Is every fart worth a release?
I wonder what you think!
More and more, sid music is presented to us here on CSDB as single release. Some music is worth a release, even with a standard PSID screen. But, to me: Some are not!
Now I know what some of you might say: Taste differs and who are we to decide what is worth of a release?
(I believe we had that discussion with 'just some lame' graphician)
And I know there is not much we can do about it, than bully some people or try to ask some people to refrain from releasing stuff until at least 3 or 4 people say it's worthy of releasing
That being said, I was wondering that 99% of the sidmusic in HVSC was never released on CSDB as a single release. Who wants to take up that job?
And to taunt you even further: I still have 9873 unreleased worktunes, most are about 37 seconds long and sound like shite. Shall I..... ? |

You should combine them to a gigantic opus magnum, running for 4 days, 5 hours, 28 minutes and 21 seconds.
It would probably require some on-the-fly decrunching, though. :-) |

Sure, let's push HVSC into the 5xxxx range!
And while we are at it we need an API for CSDB so that such stuff could be uploaded conveniently and automated. So that I could put it right into my post-commit hooks, after all each of them is pure gold ;)
But back to reality. Unfortunately the days of swapping are over where bad stuff got only distributed to you if there was no new good stuff left.
Normally self critique should work, if you feel it did not, tell what you think of the release in question. It works for some people. Unfortunately practice shows that this might fail, then just ignore what you don't like.
Also I'm pretty sure no one will care in 3 days anyway when it disappears from sight by the next batch of releases. Just hope that those will be better ;) |

i can only repeat what was said more than once: come up with proper rules which then can (and: WILL) be applied to every (!) release. and dont come back back whining when your own stuff must go because of these rules :) so far none of those who complained dared to do it. |

Only compo entries make sense as far as "C64 Music" category is concerned. And let us rate sid's. |

There seems to be demand for HVSC "rated" service. Details could be a subject to specific thread. |

One more important fact to consider is that every fart IS, by definition, infact a release (of gas). |

this thread reminds me to old me, bitching in late 90's about too much hungarian diskmags, now there are none, and I whish they would be still around. |
