Figured this would be the right section to post this, though I could be wrong. So please hear me out. The idea is quite rough may need some polish.
Being predominantly a Usenet user for more a very long time and bounced around with torrents now and then, but always ended up going back
to usenet.
Now the thing is there is a lot of content on both platforms be it useful or be it junk. From my observation, which I think I am not the only one who would
have noticed this that, to some extent Usenet doesn't come close the content present on the so called major music trackers. Obviously the major labels
and artists are all present from pop, indie, rock, trance, hip hop, rnb, oldskool you name it, but by and large it still, doesn't that have much in other genres like
classical, soundtracks/scores, video game music/chip-tunes, bandcamp library and many more.
So I was thinking along the lines of whereby content is downloaded off major trackers - What/RuT/.... and upload them unto Usenet.
Obviously, this data transfer is going to be huge and an ongoing process, which I think that maybe a server could be rented as a transfer medium
Shouldn't be a problem, get a breakdown of cost required, and if need be would happily chip in.
I assume it's feasible.
Thoughts?
