Any chance someone could up the new surround 4.0 Brussells posted at DIME?.....Thx very much
Why has it been banned on Dime?
I think because of this ;
Recordings (audio or video) captured from such a channel or station, regardless of who produced it or who aired it first;
Part 1: Material and Content
All torrents must be of music-related content.
No audio torrent may distribute any lossily compressed music [e.g. MP3, VQF, OGG, or audio extracted from digitized videos (other than audio extracted from those DVDs that are explicitly known to have lossless LPCM audio)]. This rule is relaxed only for the particular situations detailed on the page at this link in this wiki. That article also covers MiniDisc recordings as well as lossy webcasts and digital satellite broadcasts.
No torrent may distribute any official material. That term includes:
All official releases, in print or out of print, whether sold world-wide or only in certain areas;
Upcoming official releases announced by the artist or the label;
Alternate recording sources of any officially released performance, unless the artist's published policy for trading permits collectors to continue trading them after another capture has been released officially;
The audio of any performance used as the sound on officially released video material - even if the recording is from another source than that the sound in the officially available material;
Video material whose audio portion has officially released content (for example, music videos and other promotional videos: even if the visual footage is unreleased, almost all of them use an edit of the official audio for their sound; for another example, television appearances where performers mime or lip-synch to playback of the official audio release);
Remixes, remasters, alternate mixes, and alternate edits of any official material;
Older official material that may have lapsed into the public domain by the mere passage of time without formal release by act of the rightsholder: copyright durations vary from country to country and are frequently extended by new legislation, so on DIME the only safe rule is once official, forever official;
Because subscription cable/satellite/broadcast services (such as XM Radio and SIRIUS among others) and premium cable/satellite channels (suchas HBO, Showtime, Canal+ [and subsidiary channels such as Canal Jimmy], Wowow, Mezzo [and channels it owns, such as Muzzik], Premiere [of Germany], SkyPerfecTV, and Globosat, among others) assert and enforce copyrights on all their content, even that which airs unencrypted, the following are prohibited official material:
Recordings (audio or video, from any source) of material that was produced by or for such a station or channel [in the absence of contrary evidence, we will infer that the content was produced for the first channel that aired it],
and
Recordings (audio or video) captured from such a channel or station, regardless of who produced it or who aired it first;
Material that has aired in a pay-per-view event on any station or channel, even if the torrent's copy is derived from another source;
Content presented to a paying audience at another time or another location than those of the live performance, such as a broadcast via closed-circuit television or a showing in a theater;
Material distributed to fan club members as part of the membership package included in their club dues;
A bonus or a premium acquired by paying for something else, such as the purchase of another recording, a magazine, a book, or a concert ticket, or such as a charitable or political donation;
So called "bastard" mixes and DJ sets;
Extensive selections from the lyrics of any published song, or the entirety of such lyrics, whether as text or in an image, beyond a short excerpt.
No torrent may distribute any material of artists, either individuals or bands, who do not agree to the electronic distribution of their unofficially recorded live shows. For a list of bands/artists see article Not Allowed Artists and Bands.
No torrent may distribute recordings made at the venues or events listed in the article Not Allowed Venues/Events.
