How does this site work?
First, I'll tell you a little more about my roio collection. I'm collecting roio's by the artists you see at the left (except for a few that I just listed because I happen to have these recordings). When I started collecting, somewhere in the late 80's, I bought lp's and (later) cd's on record fairs and in second hand shops. During the 90's I learned (through the internet) about the sharing phylosophy: these recordings should never be sold but be traded or given away for free. At first I traded cassette tapes, and participated in 'trees', 'vines' and 'weeds'; when cd burners became affordable, I traded audio cd-r's. Nowadays I prefer to trade lossless audio, in formats like flac or shn, by up- and downloading ('online trading'). Read more about my preferences here. I securely ripped the audio cd-r's I collected (using eac, with offset correction) and encoded these to flac. However: in my database you'll still see the 'old' format (like 'CD-R', '2 CD-R', etc.) because most people like to know these kind of things (some people even use this as 'currency': 'we trade n discs for n discs'). How to navigate on this site? Well, of course, you start by clicking on an artist on the left. Then, right above this frame you're reading now, a list appears. By default, the list is sorted on Recording Date. If you want to change that, just click on the header of your choice (f.i., click on Rating, and the list will be sorted from excellent to pretty bad recordings). Click again to sort in reverse order. For the people interested in DVD's only, you'll find a filter on the top of the page called 'Filter: DVD-Video only'. Clicking this will give you a list of all DVD's in my collection. You can also sort this list as described above.
