RE: (313) discogs.com
I was thinking along the same lines - pick the most popular tune you could find - except I defected and started looking at people like Tiesto and Sasha Digweed. Seems although gobs and gobs of people just gush about them, not too many own viny copies of their records (or do CDs count?). I take this as a positive sign. Either that or the massive masses haven't discovered Discogs yet. I take this as a positive sign too.

Yeah I've had similar strange reasons for rejection of comments from discogs. Yet at the same time I've seen the most anodyne, wierd (i.e. not particularly reflective of the music) or sometimes just plain idiot comments on there! I have had some comments passed - but again, the reasons why they went and others didn't isn't altogether clear. At the v least it's inconsistent.

perhaps you should not say when I played to a crowd, and you should instead say when played to a crowd of it was accepted openly. I can see the line that they don't want to cross. If they allowed reviews like that, they'd have every bedroom dj in teh world sliding in quips about how good a record is when THEY play it, etc. If it's really not about the fact that you played it, then you'll have no problem changing the words around to make it generic. :D dense On Mon, 5 Jul 2004, Thomas D.

I've had mune up there for a few years now...there is a way to go there and make your collection private so that no one else can see it. That way, no one will ask you to sell it. It does happen all the time now, but I have scored some real deals out of there... If you have a huge problem with it let me know...I am a moderator and I will bring it up in the mod forum to see if maybe something else can be done about it.

Discogs is also been a great place to meet like minded people.

And it acts as a sort of DIY group effort to catalogue the music we like - especially for those labels that are either no longer in existence, don't have websites, or don't list their discogs. I use it for this reason and the below mentioned it's a very effective way of keeping track of your collection, specifically all the pertinent little details I do have a music library catalogue on my computer but my computer isn't working at the moment and I thought - what if something was to happen to my computer and I couldn't retrieve a list of what I had or in case of some sort of damage to my collection (fire, robbery, etc. - touch wood)? Ah-ha! www.discogs.com it also helps me to figure out do I have such and such record already? since I have an ever expanding collection.
