Could I make a wee suggestion? Could you add a little section for discussion/swapping/whatever for vinyl bootleg lovers?
Some of us old dinosaurs are still about...
It's only a suggestion...if it doesn't float your boat, no problem...
Cheers

That's all I mean by that. By "mp3 lovers" I meant people who were spreading mp3 gigs and passing them as losseless...[/QUOTE]
I'm glad to see that you are not bashing mp3 listeners.
Mp3 listeners seem to be thought of as second class citizens by many posters here lately.

great idea, man! I mix and master audio for a living, so count me in for the clean-up! kittsuk(at)hotmail(dot)com.
I have been following this discussion and the birth of this project closely, and even if I can't contribute with either skills or source material I would like to leave my thoughts and sugestions.
First of all let me say that I AM what you call a LEACHER. Yes, I mostly download files from this and other forums and ocasionaly I get to share something I got here on another forum and vice-versa.
Second, I believe there is a place for MP3 trading/sharing. I can't forget that the first Queen bootlegs I got to listen too where shared in this format right here at Queenzone and by Martin at his old website. MP3 are good to listen and get to know what is out there, but they should never be traded for lossless material.
This said, I would like to leave the following suggestions regarding the web site part of the project.
I don't think that whe need a new website and forum. What we do need is to organise what we currently have, an by this I mean part the watters here at Queenzone.
Instead of having a single forum for sharing and trading let's separate them. create one forum for sharing (Bit Torrent only) and a separate forum for traditional trading (Mail, B&P, Vines, etc)
We realy need to enforce a sharing rate policy on the tracker. 1:1 seems irrealistic to me as it is dificult to newcommers to achieve that quickly (especialy if you have nothing to upload, so I think that a share ratio of 0,5 or 0,6 would be ideal.
We also need to bee able to see the torrent statistics online, so everyone knows wich torrents need seeders.
And finaly we need posting rules. I say no more rapidshare here, because rapidshare encourages people to compress the files into lossy formats. And when posting torrents you must give all the information possible on the recording, the minimum being:
Venue:
Source:
Lineage:
Quality:
Format:
Tracklisting:
links to queenconcerts don't cut it.
Currently I am ignoring any torrent that doesn't have this information, because it renders the files useless for trading later on.
Cheers and keep up the good work.

Well I am not making a site specifically for this project, but if people want to use it then that is fine.
