DID U BUY DOWNLOADS FROM THE NPGMC? If so, please let us know some details below if you can. myself and a few former members are doing some research
how much $$$ do you estimate you spent on downloads? Audio / Videos? have you tried to back up all your downloads/licenses (to a CD/DVD/ext HD) yet? did it work? did you lose access to your purchased music/videos when the NPGMC closed down? Why - what happened? (ie system crash, HD failure, iPod or MP3 player broke, error message, etc) Do you use iTunes? if not, what audio programs do you use? are you a Windows or Mac user? Anything else you want to say on this topic? We are the New Power Generation, we want to change the world... The only thing that's in our way is you. . | |

Not enough to stress over Audio / Videos? audio have you tried to back up all your downloads/licenses (to a CD/DVD/ext HD) yet? yes, last week. did it work? hard to tell yet, i keep getting an error, but possibly my cd burner, gonna investigate more this weekend and get back to you did you lose access to your purchased music/videos when the NPGMC closed down? yes Why - what happened? (ie system crash, HD failure, iPod or MP3 player broke, error message, etc) hard drive failure. Do you use iTunes? yes if not, what audio programs do you use? N/A are you a Windows or Mac user? windows Yes, I hopefully they will make the previous downloads available through the new site. I downloaded all my music a few days after the site went dark because of hard drive failure. I had them burned onto cd at one point, but the cd's have been damaged. BUT, here is a good question for you. When you purchase a music cd in a store, if it gets damaged, lost or stolen, are you entitled to a new one? Should downloadable music follow the same theory, or should it be made available until the day you die? If I am not mistaken, I think there are some online stores out there that don't let you download more than a certain number of times. Would love to hear others thoughts on the "no new cd if damaged" vs. "no new downloads if lost" issue. | |

I backed up the licenses.
I did a re-install on my pc and loaded them back, however I have not been successful in getting the licenses to work. THe website that was up with the downloads is now gone and the backup licenses did not work. I guess we get screwed again? **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-
