      exactly right

    That's astonishing. :)

  •  

    Went thru the whole list, had about 20 I tried downloading. Only 1 actually went through. Rest are either broken or dead links.

  •  

    So many people are viewing. wow

  •  

    Downloaded around 30 :)
    All the prefix ones are dead so are the sxsw (something like that) ones

    lol, i wonder if the prosecutors will notice heaps of the links are dead.

    I must be getting old, didnt recognise quite a number of artists.

      Some sites might have have links active for a limited time (or EMI might have pulled them given their reputation) but they are still on the record now as free tracks that EMI is denying is/was ever available. Still a lot available/active.

        imho, if i was the prosecutor, i'd just be like "oh, i brought my netbook to court… oh look all the links are dead… were they even working in the first place?" :P

    Check out the "Joe Jackson - Invisible Man" track from the spreadsheet - Great find! :-)

    Aha, this will be an interesting case to see the result.

      tbh i hope emi loses, but im a terrible person

      •  

        It seems ridiculous that EMI claim otherwise, when clearly their tracks are on the net for free.

  •  

    I grabbed 150 or so tracks :D

    Thanks for the post!
