What’s up all Vinyl Vault Fans & Family, Hope everyone checking in
everyday and are enjoying what we are posting daily. I know most of
our supporters don’t have access to our downloads except for the free
dj mixes that we post but the reason for protecting our files with passwords is to try to keep away leechers and give access to our downloads to Serious music
lovers that collect and trade with us. We take a lot of time
ripping vinyl, and posting each day. We also buy vinyl online if we don’t
have the full 12 inch. Me & the rest of our authors still have
crates full of vinyl that need to be ripped, eventually they will all
be converted into mp3s. Rob and the rest of the authors of the blog do
the same as well by giving up their time with ripping their vinyl and sharing it with the blog, we all do it don't mind giving up our time just for the love of classic music and trading with others that do the same. Now I understand some
Visitors that were either a DJ at one time or so and had gotten
their records stolen or lost their crates of records because of
Katrina or some other catastrophic event and I do feel awful for those
that lost their valueable gems. but how would I know for sure if that
is what really happen I don’t know but I still take it under
consideration. There’s other blogs that are starting to do the same by
password protecting their downloads from lechers and people that don't
take the love for music seriously and you can’t blame them. Every once
In a while we’ll get a hate email or some angry visitor cursing us out
on the cbox because they can’t get access to the downloads and we
apologiez for the inconvenience but we do it for a reason. when we first
opened the blog everyone had access to every download and all we
wanted was a simple thanks or comment about the post and we weren’t
getting that! So we got strict with our download access and we
created the trading system and that’s when the emails started rolling
in on how we can get access to the downloads? And the trading seems
to work somewhat but still no comments or thanks for the postings. We
still get emails requesting passwords and we posted instructions on
how to obtain it but some people don’t read what we post. Our blog can
be translated into different languages so that it can be easier
on the reader to read it in their language. What I’m writing about is
nothing new I have mentioned this about 100 times. So I have a
suggestion to what I want to do with the blog and it will give every
visitor the opportunity to get access to our downloads. As we know
there’s people that want to download from us but have nothing to offer
us as a trade. I was thinking if people would donate a small fee each
month you will have access to every 12 inch on our blog by becoming a
devoted member. The donation made will go towards getting more vinyl
from your requests if available and it will also help us pay off
monthly charges from programs that we use for the blog like the cbox,
media fire & new stuff that we want to add to improve the blog to
eventually maybe making it to a full blown website with forum. I think by doing this it
will keep everyone happy and it will help support us to buy more music
from your request and it will be another way of saying thank you. We average over 100 postings a month and we post 12s
daily of nothing but classic material that is hard to find. We know
what's good music and what is not. So why not help
us to improve the blog and at the same time we will help you with what
you’ve been looking for. Now if you’re a supporter of our blog we want
you to voice your opinion and speak out on how we can make this work
for everyone. We have over 140 followers and none of them
probably have access to the downloads but love us for what we do.
If your a true supporter or visitor that is interested in what we are
doing Feel free to write a comment about this topic or you can send me
(12inchjunkie) or rob an email. Thanks for your support and lets make
this blog better for you!---12inchjunkie, Rob, & The Vinyl Vault Family.
