Interesting request and a quandary of sorts for the digital age. The Dude here will have to shell out much more than the 6 dollars and change to legally hear the new MMJ EP. He's not asking for At Dawn or Z, which were released in a traditional marketing. he's asking for the EP released on I-Tunes.
Should music have such monetary restrictions? Especially since only 20-25% of the planet has access to the internet?
hhhmmmmmmm :( :( :( :(
If "The Dude" sends me a self addressed envelope with $5.94 in it, I will buy the CD again, and mail it to him thereby solving this small dilemma.

And that's what should happen...short of sending $5.94 to the band.
My buddy wanted a copy of Keller Williams "Home" cd. The liner notes said something like, "If you burn a copy of this cd, send $5 to..........." My buddy wouldn't do it. I wound up putting a $5 bill in an envelope and mailing to the address. No note or anything. I'm not sure if it made it or not, but my piracy conscience is clear.
Funny, I think Kory said it already. Can't believe someone has the balls to come onto the band's site and ask for this. What does a trade help the band out with??

so, he should have to upgrade his computer to hear this? Spend a couple of hundred dollars in order to hear a 6 dollar EP?
Remember, he's not asking for a copy of At Dawn or Z (now that would be lame), he's asking for a copy that he cannot "legally" obtain without shelling out lots of money.

it is what it is. hell, someone here has offered to burn it for the cost of the ep.
there were costs associated in the production of this and its only the right the band gets whats owed to them.
send the $6, get the ep.
:closed
Maybe they should have thought about the consumer before Z infected my computer.
Yes I too do not have Itunes.. Nor can my ancient cpu support it.. So i'm a little upset on how the boys released this one.. I won't ask for a copy because I feel that's cheating them out of money.. And I love these guys.. but one day I do hope to hear/own this EP... Maybe they could do a stream one day so we don't own it..So we can just cuddle up on a bench and hear the magic of the candles and panties.. :-/

Listen I dont know why everyone on here gets so defensive about sharing their (MMJ) music. I understand, Id love to download the EP I would IF I HAD A NEWER COMPUTER. I have no money to buy a new computer. Im sure, like mostly everyone on here that we've given MMJ lots of money. And I know how this works everyone has to argue about it. If you arent willing to help a fan out then dont post.
And If no one wants to hook me up then I'll find another way. And to whomever said "hows a trade going to help the band" It wont, but it's just me being nice and I'd hook someone else up with some cool cds.
QuoteMaybe they should have thought about the consumer before Z infected my computer.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think the band knew about all the weird shit that went on with Z until after it was already released. And didn't they also send new copies to fans who asked for them?

Hell, management burned copies off their computers to send to fans who wrote them and asked.

I find it hard to believe that you don't know anyone who owns A NEWER COMPUTER that can download and burn it for you.
QuoteWhat sort of infection was this?
It was copy protection bullshit that infected peoples computers with spyware and all that good shit. I still have a copy of Z that would do that if I put it in my PC.

I hear ya. I just don't get why you had to quote the most reasonable response to your thread to prove your point.
Seriously though (seriously) why is this not a reasonable request of The Dude? I mean, I see people posting threads all the time asking for suggestions for the "ultimate" MMJ mix to GIVE to their friends/ family and people give suggestions and no one complains then about taking money out of the band's pockets.
So how/why is this different? It seems like the exact same as the other. I am wondering why the double standard exists.

Yeah, I seriously was not trying to be a smart ass on this one. I thought I had come up with a fairly nice way of making everybody happy as well as going out of my way at no real advantage to myself. :-/
Thank you to the people who responded. Im not going to keep arguing on here back and forth. I knew this post would do that. I just thought asking a few fans on here who love this band, that they would help another fan out. I dont know anyone who has iTunes. I would do the same for anyone else.
Tracy, thanks for the posts.
The Dude
So I guess you won't take me up on my offer, which kind of proves that your story is bullshit.
Thank you for your offer but someone PMed me earlier. And relax, no need to swear on here.
This is stupid.

By that theory, it's no different for me to give my friend a mix tape to try to turn him on to new bands, or uploading a new CD for all the world to take for free. It's not really black and white in my opinion. This obviously falls somewhere in between. I have no problem with the dude asking, but I tried to come up with a way to solve the problem that he said he had, but it looks like he was really just trying to not pay for it. Which is fine, but just say that next time.
Seriously "The Dude", let's not make a huge deal out of this, I just think the bands website is the wrong place to ask for a free copy of something, that's all.

Why couldn't you just illegally download it like a normal person and not cause all this drama?
I could see if you were making a point about an iTunes exclusive, but it appears you were just trying to deceive fans into giving you a free copy.
It IS an interesting dilemma, though, but I'll try to stay out of this one. ;)

You're a good man for trying aMD. Gosh I know this is killing you. ;)
I dunno, the fact that it isn't available for everyone sort of turns me off. I-Tunes ain't exactly a mom and pop operation, ya know.
Maybe they'll release it on disc so anyone has a chance to purchase it.

That would be cool, but something tells me the iTunes people might have a problem with that.

So, you have no friends or family that have a computer with itunes on it? I have a hard time believing this. Unless you live in a cave with an old computer, you should be able to ask someone you know to download the song and burn it to a CD for you. I must know...what kind of computer do you have?

If he doesn't have a computer with iTunes, he will most likely doesn't have an address. Maybe he has a pigeon post with a couple of carrier pigeons... ;D
well, i meant i'd send a copy of a video i made (on beta max) of finger puppets of the band singing along to the songs in the background. mr. forum-moderator, please don't boot me off for trying to steal from the boys

Yeah, me too.
Is it you singing or the original song in the background?
that actually sounds pretty funny. Are they the band member finger puppets? Does Carl have th fu Manchu mustache?

Beck used marionettes, so I think this has potential. I would also like to be on the waiting list.

Well, I did not know that I tunes files were DRM files, versus Mp3, and wont interface with non IPOD brands. So I d/l I tunes, bought the EP, but could not transfer to my non I pod :-/. I then burned the ep to a disc using I tunes. I then erased all remnants of Itunes from my computer. When I went to burn the songs to WMP, it worked great, I just had to add my labels. I hate Itunes

None of that was necessary. No offense, but it sounds like you hate iTunes because you have no clue what you are doing. You could have just done this:
