Territory Restrictions


Max Kane

Recommended Posts

I know that Bjorn was having issue with these completely pointless enforcements & today i've found some too.

Both audiojelly & Beatport have for sale the Mr Sam album with brand new remixes & re-works entitled 'Interpretations'.

The Duderstadt Dub Mix of 'Tears' is the one I'm after, fantastic track, however both sites will not let me purchase due to territory restrictions :rolleyes:

I know the reason these are in place & that some UK label will be selling them later on but why should we wait for the release? Surely it's detrimental to the labels selling the tracks & of course to the artist?

If anyone can find me this track where i can actually download it i'd be most greatful.

rant over

Its pointless! They block the MP3's being being sold "out of territory", but the vinyl's can still be imported and sold by record shops in the UK - so it defeats the object.

It'll do more harm than good because it'll just encourage illegal rips. If people can't buy the MP3, they'll just ask their mate that bought it on Vinyl to rip it for them - resulting in a lost sale.

If a UK label wants to sign a tune, then they obviously have two options:

1. Sign it first before the international labels get their hands on it!

2. Release it the same day as the international release date.

Have managed to track down the releases I wanted at www.dance-tunes.com no territory restrictions there!

I recommend the track...

Mr Sam 'Lyteo' (Rank1 Remix - Jonas Steur Edit) takes the original Rank1 Mix which was class & adds a little to it
