**Mod Post : US releases of Asian Artists
This has not been an issue, but I wanted to make my stand clear before it did...
As a rule, I am against downloading w/out the intention of ever buying. Some of what I post here is either hard to find or out of print...the rest, well - I hope those that like it will find a way to buy it. Regardless, for anything released in Asia, I don't make judgement calls.
HOWEVER. If it gets released in the US, I am totally against it EVER being posted here. Buy it, or call a radio and ask them to play it. DO NOT request or post any US licesned music in the community.
That said, I totally support the US debuts of any asian artists, so, I'm going to allow another type of post. Previously, I asked that ya'll keep the posts to requests and uploads, but I decided a 3rd post type was needed ^^
Any information, whether release date, place to buy, or US concert info, is allowed here. Please tag as *US debut/release or *concert information - please don't use these tags for anything else. ^^
One more thing - I am usually pretty much ok with everything. I don't delete posts, and I don't harp on comments, and I don't friend lock the com. This, however, is an issue I am not going to back down on. Repeat offenders will be banned. I will also report the links - this may seem harsh, but it IS illegal and potentially career-harming, so...
oh, and yeah - if anything does get posted here that is licensed, or if I post something that is licensed amd don't realize it PLEASE TELL ME! thanks! ^^
Anyways, hope it never comes up ^^
