Personally I don’t think you are an arsehole for not sharing anything but within my music niche there is definitely a lot of cunt that lock all their shares and are generally very hostile in regards to their shit.

I share an absolute shit ton of stuff, a lot of brand new stuff and I always have hundreds if not thousands of tracks uploaded each week but my niche genre is absolutely full of elitist, gate keeping pricks.

Aside from locking all their files trying to get bandcamp vouchers and shit in exchange for their files when some people want some stuff from me have had a fair few conversations with people saying “yeh you can have access to my files but you have to promise not to publicly share them”. I always agree that I won’t knowing full well I am going to straight away.

I have also received a few messages when these same people realise I’m sharing “their” music calling me all kinds of things but fuck those cunts!

Piracy is about sharing stuff and making it available to everyone as far as I’m concerned and pissing these elitist, file locking cunts off just makes me so fucking happy.

The concept of locking files goes against what piracy is all about in my opinion and when I do find these file locking cunts when I am searching for stuff myself I will often just unshare all my files from them because they don’t deserve all my new releases I share if they are going to act like that.

Long story short, fuck “etiquette”, share everything!

And if you are a “dubstep head” sharing locked files on there reading, fuck you, you are a piece of shit.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
