Glen, You need to stop posting on the mailing list. Its over. I feel it's stealing. I feel music is their property. There fore the definition backs me up. Backs up the way I feel. Will it hold up in court? Of course not we are not in court. We are just discussing how we feel. Many people feel the way I do. Many feel the way you do. It's not right or wrong to think either way. Your not going to change the way I feel. So there is no need for you to continue. I have a friend who arrived in Berlin today. They saw a Touch Yello poster outside the Kino. Pretty exciting.

Klort, This article has been on the internet for sometime. I am well aware of Dieter's feelings on Music downloading. I agree with him in the fact that the industry is changing and will have to adapt to its environment. But I also agree with the interviewer who states: "The internet is a great way to get yourself known. Its just that it's not structured in such a way that you can earn any money." Because of the internet it is getting increasingly difficult for artists to make money. Every free download that that the artist is not paid for hurts the artist. Have you heard this news recently? The Music Industry wants to get paid for downloads of films and TV shows, and 30-second song samples. Artists are struggling to make money. The main reason is the internet. This is a hard time for artists and the fans should be behind them, helping them by making sure they get paid. The last thing we should be doing is posting their music online for everyone to download for free. But lets get back on YELLO. This is a big week for them. The whole music industry dilemma can be argued forever. If you wish to continue trying to "start something" all you will get from me is one of these. :)

>"The internet is a great way to get yourself known. Its just that it's not structured in such a >way that you can earn any money." LOL!!! Say this to the owners of google, amazon, and some other million people who made their fortune on the Internet. Serge, =================== The comment was talking about individual artists in the music industry. Jade Davies was the female vocalist on The Eye. I did not like her voice and I am a big fan of female jazz vocalists. Heidi Happy on the other hand has one of the most easy listening voices I have heard in a long time. I love her tracks. "You Better Hide" which was created for the last Bond movie would of been a great Bond track. To bad it wasn't finished in time. Also love "Stay" and I am looking forward to her duet with Boris on I believe it's "Kiss In Blue"

Not the Deluxe 6 panel 20 page booklet digipak version. Ideal Copy is the first USA store to handle the import. Ideal Copy is a great company. Friendly service and great communication.

Last I checked this is not a court of law. Its a public social chat list. Where we discuss how we feel about things. Laws don't dictate the way a person feels. Even though the law states it is not stealing I still "feel" it is. As do many people. If the law states the speed limit is 65 that means if I go 66 I am speeding. I don't feel going 66 is speeding. Probably everyone on this list doesn't think going 66 is speeding. Most law officers would not think you were speeding at 66. But according to the law you are. But that doesn't stop the way we feel. I feel downloading a song without paying for it is stealing. Many people feel this way. We are not saying "The law states this is stealing". We are saying we feel it is stealing. If people never thought differently then the law then laws would never be changed. There are still crazy "I can't pet the back of my neighbors goat" laws still in existence today. Klort, btw, I'm still "KING OF THE LIST!" <(Bones reference) But none of us are quite sure what you are. The show is over people ...move along. ... lets get back to Yello talk.

Ideal Copy now has it available for pre-order with a scheduled release of October 6th. It is the DigiPak version with the 20 page booklet. They said their price should drop by the release date as they find more import sources. They are out of Los Angeles if I remember right. http://idealcopy.american-data.net/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Produ… KING OF THE LIST! hoo haa! :)

OK ? ============================ Well in this case the "messenger" knew very well what he was bringing us. The album isn't released for 4 more days. Somehow he has 8 high quality tracks from that album. Hmmmm? yeah nothing wrong there. I'll just give these tracks to God knows who on a mailing list. Now you are saying we should forgive and forget. I guess so in the future anyone who gets their hands on illegal downloads can feel safe to post them here. Cause we'll forgive ya. Thats just the type of attitude that enables acts like this to continue. What was done was WRONG! As adults we take responsibility for our actions. We learn by our mistakes and hopefully this will not happen again. I'm not saying Serge is a bad guy. I'm saying he made a bad choice. This list is for YELLO fans. We should not tolerate any behavior that is disrespectful to YELLO.
