What? Read the last thread. I managed to get invited to their secret circlejerk channel. I'm leaking.

Torrents should be open. Nothing going on behind closed doors can be good. I'm just doing my duty.

>>57579683

I hope they take their time instead of making a WCD clone.

WCD was not great. They need to make an actual great music tracker this time.

i'm not too worried on wcd, i mean i'm sitting on this data and whatever comes up, i'll just fill in what i can get. i have everything in flac too so all my obscure stuff i DL, hopefully i am not missing out on whatever obscure stuff doesn't get recovered.

>>57579721

I'm really concerned about the new site's security if people are already leaking shit to 4chan of all places
When the site comes out I'll sign up through a VPN and never connect to it through my home network. No way it's not been infiltrated yet. As if OppaiTime wasn't already enough of a honeypot, it looks like BOTH of the admins there are running the new tracker? Fuck...

To be fair, you had to wait for freeleech so you didn't have ultimate freedom.

<albino> post feet

>>57579866
I heard AzzA was pushing to make it ratio-free

>>57579899
not really. without a seedbox, the optimal stat for ratio was to just download free 2016 ambient/drone albums from bandcamp or whatever free audio hosting site and upload it. those genres usually have albums large enough to be 400+mb in flac or 150+ in mp3, and seedboxes would automatically pick up if it was a 2016 album. ez. lurk moar

An ideal music tracker does not have to be filled up with Bandcamp shit you idiot.

>>57579924

>>57580031
i don't see how they would enforce that rule. they weren't just bands that "spew albums out", they were real bands with bandcamp pages that made real albums. the albums were just free.

They're pretty relaxed about uploading. As long as it's not western, unofficial, or a batch, they'll allow it. They don't give a fuck about any logs. Just make sure it's not one big flac+cue, it needs to be split.

If you fuck up make sure you PM a mod that's not dead (i.e. TeslaGuy and Andikki)

>>57579880

no it wasn't. not without downloading hundreds of gb of shit you didn't want to listen to or spamming bandcamp stuff that seedboxes would autosnatch and that no one would ever listen to either.

So you're telling me that PTP would be ok if people were encouraged to "make movies" with their phones of them jerking off and uploading them as short films or even student feature films? And that uploading their own films would get them tons of buffer?

way to completely dodge actually answering the question. good job on that.

the reality is that no real users are ever going to actually come across the bandcamp-esque torrents while browsing unless they intentionally are looking for it, in which case you've uploaded something that someone wanted, and otherwise, who cares? if nobody sees it, what's the harm? there is none. it's just a way for users to stay afloat in the ratio game.

Exactly. It should be banned outright.

2:1 maximum ratio on any one torrent
30 day minimum seed time

> if nobody sees it, what's the harm? there is none. it's just a way for users to stay afloat in the ratio game.

People see it and uploading should not be for the sake of getting buffer, it should be for the sake of adding value to the tracker.

Free albums have no value. They should be banned outright and WCD should use another system instead.

I blame WCD for not banning free albums. They probably allowed it to make money for a seedbox partner.

If the next WCD replacement allows free albums, then that shit is compromised by a seedbox company.

One thing WCD was that a lot of people forgot while it was still up was it was a catalogue of music, along with a piracy website
I think they should have pages for free music but just link to where to get it legitimately.

Although on that note some of these bandcamp artists with their free music tend to disappear. One guy who wrote some songs about a gay deer did (he ended up being a rapist but his music was funny, so that makes it ok!)

i agree, although i don't think there's any inherent negative value in having free albums in a tracker. having free albums in the index doesn't mean shit. i would like a different approach to the ratio system that didn't see seedbox users winning 100x over, but i can't really think of any.

What.cd's format was perfectly fine and you're an idiot. Whatever replace it won't be FLAC only, so I guess you'll just have to stay mad autist.

>>57580457

Many good albums have been released for free. See: Radiohead's In Rainbows, Death Grips' work, a lot of mixtapes, DJ mixes, etc., and there actually is good stuff available on Bandcamp for free. I know labels like Count Your Lucky Stars have had everything available free before. Musicians on there like clipping. are decent.

>>57580460
>i don't think there's any inherent negative value in having free albums in a tracker

There is, because you are encouraging users to spend time uploading trash and having people browse through trash.

Just ban all free albums and make a system that does not depend on trash.

>>57580496
who is going to browse through all the new uploads though, seriously? nobody does that. you're overthinking it.

also what >>57580491 said. other that what.cd just working as a torrent site it also worked as a cataloguing site, so free albums fit right in in that case.

>>57580438
>I think they should have pages for free music but just link to where to get it legitimately.

>Many good albums have been released for free. See: Radiohead's In Rainbows, Death Grips' work, a lot of mixtapes, DJ mixes, etc., and there actually is good stuff available on Bandcamp for free.

They should still be banned because you don't need a private tracker to get them. They should only be allowed on a manual basis when they cease to be free.

A lot of people look at the torrent index page. You aren't doing them a favor by artificially inserting shit into the tracker.

Admit it. The only reason you want to continue Bandcrap uploading is so that you can get buffer.

jesus christ you guys are retarded. it's so much more convenient to just get the albums you want in the format you want from the website you already use to get music than to go to whatever site to download the albums, assuming ratio isn't an issue (which it won't be if you upload free albums)

do you have absolutely no concept of reality?

>>57580541
buffer wouldn't even matter if i were to buy into your ideas for ratio alternatives, so that's irrelevant. i just don't see why you're so against having free music in a torrent tracker. who are you to decide what music does and doesn't belong in a tracker?

>>57580552
>it's so much more convenient to just get the albums you want in the format you want from the website you already use to get music than to go to whatever site to download the albums, assuming ratio isn't an issue (which it won't be if you upload free albums)

You basically undermined your own argument at the end. Nobody is going to work to upload free albums in order to download free albums. I'd rather just go download from the source myself than fuck up my own ratio and then work to fix my ratio.

>>57580571
damn bro just let people download shit off a private tracker if they want to
most of the time, wcd had a better layout than anything, making it ridiculously easy to find any album
that's why people used it, not only because the music was free

>>57580571
>Nobody is going to work to upload free albums in order to download free albums.
but they did. did you not see the amount of downloads on, for example, death grips' albums on what before it shut down?

>>57580562
>who are you to decide what music does and doesn't belong in a tracker?

It's a private tracker. They can do whatever they want. WCD happened to have a bad policy about that. If WCD's replacement happens to ban free albums, are you going to protest?

It's really sad that you have to want this so badly just because you have a seedbox. I have a seedbox too, but that doesn't mean we should be able to fill a music tracker with recordings of chickens and bass drops.

>>57580525

When Death Grips was at maximum hype, the uploads on What helped a ton by reducing load to their website, which is notorious for going down during new releases. As long as one person was able to download it from their site, it was able to be uploaded, which let a lot more people get it quicker.

>>57580579
>damn bro just let people download shit off a private tracker if they want to

That's up to the owners of the private tracker. Not you. You can only download what is allowed.

This stupid liberal attitude is the reason why WCD was nothing but a shitfest of retards uploading garbage to get buffer.

>>57580602
you're not the fucking owner either so shut the fuck up or start the next greatest tracker you fucking faggot

>>57580585
> WCD happened to have a bad policy about that
and who are you to decide what is a good policy or a bad policy? all that exists is the policy that WAS. there is no good or bad.

>It's really sad that you have to want this so badly just because you have a seedbox.
i don't have a seedbox, and i never have. totally irrelevant.
> but that doesn't mean we should be able to fill a music tracker with recordings of chickens and bass drops.
that's not up to you. they let skrillex on there didn't they?

>>57580584
>but they did. did you not see the amount of downloads on, for example, death grips' albums on what before it shut down?

Of course they did because it got them buffer. My point is that it shouldn't be allowed. They should be told to get it from the source and to only allow stuff you can't get for free.

>>57580590

Who cares? Anybody can upload that shit anywhere. Why does What.cd have to be loaded with free shit when that shit can be uploaded on anybody's public Facebook page? A private music tracker should not be a mirror for free shit. It should be a place where you get shit you can't get unless you pay.

>>57580633
have you not read the disclaimer?
everyone on the site downloads only content THAT THEY LEGALLY HAVE THE RIGHTS TO. I.E. THEY ALREADY PAID FOR IT
fucko

>>57580608
>you're not the fucking owner either so shut the fuck up or start the next greatest tracker you fucking faggot

Haha I'm going to laugh when the next owner tells you that your free Bandcrap shit isn't allowed anymore.

>>57580610
>and who are you to decide what is a good policy or a bad policy?

I didn't join WCD because I wanted to upload shit to get free shit I could get somewhere else. I joined WCD to get music I had to pay for.

That alone makes it a good policy. There is no point in having a private tracker contain what is essentially public material.

>>57580628
>it's never how it will be. because it's fucking stupid and it makes no sense.

That's according to you, but most people will say that they wouldn't allow free shit if you told them that people upload free shit just to get more buffer than they do.

>>57580650
>There is no point in having a private tracker contain what is essentially public material.
There's no point in not having both you bloody drongo

so how do i rip a rented video with youtube-dl? Keeps ripping the trailer.

>>57580657
>There's no point in not having both you bloody drongo

The point is that the quality of the tracker goes down when people are encouraged to fill it with shit just for the sake of making massive buffer gains.

There's a reason why PTP doesn't allow me to post a 250 minute "movie" of me masturbating to hentai. Because it doesn't help anybody except me when I upload it in 4K to get buffer.

yeah, okay. we'll talk when you are those people make the rules for the next big music tracker.

you guys can pretend like uploading free shit to trackers somehow makes the quality go down, but realistically, it doesn't. free albums are a necessary evil for many reasons. denying that is just pulling the wool over your eyes, and it's likely not going to be a rule on the next big tracker. it just doesn't make any sense in any realistic way.

It's the same shit. It's just that WCD was encouraging people to pay their seedbox partner by allowing people to abuse the tracker.

The only reason you want it is so that your dumb ass gets buffer. Just admit it.

When the next big music tracker bans free music because they don't have a relationship with a seedbox company, I'm going to laugh at you not being able to get your precious buffer you autist.

Planned Maintenance - 16 hours and 35 mins ago
The site will be up and down over the next 3-4 days as we aim to make several site improvements.

With recent events at fellow trackers we thought it best to let you know in advance so as to avoid any panic.

The security of our users is of the highest importance and we aim to strengthen that even more during this downtime.

Keeping these sites alive is become far more risky and far harder and even more expensive than ever before. We shall keep going for as long as we can.
