1) Name three shared albums (+192kbps only) that others have successfully downloaded from you on OiNK or other trackers
Broken Social Scene - Bee Hives (320kbps)
Animal Collective - live at variety playhouse 2009 (320)
Digable Planets -Blowout Comb (320)

2a) Explain what a ratio is in three or four sentences.
A ratio it the amount one has downloaded divided by the amount one has uploaded. It is the key to watching members of a site, and whether they are just leeching and not actually seeding things. A way to keep the riffraff out.

2b)If you were a member of OiNK, tell us what your ratio was at the time of its closing. (be honest!)
i wasn't a member

3) Briefly summarize the influence of African American culture on Western popular music (answer in paragraph format, eight sentence minimum).
The whole start to jazz, which brought along things such as soul was started by African Americans. That with the help of things like Motown got swirled into popular music, and started becoming interracial. Another influence it has was the birth of hip hop from soul, which is a major factor in pop music, and today where it has transformed to rap. Without African American culture we would not have half the music we have today.

4a) What (in order) are the 5 best releases from the last 12 months?
Fuck Buttons - Tarot Sport
Lightning Bolt - Earthly Delights
Washed Out - High Times
Raekwon - Only Built for Cuban Linx
Cymbals Eat Guitars - Why There Are Mountains

4b) What (in order) are the 5 best releases from the year you were born?
Low End Theory - A Tribe Called Quest
De La Soul Is Dead - De La Soul
loveless - My Bloody Valentine
Steady Diet of Nothing - Fugazi
Green Mind - Dinosaur Jr

5) What is the most unjust pitchfork numerical rating? Why? (five sentence minimum).
I think girls was the most unjust rating at 9.1. The simple indie pop tunes, and standard vocals brought nothing to the table. Sure, it was an okay album, but for it to score that high on such an egotistical scale is dumb. I can't stand girls album's pop tunes for more than 4 minutes. I hope pitchfork would wise up about their idiotic rating scale.

6) You are stranded on a desert island. Choose one artist's music: Morrissey, Moby, or Momus? Why? (six sentence minimum).
I'd have to pick Morrissey, as much as it might sweep me into depression, especially being alone on an island. I was always a fan of the smiths, it's what i was raised on. Meat is murder and The Queen is Dead are both pure gold, so i would always choose Morrissey, despite his rocky solo career in my opinion. Moby might have been an interesting choice though..

7) BONUS REQUIREMENT: Please post a picture of yourself. (HINT: do this.)
