MOTORPSYCHO INTERNET ARCHIVE

Thank You. I’m not into Spidergawd, so I wasn’t aware. I’m going to update my old comment.

While the first recorded shows are coming in via DIME, only one or two are available on archive.org. This may have a few understandable reasons:

1. Tapers still on tour
2. Time required for careful editing and posting on the common
uploaders
3. Complicated and very slow upload on archive org

People like myself have contributed to raise expectations for the archive, but after recognizing especially point 3 have not yet come around to uploading. This is understandable, but should be dealt with.

My suggestion: Do not rely on people who manage the gathering of recordings and uploads on DIME and Motortrades such as Spacebandit and Stadtfelder to upload anything onto the archive – they’re doing a great job already and invest lots of their time. So let’s share efforts and start work ourselves.
If everybody who gets a quick and free download of one or several of this years’ concerts on DIME or Motortrades undertakes to upload at least one gig on archive.org, we will surely make progress there.

This will take a little time – let’s wait, till the tour is over, probably one or two weeks more, and then: Action!
(and I have to remind myself to put some effort behind my long words…)
