ATTENTION : I made the font smaller so it is now easier to view my shows. (You're welcome.)

I usually burn with Sony, TDK, Fuji, HP and Verbatim. Cheap no-name CD-Rs are a big no-no. Please let me know if you have a problem with these brands, I'm sure something can be arranged.

Some Trading Rules

1. I use an AMD XP 1900+  (f.y.i. - Overclocked by + 112MHz)  + w/ 512 MB RAM & Windows XP.  I Burn Onto A Yamaha CRW-2100EZ burner (16x 10x 40x).  I use Clone CD 4.0.0.1 for ALL CD burning.  (Click HERE To See Why I Use  CloneCD Instead Of EAC)

2. Only use DAO "Disc-At-Once" when you burn. (TAO "Track-At-Once" puts 2 seconds in between each track which is terrible for live recordings)

3. Use EAC (Exact Audio Copy) when burning for accurate, bit-for-bit results. If you don't have it, you can get it HERE.

4. Try to be honest and prompt, because I am when it comes to trading shows. (I know I can be a hypocrite when it comes to this, like I have many times, but I will try to keep in touch)

5. I try to provide as much information as I can so please try to do the same.

6. NOTHING here is for sale!!!! Money is good but not for trading!!!!

7. Please get out there and buy these artists' CD's, otherwise we couldn't trade great digital shows like we do today.

8. And no, "SBD" DOES NOT MEAN "silent but deadly"!!!!!!

Also, the shows I have that are on CASSETTE will be in RED. BUT = I very seldomly trade cassettes, because it takes a generous amount of time for me to dub them and I just don't have the equipment, but I am in the process of transferring my cassettes onto CD-R. Please bare with me during this process.
