now where does that say you are not entitled to an opinion?

basically what you did was libalous - you accused him of being a thief without prior knowledge to the situation.

if thats how you choose to air your opinions then fine.. but dont be surprised when you raise a few hairs.

yeah got to agree, though i woudln't go so far as to say it's libel...just not very friendly or respectful

...big difference between saying "i don't care for it when people use such-and-such samples. to me it's not what i look for or want to see in the genre"

and

techno artists sampling other techno artists
how sad
like hes retarded enough to be unable to play 4 tones on a synth

people need to be a bit more careful about what they write in life sometimes

have a look at the "he is a thief" bit. i think that qualifies as libel?

didn't see that. but if someone says a person is a thief, and it's not true or there's no proof under the applicable laws, it's libel under UK law. maybe US too, i don't know.

but if he didn't say "you're a thief," then it's not libel even if implied. then it's just disrespectful.
