The demise of What.cd

[captsis]

What.cd is gone. Quite possibly the largest library of music ever created is gone forever. I hope this isnt against the rules but this is huge. I highley doubt any other tracker will be able to fill the shoes of what.

It is against TOS. I think as long as discussion doesn't devolve into where to go next and alternatives, you will be fine.

I wonder what happened. I know a few trackers got taken down from ddos attacks recently but this is obviously something else. what terrible news....

Hilariously enough another tracker that was championed as a replacement (shall not be named) went out a bang before it even started! Every user was made and admin after someone hacked an admin account. Throughout its short existance people were weary about their lack of concern about opsec. LOL

Thankfully there is a promising successor out there.

Ah true. I misread the announcement.

There's also an alternative file sharing program that's harbouring a lot of refugees.

Do Chinese make good electronic music? I was always dissapointed that I never heard anything Japanese that was akin to cEvin Key, AFX, or Autechre. I would have thought so due to their seemingly techno culture.

I really like Phil Western's stuff as well.

We don't have refined iterations of electronic techno ,, YET..  the kids in China have only recently been able to afford the equipment to play with this sort of thing.

Aren't they the ones who manufactured it in the first place?

Well, income has only risen in the past 20 years.. so.. as far as kids playing with this stuff.. it's very recent.

Was devastated by the news, still don't feel whole. what was one of the top 3 forums I've frequented in my time on the Web, along with GH and CAL. GH is the only one standing

Interesting! did you play on domes?

That reminds me of my old XBOX live friends that formed a no-scoping clan in COD MW. those were the days.

Oh yeah, was well before my discovery of sweet, sweet mechanical keyboards. I thought all keyboards were the same, and mice were where the action was. Oh how wrong I was. Forgot about clans, I was a part of a small forum for a clan I was in before CAL which was a lot of fun!

Never saw much of a mechanical presence on what.cd though, I looked about a month back and found like two small old threads that didn't amount to much. The personalities of the PU and Elite boards were funny though. Drugs on PU, sex on the Elite board. I imagine TM must have been rock n' roll hahaha.

I was only there a short time and never really looked at the forums. Funny thing is that it appears that several members of GH were also on what. small world i guess.

The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Shame for it to go like this...
