pffft.

Well guys, I got dinged again, this time by a scary little DCMA e-mail from Blogger, which I'm sure y'all have had personal experience with. This time I knew that I was posting a recently released track etc, I was doing it because I was impressed with that particular track and wanted others to hear it. Frankly, I didn't think anyone would notice this corner of the internet; as I said earlier, apparently free publicity isn't good publicity. Anyhow, I've pulled the Rancid track, just in case, but I'm keeping the other Green Day track up because whoever was pawing through my posts didn't really care to be thorough.

So I just want to take a sec to reiterate that Rancid has their entire album up on their Myspace, which is a pretty cool thing to do. It's not Reznor-core, and I'm not expecting it, but the best thing is that it's a very generous fan-minded move.

hey no problem, we know free publicity always leaves to something, good or bad...

b,
I came by to tell you I left a lengthy comment in reply to your own lengthy comment at my blog, and then saw the totally bad-ass link you made!!! Yay! Me, I happen to enjoy the free publicity - so thanks for all your support. Four Rebeldog Comics fans can't be wrong.

I've been DMCA'd a couple of times now. Got one just the other week for a post from years ago, on the original blog, which isn't even there anymore. That was odd.

ha, of course they'd do that-- on a ghost blog. paranoia to new heights.

yeah. . . it's just a huge pain in the ass and frustrating. i'm sure once i get a few more, i'll be more nonchalant about it :)
