Hi SurajMusic

I'd urge you to take down the Rapidshare link as it's a copyright infringement. Worse, if people don't do as you recommend and pay for it from CDbaby, you will be doing the artist out of earnings.

But I agree with you, it's a really nice recording and I'd urge people to access it legally.

Mods, aren't links like this meant to be removed?

Hi SurajMusic,

First off, thanks for bringing Nizar's new album to our attention. We actually have him featured on the MP3 page. He had sent me the files he wanted to be featured, which are basically almost half the CD anyway. Usually I compress the format a little bit less than CD quality to also encourage people to go out and buy the artist's CD from the market. Also, thanks for providing a link in order to buy the CD. I deleted your rapidshare link, because awhile ago entire CDs were being uploaded for free download and I got complaints from some artists about that. So we discontinued doing that on the forums.

Thanks for your understading,
Mike

You can pick up a copy of the album off of Itunes for 7 bucks.... it's well worth it, I've been listening to it pretty much non stop...

I think that Nizar Rohana is a Palestinian DRUZE from 3usefya cause the Rohanas here are DRUZE .
Thank you

Nizar Rohana is a talented Oud player and composer, and it doesn't matter if he is DRUZE or whatever !!

Thanks
