“The Fugazi Live Series site, when we realized the Internet, the way it works - the speeds and its development - made it possible to have one source of infinite copies, was incredible for us. Using tapes or CD's to make copies would have been so unwieldy. We have shows that have zero downloads, which makes me sad, but they're all freely available at any time. The most downloaded show was the one with the best audio quality, but I didn't think it was a very interesting show.” ThinkingWayHas BeensMadeShowsInterestingQualitySourceDevelopmentInternetInfiniteSeriesIncrediblesAvailableSpeedMade ItCopiesZeroTapeSiteVery InterestingCdsDownloadsAudio Author:Ian MacKaye

It's just a way of exploiting them.” WayWantDifferentHelpingCitiesStageDevelopmentTerribleTradeShouldersEmpiresRegionsCopiesTradingTerrible ThingsStages Of Development Author:Jane Jacobs
