Well, if he wouldn't do pointless edits like that I would love these uploads.
I see no reasoning for his logic and it bothers me we will never get these songs as we heard and got to love them all those years ago.
Because he decided for example: "Let's just remove the Intro from Madness/Malinconia. Who needs it anyway, lol".
And yes, the more he does stuff like that, the more "hatred" or let's call it dissapointment is growing for me. You got that right.
Yes, I am pissed off at this.
When I saw this Upload I was super happy but immediatly went "Oh please be uncut this time". I was happy during the intro, thinking it might actually be the full song and then: "Nope." My Mind went: "OH COME ON, FFS!!!"
"Walking on the Sky" is one of my personal Programmino Era gems. So I take offense to chopping it by tiny amounts like that.
Madness was overall more of an offense to me not to include the Intro, I guess this job with Walking on the Sky just finally broke the camels back for me. I'm fed up with this sh** and want it to freakin' stop.
I do understand the past releases of shortened versions of 10min+ tracks like he did with Hymn during the CD Age (from 10:30 to 7:00) where 80min max was a limit and you couldn't just release new cds every day.
However I don't understand freaking 8 seconds of removal like in here. Or to be honest any in the digital age. Period.
If you still aim for 80min, just remove 1 or 2 songs in order to keep the rest full lenght and put the 2 removed ones on the next digital release.
IT CAN'T BE THAT FREAKING HARD.
