Re: Your First Trade
Via MSN? Holy shit, that sounds weird to me.
By the way, I made my first ever trade on the Metallica DC (direct connect) hub. That was the best place ever, too bad that doesn't exist since November 2006.

Re: Your First Trade
my first trade was sometime in early '05...in 2004 (my first access to CABLE internet), i had built up a small collection of Metallica and Pantera (among others) audio bootlegs from p2p and I was hooked. For years I've been trying to get some friends of mine who really love music into collecting bootlegs but for some odd reason they don't seem to care. I don't understand how you can love music so much but not want to get these rare recordings of your favorite bands.

Re: Your First Trade
I first bought an Oasis bootleg cd in 99,then traded for more (I called it swapping then lol)
had about 80 or so....then just got fed up with it,and gave them all away....thought it was a pretty sad thing...oh the irony!!!
Anyway,my first trade was with Euge,he started me off in Metallica DVDs...i think that was the end of 2004,he then introduced me to Metpage..and the rest is history...so i blame you Eugene Pettit!!!!!

Re: Your First Trade
I started off collecting AC/DC bootlegs and often purchased a lot of shows on vinyl and silver cds back in the early 90s. In my quest to find more shows, I learned of sites (similar to meptage) where I could download live shows. Eventually I accumulated quite a collection and starting doing mp3 and cd trades via DC+ hubs, FTPs and IRC channels. I rarely did snail mail trades until I started trading Metallica lossless audio.
