence (perhaps by people who are now members) or by Dave F who depending on who you believe went rogue after he joined or obtained some of his rarities via other means before he joined the group.

If the rarities he shared were from fanthology I suspect that some fanthology memberswere sharing privately with him via 3rd parties - perhaps they still are.

As it stands I expect that both parties, DF ad Fanhology, are wishing he hadn't; joined.

There seems - from my perspective - very little that was shared publicly by Fanthology once they were in existence. What they shared between themselves is anyones guess.

True, but not in the best quality: JSS has given us ALL of those tracks, direct from the masters, shared in FLAC.

Like you say, you don't know what they've been sharing, and just because there are a lot of tracks that went viral before fanthology, doesn't mean that some of its members were not the original source to begin with (i.e, they may not have shared directly, but have traded with someone who then shared freely).

It's ALL speculation. As I've said before, let's wait and see :)
