COUNTDOWN IS BACK THIS JANUARY, 2019 ... ON rage !!!!!
Stay tuned below with regular Countdown full archival information for each Countdown episode rage shall be airing every Saturday throughout January ...
Excellent. 
just wondering if I could please get a lossless copy of it on megaupload? I do remember the Virgin Megastore at Pitt Street Sydney in 1993 had a 2in1 set of their first two albums for $14.95, and now somewhat regret throwing it back into the shells at the time. 
I can most probably trade if I have something you're looking for.
This ebay seller can jump in the lake.

No, I won't be reposting the album in new-fangled FLAC or .wav or anything else.
I'm sick of posting free stuff from my archives onto the Net in response to requests and - rather than being complimented and thanked for the effort - having people reply that it wasn't good enough. It happened when I posted a copy of a rare Jackson Browne video onto Rapidshare after requests via YouTube. Someone wanted a 1:1 copy and also launched into a long technical rant on exactly how I should post it. Needless to say I ignored that demand, and I'll be ignoring these latest demands.
When you pay for something you have a right to complain if it isn't good enough or faulty. When you get something for free you have no such rights.
Suck it up, princesses. That copy was it and you won't be getting anymore

Firstly, if you can't fulfill the request - don't bother.
Secondly, when you get told that your content isn't good enough, don't get your back up, try and use your brain. Because you didn't bother to read the request properly in the first place, chances are you're going to get feedback that's not to your liking.
Thirdly, buy telling us that you don't want to share your stuff, you have even made more of a fool of yourself.
From experience, you annoy people more buy placing inferior material up, rather just simply fulfilling the request, I can't put it any simpler then that.
Apologies for the up front tone, but that's your answer to your rather "tantrumed" post.

Well Jack, firstly John has tried his darndest to fulfill somebody's request. It was a good gesture, he didn't have to do it, at least you guys have a copy of the album in some kind of format, a lot better than what you had before which was zilch.
Now flac is another compressed format, which again doesn't sound anywhere near as good as the original. But granted it does sound a bit better than wma or a low grade mp3. Now even a mp3 that has been ripped straight from the cd at say 384 kbps has a very good audio and does sound a lot better than a 120 kbps mp3. Even professional audio people have said that they can't hear any difference between a high grade mp3 and a flac.
Obviously people aren't as technically minded as yourself so just be happy with what you have got.
