**Shroomery cd exchange club**

Fellow Shroomerites, I have decided to start a cd exchange club for us. I had had this idea a while ago, but AFOAF was...uh hem, experimenting with things and that made me too paranoid to give my address out to anyone. Now that AFOAF is not doing that anymore, i'm free to start up the Shroomery cd exchange club.
It's nothing big. Nothing fancy. What I will do to start it is, I will create some dinky free website with a list of the cd's that I want. If you have one of the cd's on my want list, and I have something you want, then i'll burn a copy of mine, and you'll burn a copy of yours.
I will not rip anyone off, I will not send you cd's that skip(unless i'm unaware of said skip) and all I ask is that you all do the same. I will probably put up links on my page for each shroomerite who wants his or her want list posted as well after I get mine started.
I guess i'll put up a link in my signature once I get the page set up, and just to warn you, I am going to post this thread in OTD, but don't take that as a spam.

I'm pretty sure that this isn't illegal. We're just some friends who will be burning cd's for each other.
I'm very, very, very bad at creating websites, but as long as it suits it's purpose, then who cares, right? If there is anyone out there who wants to make this site look good, let me know.
Here's the site, with my very small want list so far. Pretty soon my want list will be huge.

Don't get me wrong, I love the idea and plan to participate, but c'mon...
It is SO illegal! Copying and distributing copyrighted works is VERY illegal. That's why Napster and AudioGalaxy don't exist anymore!
Viva Revolicion! Let's trade while we trip!

I think if you trade burned cd's on a mass scale it's illegal, but I doubt TOO many people will participate in this club. Therefore it's just a few friends trading cd's with one another. Nothing illegal about that.
Anyway, make up your want list now! Let's get this going!

Should we make a list of wants or just give a list of all music owned so we can pick and choose? Not sure of the legality of such a club but I'm gonna see if I can find out.

This sounds great. I have some Phish shows, Terence Mckenna with Alien Dream Time, Korn, White Zombie, Coal Chamber, Prince, Monster Magnet, and Tool--
I am looking for more Terence Mckenna CD's and other types of spoke word albums.
Thanks in advance. PM me if you want to trade any of these.

That can't be true. Blank cd's would be illegal. When they sell blank cd's they're aware that someone is going to burn a cd and give it to someone. The way you've got it sounds a lot like San Pedro cacti. It's legal to own, but if you take the mescaline out, it's illegal. I doubt that blank cd's are legal as long as they don't change hands. I also doubt the music buiness is after flea markets and yard sales either(they sell the real thing!)
I'm going to keep this site going until I get a C&D letter.

It is completely legal under copyright law to make "backup" copies of CDs and DVDs. Giving or selling said copy to another person is Illegal.
This was decided in the "Betamax" court cases that opened the door for vcrs and such.
Hollywood and the rest of the industry are currently trying to change the rights of consumers by limiting the new technologies. For more info on this ongoing and behind closed doors "meetings" of industry leaders, you can visit the Electronic Frontier Foundation

What if you let the person borrow your burned cd?
Is there a law against letting a friend borrow it, or is it illegal for anyone to even touch your burned cd, once it has copywritten matierial on it?
Can they touch it?
Where do you draw the line?

I think it's a great idea.
It works perfectly with the collapse of audiogalaxy too. Now we can screw over the RIAA even more.

I am very interested in particpating in this with you all. I have a TON to contribute (over 600 cds)
I think it is MUCH better to make a list of what you have instead of what you want. This if for a couple reasons.
1. It is really hard to come up with loads of stuff that you are looking for. Shoot I can barely even manage to do think of what I want to get when I am in the record store. If you have a list in front of you then you can just scan through it and see if the person has anything you want.
2. Legally...having a website of our audio lists presents absolutely no threat whatsoever.
3. It is easier to arrange trades that way. It might be hard to come up with a match without lists. Let's say I have an album you want. I email you and say I got so and so. Now I have to try and come up with something that I want from you in exchange but I have no idea what you have. I ask you about a bunch of discs that you don't have so we can't make the trade. You may have something that I want but I just didn't think of it at the time.
Anyhow.... Just my opinion let me know what you all think.
Oh yeah and also I think it is important to note whether your albums are mp3 sourced or original. I hate getting a disc and find out it is a crappy mp3 sourced disc with tons of glitches that I won't ever listen too.

Hey Karen. I may put up a "have" list of my own, but there are reasons why I didn't do that to begin with.
1) I to, have TONS of cd's. It would take a long time to make that list. Also, there may be plenty of cd's that I have access to, but don't own. There's no way I could possibly make a list of the cd's I have access to. That's crazy!
2) I have LOTS of great cd's that i'm sure people are going to want, and if they don't have something I want. I just have some feeling that i'll get more people asking me for my cd's who don't have one I want. However, there may come a time when I want a cd from someone, and I don't have one that they want, so. I guess it can go either way.
I don't know, I may make a "have" list if enough people think I should. If you have anything i'm looking for Karen, i'm sure I can find something you'd want.

Glad to hear it bigidiot. Good to hear The Shroomery Cd Exchange Club is doing good things for your cd collection.
Hope you got that Jefferson Airplaine cd you've been pining for. I've never heard of it. Must be a bootleg.

I have a couple of the discs you are looking for and several from other people's lists too.
You do have a valid point. A lot of times we have access to discs in addition to our own. You could always just add that information to your list. Say something like "I have access to a lot more stuff so if you are looking for something that you don't see on my list just ask"
It doesn't take all that long to do a list. It doesn't take nearly as long as it seems like it would. Actually now that I have done it I LOVE the fact that I have a list of my audio.
The problem is without knowing what the other person has to offer it is hard to make a match-up. Not to mention that you might want other things that you didn't think of when you made your want list.
It is totally up to you and whoever wants to be listed what they want to include but it is my suggestion. I just know from experience that it is a lot easier to have a list then to include a want list.
lemmie just show you by example why i think it is better to have a list. I'll Pm you.

Here's a small clue for Bigidiot. The artists basically get jack shit for selling records. The vast majority of revenue from record sales go to the record company. The artists make their dough from touring and souvenirs. So I don't have any problem exchanging a few CD's with some of my friends, as long as it's not done on a large commercial scale to make a profit from it. Note to self: Trade nothing w/ Bigidiot.
peace

I love the concept but have to agree that it is more trouble than the shrooms. All it would take is one nit-wit too many to have the authorities up our asses with a microscope. One CD is $18.00 to a record company. You're talking big bucks. The thought is great but I don't recommend it-AT ALL!

How did you guys unearth this post? What made you go find it? Curious.
Would anyone else like to join The Shroomery Cd Exchange Club? I've made one trade because of it, and i'm looking to do some more.
Everyone look at my want list. If you have something that I want, and I have something YOU want, PM me, and we'll work out a deal.

This sounds like a great idea to me. I just started college and have a pretty good collection myself. I am sure I have access to much more here as well. Alot of you folks making lists of what you have/want?

Go to the link at the bottom of the page. Everyone who has given me thier "want and/or have" list is on that page. As far as I know, i'm the only one who has actually made a trade.
I just have some rinky dink page set up. It suits it's purpose. Give me your "want and/or have" list, and i'll put you on there as well.
