I'm ripping some CDs onto my computer...[views:7561][posts:34]_____________________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:13pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] I'm trying to back up every CD I own, and I've run into a little conondrum. I have the edition of Exhumed's "Slaughtercult" that is shaped like a saw blade, and I'm wondering if it will actually work in my computer (it's not a tray, it's in the style of a car CD player I guess you could say). Anyone know if I'm safe to try it? |
| ______________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:14pm - Yeti ""] i wouldnt recommend it. my first copy of Dimmu's "Spiritual Black Dimensions" had one of those shape cuts, it had points cut out of the pentagram on it, and it almost mangled my cd drive. it started making these fucked up grinding noises. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:14pm - the_reverend ""] yes, safe to try. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:14pm - Yeti ""] i think the weight gets thrown off. |
| _____________________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:15pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] rev, are you fucking with me? |
| ______________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:15pm - Yeti ""] well then. the rev is more inclined to computer knowledge, so do as you see fit. i've just had bad experiences with those. i hate the shape cds. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:19pm - the_reverend ""] if it plays in a regular CD player and you don'thave a slot-loading cd-rom, you will be find as long as the weight is semi-balanced. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:20pm - Yeti ""] yeah mine was slot-loading. they say on the cd case "NOT FOR USE IN CAR STEREOS". it will fuck your shit up. |
| _____________________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:21pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] all right, i'm going to try it. but if it fucks up my drive, i'm going to make you buy me a new one rev, haha. especially since it's my birthday today, and a broken cd rom drive is not a good birthday present. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:24pm - Aegathis ""] dont do it dude! when that cd came out i tried playing it in my car cd player and it broke it. That was in my 1st car too, and i remember it being in like early june. Needless to say it wrecked my whole summer, not being able to listen to music in my car. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:24pm - Yeti ""] if it sounds like its spinning at 1000 mph, take it out. thats the first sound mine made before other more unsettling noises started. |
| _____________________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:26pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] i'm not going to try it after reading what anthony said, haha. i'll just have to have someone with a tray-loading cd-rom rip it for me. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:30pm - the_reverend ""] yes, I said if you have a slot loader, don't do it |
| _____________________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:34pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] my reading comprehension isn't up to par today apparently. |
| _____________________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:36pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] the_reverend said:yes, I said if you have a slot loader, don't do it haha, wait a minute! you said "yes, safe to try" first. you are the john kerry of cd-rom drive politics. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:39pm - the_reverend ""] it's safe to try with the cavet of "you aren't using a slot loader" or voting on iraq. |
| _____________________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 3:41pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] well, if you read the original post, i said: "it's not a tray, it's in the style of a car CD player I guess you could say" heyo. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 4:13pm - the_reverend ""] what if my car has a dashboard the opens up? like a flip-top |
| _____________________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 4:51pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] then you have a retarded car. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 7:01pm - TheAccursedDrummer ""] If it's on your laptop, just bring it by to practice and rip it with my copy, that is unfortunately NOT shaped like a sawblade, you lucky shit. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 7:39pm - TheAccursedDrummer ""] P.S. Happy Birthday biatch. |
| _____________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 8:45pm - xanonymousx ""] try putting some tape around the edges to make it round i never tried it it may be an idea though. |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 14,2007 10:20pm - powerkok ""] Happy Fucking Birthday Mark Fucking Richards. |
| ______________________________________________ [Jun 15,2007 11:41am - MarkFuckingRichards ""] haha, thanks chris and kok. i'll definitely rip your copy chris...but does it have the bonus track?! |
| _____________________________________________________ [Jun 15,2007 12:31pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] Am I a day late now? Fuck. Well happy birthday. It evens up because I wished you a happy birthday the day before your birthday, too. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jun 15,2007 3:19pm - TheAccursedDrummer ""] MarkFuckingRichards said:haha, thanks chris and kok. i'll definitely rip your copy chris...but does it have the bonus track?! Not sure, but you can check. Either way I can find it and get it to you as well. |
| _____________________________________________ [Jun 15,2007 3:34pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] no prob mike. sounds like a plan chris. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 15,2007 3:56pm - Aegathis ""] Hey Mark i just ripped one, its got your name all over it man:spineyes: |
| ____________________________________________________ [Jun 15,2007 4:27pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] It's everybody's fucking birthday this week, Mark, Pam, me, my sister. Boo! |
| _____________________________________________ [Jun 16,2007 2:42am - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Aegathis said:Hey Mark i just ripped one, its got your name all over it man:spineyes: you are too kind. i ripped several for you, and they are all delicious. |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 16,2007 12:17pm - metalguy ""] I actually kind of wish that my copy had not the shaped cd.... Wanna trade? Maybe I will listen to it a bit more. |
| ______________________________________________ [Jun 16,2007 10:12pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] i'm too much of a collector to give up a shaped cd (or a 3" cd), but it's a pain in the ass |
| _____________________________________ [Jun 17,2007 2:21am - Mike_Giallo ""] I once owned 3 different released of Slaughtercult. Good cd. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 17,2007 7:39am - hungtableed ""] hahaha, I actually had that same version of that cd like 6-7 years ago. I bought and tried to put it in my car cd player and it got jammed half-way in! I finally rigged it out but my cd player thought that there was a cd in there still and wouldn't let me put another disc in. What I had to do was unplug the power cables to my cd player and it reset it self. In the end, I took the shit back and got a regular shaped version. |
