VIPMusic may be shutting down?

So the owner of VIP is MIA and they might be shutting down. Going to remake on a new server? Where is everyone going to go for music now?

I've got my electronic music more than covered... and I use SoulSeek for pretty much every else. I can get it for free and don't have to worry about the Nazi Pig. :fist:

vip has been on the decline for a while now. i spoke once to an admin there for a while and he told me that they were having a issue with there coder and ask me if i knew how to code. dead giveaway to a trackers closing.

Re: VIPMusic may be shutting down?

I'd say softmp3 and STMusic are a lot like VIPMusic,
even SCC gets a lot of the same stuff,
I mean they're all pretty much scene 0day music releases, aren't they?

Re: VIPMusic may be shutting down?

Essentially yes, but VIPmusic has some huge (0day) discographies and music DVD-Rs.

Due to the fact that one of our developers has gone missing (we fear the worst), VIPmusic might suspend its operations.

He is the one who has complete access to the server based on certain IP range therefore other admins can't do much about it. We can pay bills but it wouldn't make sense to do so because we don't have root access (even if the site is running very smoothly - 13:23:29 up 110 days, 7:29, 0 users, load average: 0.49, 0.64, 0.63). Although paying bills might be a possibility.
Any suggestions are welcome.

im sure there will be alot of people using up there buffers. i know i am!

hopefull the admin isnt sleeping with the fishes

Re: VIPMusic may be shutting down?

The problem it's that and seems like nobody have a way to be in touch with admin and the worst thing it's that he is the man who pay bills every month and they have to pay next bill in a week or something.

Umm Vipmusic has a great design, great uploads (sometimes), good speed, varity... a great tracker in my opinion so it would be a big lost.

But hopefully I preffer other trackers.
