seems whoever it was on here talking about the site and how Warp/Rephlex/RDJ/whoever felt about it was right.. the following mail was received by the owners of the Aphex Twin MP3 archi= ve this morning.. As I was told by Ylph though, the archive pretty much just contains out o= f print stuff, and doesn't have every track he's ever made. but I think it does have a lot of tracks. I have no use for mp3's myself.. I'd rather bu= y the records, I have everything I don't have on cd/vinyl on tape.. (no offense intended to xxxx@xxxx or Warp Records.. After all, posting th= is to IDM only helps your cause) -- Forwarded Message --------------------------------------------------- From : Kristian Liptak <xxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xx> Date : Thursday, 21-May-98 Subject: Fw: Aphex Twin / Copyright Infringement ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -----Original Message----- From: g. <xxxx@xxxx-xxx.xxx> To: xxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xx <xxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xx>; xxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx <xxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx> Date: 19. m=E1j 1998 21:27 Subject: Aphex Twin / Copyright Infringement Dear Sir, We control the entire copyright vested in several master recordings (the "Recordings") by Richard D.
