so much to say, so little time

An update.
Well first, your donations have finally paid for the new content server. What I didn't tell you: I paid for it with a credit card already. You may have noticed the switch over earlier this month. Everything should be a lot faster now.
Also I've launched YTMND Radio, which hopefully be manned by a few users at any one time. If you'd like to DJ, let me know at max@ytmnd.com.
On top of that, I deleted 2211 accounts that were used for up and downvoting which accounted for over 250,000 votes, so don't be surprised if you notice some unfamiliar sites popping up top in the next day or so.

I like some hardcore, but the whole genre has gone down the sh*tter anymore. The metalcore stuff is actually good when the bands aren't uninspired ripoffs, which is... almost never. Oldschool hardcore like Poison Idea and Discharge can be good. Some of that crew sh*t like Blood for Blood. Honestly though hardcore would be a minimum of what I'd play
MewTwo, (i think) each user here is responsible for siting their own sources, so it's not the same as at ebaums where neil and eric can submit sh*t to their own site pretending to be an anonymous user and then wait months after complaints to take it down. I say keep the sponsored section, max. It's a good idea for the site even without needing the money, plus you make money off of it. A win for everyone.
"It's a good idea for the site even without needing the money, plus you make money off of it. A win for everyone." You don't get it. Even if other people are putting up the content, Max's site is still hosting it. And really, that's what Bauman does. HOSTS it. Never says he created it. I don't hate YTMND by any means. Most of my bookmarks are of fads here. It's just hypocritical to make money and allow people to slam eBaum at the same time. Pick ONE.
To Mewtwostruckback: Large difference between YTMND and Ebaums. Ebaums does it for a living. He makes a load of money off of material he steals and "hosts" on his site. YTMND takes donations to help pay for the server and keep the site running. As far as I can tell max is still working a job like everyone else and he doesn't sound like he's a millionaire like Ebaum.
