See, i dont look at it like that. theyre most likely going to get nailed on this one, and the record wont get repressed. and if thats the case, the whole run is going to sell out anyhow! and its the retailers who stocked the record (without knowing about the samples in the first place), so subliminal is getting their $$$ any way you slice it. besides, in my case, i think i did more good by telling everyone on here about it, than the bad caused by if i bought the 12". ;) i hear where your coming from, but i really dont see it as as big a deal as you do. to me, your argument is like "dont buy that mispressed copy of 'minimal nation'. thats just making it OK for archer to screw up pressings". well, kinda anyhow. besides, if i buy the record, im DAMN sure not going to play it in a club or put it on a tape or anything. hell, im not even going to listen to it around the house. for me, its asomething that has a story linked to detroit related techno. and ill pay the $6 for the actual piece of the story. if thats wrong, than screw it... i guess im a selfish bast*rd. but im not alone. this im SURE of. derek.
