a... >_< well yes it is but they dont sell it in DVDs... >_< unlike japan does
uwaa.... thank you

I would say that would be O.K. :shrug
That's my opinion, though. Not my decision.

I mean, technically, it isn't a SONG or an .mp3, it's just a video, whereas jaro said, you can't buy these on DVDs. You can't really get them anywhere but computers and televisions. :shrug
dunno.

its true. Americans dont release that kind of stuff.


it sucks. but they did say "commercially" available. Maybe like iTunes or something?

or we can um link you to yahoo music! :)

something i suggest is goin to www.singingfish.com and searching for whatever you need there,legal and no hassle of forum rules.

^ Or youtube? :shrug

=x she might have released her MVs. If she released a a tour dvd or a live dvd they could be on their. I got the yeah yeah yeahs live dvd and it came with their MVs =\

Seriously, just go get LimeWire and download whatever you want. x___x Ever since I got it, I don't request much. Although you should use it wisely and for evaluation purposes.

Since we have since changed the Downloads section to the "Asian Downloads Section" I would say that we no longer accept threads requesting any type of American music (.mp3, video, etc). However, there are plenty of other forums and sites with such downloads.

It's kinda Illegal to have, ya'know.. Though, I know you buy most of yuurr CDs..

Yes it illegal, but so is sharing files online at forums.. x___x Yeah, I buy most of my CDs, I love owning them, its like Confessions Of A Shopaholic, but with CDs involved instead of shoes and scarves and random shiny objects.

True, and True. I want to order a few CDs today, and put about $100 away towards a laptop i want :D $499 for a laptop? Great Price! I especially love CDs with pretty covers.. like RAINBOW.. :luv2 and like Duty...oo so pretty. The golden shininess cannot be scanned! That's why all the scanned ones looks kinda crappy :D.
SO yeah, Orenji, you should just try limewire. I mean, music videos shouldn't be as illegal as the actual music, c'uz you can't really get em. :D

^ Dont forget though, some artistes releases DVDs.. Tori Amos just did it, she released a PV collection titled Fade To Red, and so now downloading her PVs are probably illegal.. Ayumi has always done it I guess..

^ True again...

Ayu was the one that started the CD+DVD stuff. But I think the Japanese music industry is the only one who releases almost every type of media they can try to sell (CD, DVD, Tour DVD, Calendar, Photobook, etc.). So basically, I think Japan really started the revolution of DVDs. I just saw an informercial(sp?) for Radio Disney's new compilation, and they're releasing a DVD too. But I know Jesse McCartney is on it, and he has a link with Avex.

is it okay to request HQ covers / scans of US artists product?

^ Requesting them here would not be against the rules, however:
There are more appropriate places elsewhere - and some sites are dedicated to that need.

and \/Instrumentals are subject to the same copyright laws as songs with vocals, so no, unfortunately not.


[My replying here might sound a little hypocritical since I offer so much for download, but >95% of what I share is not actually available for purchase]

I'm not into US music, that's why I didn't sign up on the forums....:lol: I'm just curious about their covers and stuffs...

ah well, I may going off-topic, but is it okay to request instrumental english songs? Like instrumental jazz/classics....perhaps instrumental of US artist song....since it doesn't include the artist's vocal

No. If it is released in the USA in any form you may not request it.
