i have only been trading a year as well and look at my list( www.maxpages.com/djboots) so the above list is small compared to the length of time hes been at it!!SPS

But when he started the internet wasn't around-trading would be much harder without the internet. But I can imagine your list list would still be about 5 times longer than his if you'd been trading for 17 years!

Do you also upload bootlegs? (mp3)

No. MP3 bootlegs are every traders nightmare-we don't need more of them!!!

I'm not even trader! I've got one bootleg, and I downloaded it, nothing wrong with it.

Whats the problem? Is it poor quality cd recordings or is it actually getting a cd full of MP3s because I can imagine the latter would suck donkey balls [!--emo&

Getting a CD full of MP3 tracks. They have gaps, which is really annoying and the quality is bad. VERY bad sometimes.

Mp3's are bad, mmmkay. Nothing wrong with downloading them for your own pleasure, but most traders won't go near them.
General rule of thumb when dealing with serious traders - if you've got MP3 sourced bootlegs, SAY SO. Ditto non "disc at once" recordings too. I've figured out how to edit the gaps out using Nero, but it's a tedious process that I prefer to avoid.

If you have a good cd ripper and the bootleg cd is good quality, the mp3's should be the same! Well, if the mp3's are ripped at a bitrate of 192 or at least 128.
Not all mp3's are bad quality! And I think it's much easier, if someone just uploads the bootleg for you, and you can download it, and you upload your bootleg, so the other can download it.

Guess its a matter of opinion. My suggestion is you state either way before trading to save arguments [!--emo&--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/wink.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'wink.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

You MUST say if there's gaps, or you end up on a bad trader list.
