I fucking HATE this broken system!

Every week at least a dozen threads are removed from search listings because some shitty PAID service - that labels pay to remove URLs of torrents/track downloads - decides that a post merely mentioning a track is breaking some sort of law.

You have to file a counter-claim to have it re-instated. I used to do them but I stopped a while back. The thread in question here is no big deal but it illustrates the stupidity of it all

Wait a second.

The thread doesn't even link to the damn track. you got a take down for people discussing a track in 2003?

ASOT makes all the shows/mixes available for download on their own site, yet TA has to take down a thread due to people discussing it?

It's true. That twat was literally uploading his ASOT weekly recordings to the pirate bay to spread his name/dominance everywhere, but if anyone else even discussed an ASOT track on a forum, they'd get a tack down notice. I know it was him (or one of his minions) on one occasion it hit TPB before the show actually aired.

Nice.
A bit different perhaps and off-topic but what about all the old 2001 and onwards A State of Trance radio shows put on Spotify, with sometimes multiple or even most tracks cut out and others reattached with new jingles. I didn't exactly have the impression they are high-quality files from the studio. Nice way of creating additional revenue I reckon. I must have contributed a penny or two when I listened to a few old tracks on there...

Doubtful it's about revenue tbh. Given than Lady Gaga got over 100 millions plays one year and made something like $6k for it, I doubt a ripped ASOT tune would make enough to buy a packet of crisps. Spotify's pay per stream for 2017 is $0.0038

I think what you experienced is probably more about people trying to promote their tracks and get their name out there. Swapped out tracks might be that artists didn't allow their content to be on spotify so the tracks were nixed in an effort to avoid a takedown request.

The ASOTs being uploaded to torrent sites were perfect quality, exactly edited and up within moments of the show going out, but again, in some instances there were questions about how they were uploaded before the show time. Not just that but there's a bigger copyright/usage issue relating to DJ sets on the whole (radio show or not) that's why I find the militant DCMA take downs for individual track content on ASOT content is a complete kick in the nuts.

i.e. It's only OK to share it if it benefits him and other people's material is jingle branded as ASOT content but you better not lift an individual track from it or even discuss in isolation or you'll get shut down.
