Hot Chip+Dreamhost takedowns
  • Anyone else?
  • No (I haven't posted anything from their latest album) - EMI aren't very forgiving (or weren't when I posted some remixes of Hot Chip stuff last year).

    Did you get the takedown request from DFA Records, EMI, IFPI or someone else?
  • i got an email from the PR saying the title track was cool to post but i haven't posted it yet.
  • DFA contacted Dreamhost to tell them to tell me to take down a few Hercules & Love Affair tracks... so stay clear of trying to spread the word about that one.
  • Hmm has anyone ever had a problem with godaddy and mp3s? Seems like few use godaddy.
  • dfa has never been blog friendly. emi has their moments.
  • Yeah - this is what Jonathon Galkin of DFA had to say about mp3 bloggers:

    On the note of Godaddy - what are they like with bandwidth? Most hosts oversell, but Dreamhost seem to actually be able to offer more bandwidth than I know what to do with before complaining. Others are less forgiving. Just wondering how Godaddy were with it.
  • thats a great article, but don't bands make little money off their cds? I thought most of them make it off shows

     The 6.95/month plan isn't so bad with 1500 gb of bandwidth but only 150gb of space (don't need it). I would be scared to use something like Dreamhost with the take downs and all.

Howdy, Stranger!
