Just a few small rules:
1. I do not sell recordings. Please
don't ask; any such requests will be ignored.
2. No Mp3 sourced material!
3. I am don't care about CD brand
names, but discs should be burned at a low speed (4X), and D.A.O. (No 2-second
gaps!)
4. Finally, if we have not traded
before, you must be willing to send first.
With that rubbish out of the way, on to the boots!
