Hey. I am off to college, so I will soon have crazy amounts of bandwidth to do whatever I please with. So... here is my plan. -The New and Improved IDM MP3 FTP Site.- You may ask "improved over what?" Well, a while ago, there was a site run on the Hotline (i think that was it.) network. Hotline was a software client that you needed to communicate with the hotline servers. It worked well, actually, but most people saw the needing of a special client stupid and unneccessary. As do I. I am going to run this site via FTP only. So noone will need new software or anything. The old IDM MP3 archive worked like this : you upload a complete album that was not yet on the archive, and you have unlimited leech access. Mine will work the same way. You upload something I have not yet put to MP3's, and you have unlimited access. I will have at least 1.5 gig's devoted to the MP3's, so there will never be a lack of things to go around. I will also be archiving them to CD-R's, and will be able to rotate the selection as is wanted. So, if you are interested, mail me with a havelist, and we will talk about what I need. This should materialize in about 2 weeks. Wish me luck. Here is what I DO NOT WANT mailed to me!!! 1. MP3's. 2. mail about how illegal MP3's are and how labels lose money and such crap. I DON"T CARE. I know about the consequences of MP3's and how little they affect companies. The site will be ran non-profit for a reason. If you mail me about what a horrible person I am to trade MP3's, then don't expect a response. 3. mail merely expressing interest. I am looking for HAVELISTS right now. The site is not yet running, I don't know my IP, or anything like that. So wait for me to mail the list again. thanks and goodbye. Shane
