Music Downloads Section

I was just wondering if this section of the Website will ever make a return? I would like to see it return; that way I can sample the songs before buying the CDs (I already ordered the complete song collections). If it isn't returning then that's ok, I can live with that, but then why is it still up their as being blacked out?

I think I can answer this question in Mike's absence.

1 reason) Bandwidth issues; not something he wants to risk
2 reason) Legality; posting up MP3s on a site is a bit risky, especially when a lot of the songs in question are available now on re-released CDs (as opposed to being on out-of-print CDs for years).

However, I always like to remind Mike that putting up RARE songs is always a fun treat, but dunno if that'll ever happen again.

Too bad I wasn't around when this was happening, depending on which tunes are on offer. Personally, I don't listen to any Japanese DBZ vocal songs, the only one's I might jam to would be Makafushigi Adventure(my personal favourite!), We Gotta power, and the tune where Gohan goes SSJ2 in the Cell saga. Well, I won't jam to that, it's got kind of a dreamy beat, I just like this song.

About Number 2....You could always put 30-second samples, then put a link to CD Japan, if the song's in print. That might work

That's actually a really good idea.

If song clips were put up, people could easily see if a song is the one they want. I don't know how logical I'm being, but music samples would be hot.

I noticed a lack of CHA-LA HEAD-CHA-LA in there. Why's that? XP

But yeah, samples wouldn't be bad. Would probably encourage more people to buy the recent and upcoming CDs. :O

Cha-La Head-Cha-La is actually an ok song, it's just that being introduced to DBZ's later part of the series made me like We Gotta Power even more, then I heard the English version of Makafushigi Adventure and thought, for a dub this intro isn't bad, butt when i heard it in Japanese I ws like 'I knew it!' That had to be the original theme dubbed.
So yeah, maybe it's that or it's beat is just, a little bit Un-DBZ-ish to me, I actually like the recap music of the early series though.
