Unhappy mp3quality gone

That sucks bad. I'm not sure what exactly happened, but it sounds like the mp3 "sceners" need to get a life. I was happy to find a reliable source to tell me when some albums got released. Been checking it every day waiting for the new LP release, but I guess that's the way it goes. It doesn't seem like any mp3 release ever lasts. Just wish there was some way to bring this back. In the meantime, anybody know of another site?, it seems like most are either closed down or not updating anymore.

That does sucks. I enjoyed the site myself. To bad that sharing a little knowledge with people will make someone bash your name and make a hate irc chanle.

Then again it's always easier to bitch then to actualy do something yourself.

I would like to say thank you for the attempt X69.

"its funny.. the mp3scene seem to concerned about privacy and security that they cry (and yes, they cry a lot) about a website like this, which is one of a few by the way, and more will come whether you like it or not.. yet i have a list of usernames and groups of people who opposed it, and people who also published my iP (or what they think is my iP anyway) around... not that secure really guys...

from the attitudes and the whole crybaby attitude that seems so so popular amongst mp3sceners (which is a funny term to use when 10mbit sites can get an mp3 rating without much trouble) that proves they are just cowards. dont like the public finding out about releases? how about you dont pre them then. if you can't stand even the slightest bit of publicity then you're in the wrong game my friends. if you think one website complying with your whinging is going to lessen your chances of being caught then i feel sorry for you.

it doesn't matter how secure you think your sites are, or your dupechecks, someone will always be willing to rat you out in order to defend themselves. you'll never find my name linked to anything illegal, because im not stupid. maybe you are. -pHo"

that was my piece of text to go on the page. just my view, nobody elses.

wow thats messed up how gay people can be sometimes , sorry to hear about the site, it was looking good, nice try x69, another site i know of is www.mp3news.cc

Wow. I'm actually pretty surprised that mp3q was X69's site. I figured it was someone just using a variation of the vcdq site's name for their own advantage. Pretty impressive to see X69 is behind both of them. I loved the site when it was up. I guess the sceners had no problem with mp3hq cause it was always so shittily outdated?

Anyway thank you X69 for this site and that one. For every unappreciative person out there, there are 10 who truely appreciate your hard work. Quite a shame some people dont recognize and realize the work you put into all this when their whole thing is to reward those who contribute.

I was sad to see it go as well. Bump for ideas of other places to check... mp3hq.net has been down for a LONG time and still says "Coming soon"

:: they went private

Unfortunately, I didn't get to see mp3quality when it was in existence. I'm sure it was a great site, and would provide a great service to the kiddies who arn't 1337 enough to hang out in the mp3sceners private dupecheck chans.

But you know what, the mp3 scene is a fucking joke. So I wouldn't take the words, opinions, or values of their sceners very highly, nor would I brake if I saw one crossing the street.

Hopefully X69 will bring it back up in defiance.

Nope, I just checked - mp3hq is back up again....for how long, nobody knows.

I just think it's kinda strange that the mp3 "sceners" complain about a site that didn't even show NFO files (correct me if I'm wrong) or any other sensitive information... Wonder if VCDQ got bashed when it was first started?...
Too bad there ain't no other mp3 release sites available... but it's probably just too much work to keep up with all the releases that's why no sites exist in the long run

theres at least 2 :

www.mp3hq.net
www.mp3news.cc

mp3 sceners are just whinging babies, theres very few groups who i have any like towards anyway, and this just proves my point further. ah well thats what happens when you get brats who join the 'scene' a few years ago and think they're elite because they can use EAC and LAME. the audio equivalent of vcd bin/cue girls.

Forgot about the first one...I used check mp3 releases everyday at mp3hq.net but when it started going offline and online I stopped. Back in those "days" there weren't that many groups to keep track of...

mp3news.cc is probably fairly new so I'll have keep an eye on that one.
