and rightly so, chris smith aka Chris Kross got what was coming to him. Not only was he dishonest and stealing other peoples work he is a prick.
quote:
165 The distinguishing feature which, above all else, calls for a very large award of additional damages against Mr Smith and Tower is the threats made by Mr Smith to Mr Kearney and Mr Williams.
166 The threats were made by Mr Smith and he has a higher degree of culpability than Tower but I reject the submission that Mr Smith made the threats in his personal capacity. The evidence shows that Mr Smith made the threats to put pressure on Universal and Central Station to grant to Tower licences which those companies were otherwise unwilling to enter into. No one from Tower came forward to disavow the actions of Mr Smith and the SMS messages were sent on Tower’s behalf.
167 In awarding additional damages, the Court marks its disapproval of the respondent’s conduct, bearing in mind the matters referred to in s 115(4)(b). Here I must mark my disapproval of Mr Smith and Tower’s conduct in very strong terms. There was a strong undercurrent of violence in the messages that increased in intensity as each further SMS message was transmitted.
168 Threats of physical harm to a person or his family demonstrate a rejection of the ordinary norms of conduct in a civilized society. Where, as here, they were made for the purpose of enjoying the commercial benefits of the exploitation of copyright works, the behaviour is even more repugnant
stealing is one thing but going as far as making calls threatening to kill peoples wives is just plain immorral. He deserves to be in gaol.
i didn't see anything in there about kevin energy or nu energy, was that resolved earlier or was he not part of the case

On second thought, I dont think that picture was quite appropriate.
The guy really has his head up his ass.

I remember slamm never sending out any cd's for a prize or somthing heh!
And to be honest, with that kind of conduct they should be screwed over, shame themoney they have to pay will probably trickle back to the rightful owner in 1c cheque's or somthing.

well this is good and bad then
good: Stop future artists from being ripped off
bad: only label who seemed to support hardcore outside central station in australia (who dont seem to repress their hardcore cds outside there first batch), I guess people will have to settle for central station or the sydney Dj bootleg cd mix market

I must admit, the happyhardcore vol 3 with Storm and Euphony was freaking awesome.
As Darren said, it has its ups and downs. And Central station dont have a great hardcore cd release cycle. I dont think they even have a cycle.
