nkramar Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 We've now got a good number of Recordings of the Week out there and some feedback is needed. What do you guys think? Is it worthwhile for us to continue? There have been into the thousands of downloads (1500+ as of last week on megaupload files alone) but very few people are posting in the threads compared to the number of downloaders. We need to know what you think! Responses can be a 'Thanks' or 'I already have this one but thanks anyway' or 'This one sucks, why did you make me waste my bandwidth?'. We don't care what you say but WE NEED TO HEAR FROM YOU. A volunteer is needed to handle uploading and posting duties for the last week in August as I'll be traveling. For those interested in helping out - Even if you aren't chosen for that week, I'd like to get a list going of people who are willing to contribute a show or shows. PM/email/IM me and I'll see what I can do about setting up a schedule of downloads and guest uploaders. And finally... There's something special planned for the RotW next week, so keep an eye out on Friday, Saturday AND Sunday for a number of downloads. That's all that will be said on this until then. Quote
Ashwhisker Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 What do you guys think? Is it worthwhile for us to continue? I think it's a great idea. It's a great thing to have the best shows identified and made freely available. Keep it up! Quote
Jani Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 If there are thousands who download, why wouldn't it be worthwhile to keep going? Quote
Spooky Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 I think it is amazing really. im always looking forward too it. because i haven't heard a lot of them. PLEASE keep on going! Quote
nkramar Posted August 15, 2010 Author Posted August 15, 2010 If there are thousands who download, why wouldn't it be worthwhile to keep going? Download links are being posted on our main page and can easily be passed on elsewhere. It's not necessary for people to register on the site to access them so it's pretty anonymous when people are downloading. Quote
wiiesel Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 It's a great idea for sure. Continue!!! I downloaded only one show so far because I have the other ones already but I'm sure there will be some shows in the future I don't have so....continue. I'm excited for the special thing next week Quote
deafandblind Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 i love the idea i posted on the LPL FB that this reminded me of the NIN site that was doing the same thing reflecting the chrome anyways samples of the tracks if audio and samples of video would be cool like on youtube or something like that usage of torrents - you could invest in a seedbox i aint got any shows mine are all from here and the PR shows that ive got keep this thing going going Quote
nkramar Posted August 15, 2010 Author Posted August 15, 2010 i love the idea i posted on the LPL FB that this reminded me of the NIN site that was doing the same thing reflecting the chrome Where do you think we got the idea? Mark helped put that site together. anyways samples of the tracks if audio and samples of video would be cool like on youtube or something like that Samples of nearly everything we've offered so far are on each individual show page as linked in each post. usage of torrents - you could invest in a seedboxI've got one. It crapped out the first week I attempted to use it for RotW and I'm superstitious about going back to it. If there's truly a need *cough* like next weekend *cough* it'll be put to use. i aint got any shows mine are all from here and the PR shows that ive got keep this thing going going These are the kind of responses that are appreciated (and will be appreciated by future uploaders).

sckofelng Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 You know you can count on me, Nick So can you on me Quote
nkramar Posted August 15, 2010 Author Posted August 15, 2010 So can you on me You already had a turn! Serg - If no one suitable contacts me by next Sunday, it's all yours. I'd like to give non-staff a chance though. Quote
LPPRJKT4 Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 I'd definitely be up to helpin out! If I looked hard enough in my ancient like 2004 archives I could probably find a rare show or two. Quote
sckofelng Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 You already had a turn! Haha. Well i was only considering helping twice Quote
linkin_boss Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 =) i'm pretty satisfied with the shows so far... i really preciate it but i would like to see some shows with special things on them like colabs, or things like that Quote
AudioNick Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 I think it's a good idea. People are just too lazy to say thank you or reply. Quote
SergSlim Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 Haha. Well i was only considering helping twice Your first ROTW torrent got stuck at some point for a VERY long time... so...... Quote
sckofelng Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 Your first ROTW torrent got stuck at some point for a VERY long time... so...... Yeah, happened cause i had a few issues with my computer, i may be able to seed again if needed. Quote
deafandblind Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 yh i still need a seed on that torrent makes a load on sense anways just like the sample in thhe post of the ROTW dude you need to get some meds for that cough i aint been sic this year and i dont plan on being so as i said before i love this site its a great community and talking to some of you guys is cool (insert a smile holding up the devil horns head banging ) Quote
luki9875 Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 keep them coming ofcourse.... some of them i have some of them no so thanks anyway its awsome Quote
McArt Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 i think it's great, and much appreciated. i've been downloading them, but i haven't been able to check which shows i have; all of my lp stuff is on my external hard drive which i haven't gotten around to in a long time. I'm sure i have some of these, but equally sure i don't have others. thanks for all the effort that has been put into these. Quote
hawk Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 The RotW is a great feature and is one of the great and unique things here on the LPL. Keep it up. Quote
maxstar Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 Really very nice idea with RotW each week, you need to do it. I appreciate this very much. Before starting to be a show trader I was angry for ppl not sharing stuff they have with other fans. Later maybe I will help you with some RotW Quote
EWQMinesweeper Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 you asked for feedback, there you go: rotw is about as interesting as julien-k news for me and i don't mean this in a negative way. i'm just happy with the few audio concerts i already have. since most people on lpl seem to enjoy this rotw stuff, i'd say keep up the good work Quote
