We Europeans could ask why the record company don't release Yello stuff more often: reprints of old tracks and videos. Most probably because they cannot manufacture that much stuff. Yello can do nothing as they have given rights to the record company for 75 years (after Boris and Dieter have died). Maybe your ftp site with illegal Yello stuff is a two sided compromize (as Yello is aware of such a site). Regards, Juhana

The Eye - copy protection?
by Franz Gall 07 Nov '03

07 Nov '03

Hi all, I was just curious about copy protection on the new Yello album. On the back of the digipack it says: Copy Control (TM) and the usual remark, that it may not play on some players, etc. This made me curious. So I just tried here on my PC with Windows XP Home. My CD-Writer MITSUMI CR-48XATE reads and plays the cd with no problem. I have disabled the autostart function. I was able to rip high quality mp3 (192 and 256), also ogg and wav with FreeRIP MP§ Version 1.21 from http://www.mgshareware.com. I will not put this on any filesharing programs, but on my MP3 player now ;-)) THE NEW ALBUM IS JUST GREAT! I love it. Regards Franz

Yes, Ralph was originally based out of San Francisco. Where their current configuration is, possibly retooled as just Cryptic Corporation is, I'm not sure. It seems that Minnesota's East Side Digital label handles most of the US reissues of The Residents.

How come The Eye not available in North America??
by Paul Cauffopé 06 Nov '03

06 Nov '03

I wonder why The Eye won't be released in North America. Aren't we a large numbers of fans of Yello the other side of the Atlantic??? I don't want pay twice the price for a CD bought on the net. All Yello CD / albums were available (except Motion Picture) in Canada. Mr Meier and Blank probably have no choice for doing that, I suppose that their record company decided not making Canadian or American copies of The Eye thinking that they won't sell ($$$$) a large number of CD's around here. I feel sad and angry about this. -- Paul

Re: [Yello] Scared to buy The Eye

>From: Jonathan Kamm <kammagic(a)comcast.net> > >Has anyone actually experienced this? If so were you on Windows or Mac? [ and Rene wrote ] >The copy protected audio cd's only want you >to install a player on your PC or Mac. And through >that player the audio tracks become audible. Thanks Jonathan and Rene for more informal replies. I have Linux. If I go to my friend and install the software on the CD to his MS Windows XP, then am I able to I extract the songs to WAV files? Move the WAV files to my Linux and listen to the songs from those WAV files? Does The Eye want install a player? We could check that out first. Do The Eye have a Linux version of the software? My CD player is very cheap and cannot anymore play well regular CDs. People have reported (so I have heard) problems with the cheap players. Those guys who started blaming, please don't forget that I would have to pay before I can test if The Eye works in my CD player. If The Eye does not work, then I have already lost money! I'm not a gambler! Would you borrow your The Eye for me so that I can test if it works in my gears or not? Right, that is what I thought too. It makes more sense to ask mp3 copies --- perhaps only after I have buyed The Eye and have found out that I'm not able to listen to it. But would anyone make me mp3 files then? Assuming that is another risk and I may end up having unplayable The Eye. The point is that the copy control stuff causes a risk. A risk too untolerable to me. Please let us know if anyone of you actually have problems (or not) with your The Eye. BTW, I could buy The Eye and send it to you. Then you could make me a mp3 copy of my The Eye and send all back to me. Regards, Juhana

Matrix II
by Tasha 04 Nov '03

04 Nov '03

I have been watching the second Matrix for the nth time, thinking how the soundtrack is just not quite as "there" as the first Matrix. Then I just had this epiphany - I bet Boris could have created a sound track deserving of this! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
