I'm there too WTF?!? (I'm a nobody! haha)

http://mp3horde.com./search?q=diego+vega

(there's another Diego Vega... the "can't stand the rain" songs and remixes are not mine...or that Diego Cid remix) but still there's like 4 of my songs there, it sucks that they are charging for them! But again who would trust a site like that with their credit card?

Sometimes I even think Beatport or someone on the inside gets all the music out there somehow... I mean how do 'nobodies' spread everywhere? I have even seen my music in blogs, file sharing programs etc... not that I'm complaining though (again, the exposure for someone in the 'unkwown' position is not bad, it's free publicity) But I still think it's kind of strange how everything just spreads like that, it seems as if someone has access to all or most of the music being released... I mean how hard would it be to pirate every daily release on Beatport? How does this pirate russian site get all our songs (even if they are on blogs/file sharing programs/etc how did they even find ME)?

that's what I wondered but it listed my tracks as "source: vinyl" and in fact they were out only on vinyl, so someone at some point must have physically recorded it

A lot of mp3 sites hosted on eastern euro based servers offer this like for years now.
It's not a new phenomena
Found a lot of my songs on there, can't do nothing about it.

I did a google search for one of my latest releases the day after it was released and it was allready available on a russian website, but this one for free, at least they didn't get paid for the tracks.
