let me guess your another axxo fan...........lmao
Just to add to that. If you look on SCT at where the donation money goes, see how part of it goes to scene access for top uploaders?
The only reason music is a general exception to the need for scene access is because there are so many formats that the scene doesn't release in that it end ups being more of a farm industry with uploaders who specialize in particular formats. Just saying.

There is a reason why direct scene access is so rare: it's hard to get and hard to maintain and generally not worth it.
you're only taking speed into consideration and not content. Torrent sites don't upload 100% of the content available on the scene. I'm more interested in seeing how much is never seen by outsiders. As a utility maniac, I'm VERY curious. :naughty:
Re: Have your ever been "on the scene"?
Never personally been involved with the scene, but an old friend of mine had access to some local dumps and shared alot of stuff from there with me ;)
Re: Have your ever been "on the scene"?
