║ ║ ║ Another HOT Release from RNS! ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ Another hot pre-release from RNS... this time, the highly ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ anticipated, and much delayed Beatnuts album. Enjoy it -- ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ only from the kings of the pre-release. ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ A few words on the pathetic group on the scene who put out a║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ so-called fix for our Puff Daddy rip. Firstly, I have to ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ laugh -- it took you THREE DAYS to find the single possible ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ problem with the rip, that being a slight (and I do mean ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ slight) blip near the start of one of the tracks. I guess ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ since you have no releases of your own to fix, you decided ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ to take it upon yourselves to issue a fix for a problem with║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ another group's rip that no one would have noticed -- ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ desparation drives you to do odd things, eh? ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ To everyone who was deeply traumatized by the quarter-second║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ blip in the background (a loss of synch in the encoding ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ process) at the beginning of track 17 of ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ Puff_Daddy-Forever_(Explicit_Retail)-1999-RNS, please accept║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ our deepest apologies. MP3 encoding is not an exact ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ science, and errors do occur -- we try to minimize all of ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ them, and try to completely eliminate the big problems. We ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ DID listen to Puff Daddy before releasing it, but our ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ examination unfortunately did not reveal the ever so minor ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ error in track 17 (in fact, I had to listen to the affected ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ portion repeatedly to hear the so-called error). RNS ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ releases over 6000 albums a year -- it is simply not ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ feasible to listen to each and every one of them from start ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ to finish. Volume is our excuse for the few errors that ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ slip through the cracks -- what excuse can the other groups ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ possibly use, with their 2 releases a week? ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ On another note, please welcome stage5 to RNS... he will ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ make an invaluable member of the team. ║ ║ ║

║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ Since 1996, Rabid Neurosis has been dedicated to releasing ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ the highest-quality, cutting-edge MP3s in the online music ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ community. With an average of nearly 6000 releases per ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ year, RNS is untouchable both in terms of quantity and ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ quality of releases. Many of the largest releases in the ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ music world were released by RNS long before their official ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ street date. We pride ourselves on ensuring that our ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ releases encompass every musical genre, from pop, to ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ hip-hop, to jazz, to house, to alternative, and back again. ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ Do you think you have what it takes to be part of Team RNS? ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ RNS is currently looking for: ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ - T3+/40GB+ siteops running a *nix-based OS ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ - cable/ADSL+ rippers on the east coast or in the EU ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ willing to do store pickups every Tuesday morning ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ - individuals with access to music prior to its official ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ retail release date ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ - hardware suppliers ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ - individuals with a skill useful to the group -- we're ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ always looking for new ways to better RNS ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║
║ ║ ║ If you fall into any of these categories, please ask to ║ ║ ║
