Look, I agree it would be nice if GNR helped us out more at all. But that's just not going to happen unless myself and the management team turn this forum into HTGTH. That's never going to happen, so I'd rather not go hat in hand to the band/management looking for freebies. As the old saying goes, the bill always comes due... 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contest rules vary widely by country, but I'm sure you aren't interested in actual facts. This is all theoretical anyway- no contest has been announced yet.

Thanks, I appreciate that but I don't mind keeping this place going as the expense isn't too great. But it limits what we can do in terms of contests and giveaways. Our host provider has squeezed us on hosting costs and hence there's no more money to give away tickets, merch, shirts, etc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, since the box set promo says up to 192/24, which is super high resolution, I'm not to worried about the sound quality of this release.

I always love when they say that, BECAUSE the original im sure was mixed in 16/44100, so when you mix it UP to 24/192, where does the 'extra' come from? (hint: its usually manufactured, and you need an ultra high end system to even hear it) Sometimes it's done VERY badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not an expert in this matter so I dont know if this information is of any use to you, but I just wanted you to know. so cheers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just I reckon the option is there if the cost of running the forum becomes prohibitive. Many of us value this place. Eh, whilst contests and giveaways are nice, the most important thing is that we have the forum to hang out in. I appreciate you running it! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
