Why aren't sharethreads a thing anymore
Because streaming
>>122916932because rapidshare and megaupload went away.
>>122916932No one would contribute.
You can find anything on youtube
Also, no one knows shit about music here anymore and we patricians see no point in putting in any effort anymore.
>>122916932music streaming is easier
>>122916970>>122918881The point was to share obscure shit you couldn't find anywhere else. Stuff that wasn't on streaming, youtube, p2p fileshare clients, or torrents. Sure some people just used it to share whatever they downloaded from Soulseek that week, but it was more about sharing and preserving obscure music.
>>122916932Streaming ruined /mu/. People no longer search for obscure stuff. They just sit around waiting for Spotify to recommend them old pitchforkcore bands like Grandaddy or Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and then they pat themselves on the back for listening to "obscure" music
>>122916932You ruined it. And now you must pay.
>>122918927for me it wasnt about how hard stuff was to get. since people mostly share stuff they like I saw sharethreads as lists of recommendations
> Death of Rapidshare/Megaupload> Mediafire enforces copyright claims> Torrents became less popular because many of the best sites got taken down> SEO & AI ruined organic discovery on the internet> Streaming successfully reduced the prevalence and popularity of piracy, at least for music> Anons grew up and moved on> New users have always lived with today's internet and do not know what they missed out onThat's basically it.
>>122918927You can find obscure shit on youtube now
>>122919619There is also still a lot of stuff that isn't on youtube.
>>122916932Soulseek
>>122916932mediafire and megaupload are kill
>>122919026This nigga has never heard of loser - the chisel
>>122916932Old /mu/ was so shit everyone left and it became a ghost town which got taken over by Swifties and K-pop Stans. Sadly there are still a handful of geriatric boomer leftovers from those days who have nowhere else to go and cannot remove their nostalgia glasses. They spend most of their time reminiscing about 'le good old days' and seething at zoomers. Make no mistake, there's a good reason why old /mu/ died.
>>122916932I blame /pol/
>>122919768i'm on here to troll the zoomers.
Normies invaded and ruined everything
>>122916970>>122919594This and >grateful dead schizo requesting an album that he had mislabeled and refused to pull his head out of his ass and instead trolled every share thread out of spite >the same two shills constantly spamming their garbo in every share thread and derailing threads with shitty troll behavior
>>122919768>there's a good reason why old /mu/ diedthisall the tripgods left. without tripgods to curate /mu/ culture, the board was doomed
YouTube recommends me better music than you fags
whatever the reason, i'm just glad that there was sharethreads. found out about freddie gibbs and a whole bunch of doom metal bands because of those.
>>122919940Thinking about it, youre probably right. Without Tripfags to keep Anons under control, shitposting is always going to take over.
>>122919940>>122920122you anons are couldn't be more wrong. tripfags have always been annoying attention seeking losers whose only value is to say idiotic things into the void for a crumb of (you)s. anon is strong, intelligent and highly independent and never needed some tripnigger to guide their taste. personally i blame kpop and poptimisim in general for diluting the quality of users and ruining our humble community of music appreciating patricians
>>122919768the old /mu/ vanguard is what keeps this place useable, a lot of /mu/core is still better than the majority of artists talked about on here
>>122920220idk senpai. NMH is, was, and always be garbage.
>>122920216clearly untrue because peak /mu/ had the highest proportion of tripgods on the whole site, and board quality is much worse now with practically no tripgodskpoop is totally irrelevant, the koomers stay contained and everyone else filters the threads and never even sees them.
>>122920216Yup. Tripfags are scum
>>122920268none of us who were tripfags want to even remember that period of our lives. It was like a highschool lunch room full of cliques, retarded drama, bullying, gossiping. Certain trips hated each other and shat up threads measuring e-penises, and one chick even got her nudes leaked. It was a total shitshow that none of us want brought into our real lives, which is why most of us stopped tripping. We grew up. >>122920330is correct.
>>122920386youre describing the behaviour of a small handful of easily filtered clowns. if you got drawn into that kind of shit, it was your own fault.
There is not a single tripfag worth remembering or reminiscing about.
>>122920487i mean was the gorespammer climaxia's fault?
>>122916932wayne garf posted his albums in them and made the op seethe into a heart attack
>that faggot that kept posting his stupid hillbilly folk pop album >/prod/ fags shilling their bandcamp crap as le hidden artists
I used to post with a trip, but solely when I was posting or sharing music. It wasn't so that I'd have some persona and banter, it was only for other people that may share my taste to know they might be into whatever I'd posted. Back then share threads and giving recs was far more common, so I would have occasion for it often. The stupid drama, be it feuds or even other trips talking to or about me positively, I shunned.
>>122920630are you drum n bass label share friend??? cause if you are, i still wanna download all of the metalheadz and black sun empire you got.
also i kind of miss the gore spammer. see a thread you don't like??? post the key words in the thread and it got shat upon.
>there are people here who actually miss tripfagsPut your trip back on. Not that it would do you any good. The world has moved on. You will be buried in the ashes of the old world, a bygone relic from a forgotten age.
>>122916932mu died
I'm Batman
I am the walrus
>>122916932>Why aren't sharethreads a thing anymoreI shut them down because all the music in them was shit
>>122916932honestly i still find good stuff on here sometimesstina nordenstam is probably the most recent one
>>122919768/thread
>>122916932I don't like your haircut.
>>122916932Because I said so
>>122916932I shared everything already and newfags know they can’t compete.
I just jumped on here after years of not using this website to see if there was a sharethread and I'm pre sad to see it not a thing anymore. Would find something good fairly often.
>>122916932There are enough music preservation channels on youtube for my favorite genres that I don't really care anymore. /mu/ is just for shitposting now.
>>122928090>music preservation>youtubeLossy compression isn't preservation.
Isn't every thread with music shared a share thread? I've tried ignoring this thread but christ I've downloaded so much music this last few months
>>122920233That's just wrong aeroplane is a God tier album and anyone with functioning ears would know that. Production and songwriting alone
>>122928114pretending you notice a difference (when there is none) preserves your virginity, though
Buyfags are the answer to the zoomer problem
>>122919594>> Mediafire enforces copyright claimsmega has started to do this as well. not to the same extent that makes mediafire useless but enough to make me cautious
>>122920577>>that faggot that kept posting his stupid hillbilly folk pop albumsomeone apparently got filtered. kek
There's a sharethread like every couple months here. Go check the fucking archives retarded hwh*toid
>>122928252>every couple of monthsThat's the problem, idiot
>>122920220Radiohead's midVelvet Underground's mediocreZiggie Stardust sucksREM sucksThe Smiths are midThe Beatles are midWish You Were Here is midRemain in Light is midMadvilliany is mediocreWeezer is just OKLoveless is just OKBuilt to Spill is just OKFishmans sucksNot that there isn't plenty of good mucore, but it's hardly a bastion of taste
