I wonder if anyone has some news from Ryan Jonik ? I'm worried about my NIN drive since he said it would be done in March and I have still no news, no reply to my messages, or anything. I took the expensive formula so I just want to know what's going on...even a single email from him to say I haven't been forgotten would be cool. It's been one year since I paid him. I know it's a good guy, what he did is really cool but I just would like to have some news...
so what's this documentary on the thtf release that i just found out about...?

Ah, I see. Thanks for clearing that up!
That one came from jjaks if I remember correctly (give her some applause for the awesome screen caps) so maybe she'll post a definitive answer here.
No one has made a playlist or mix of Year Zero that incorporates the ARG files, have they(as in ballgameover, opalo, etc...)? I wanted to attempt it, but I've been lazy.
First off -- Thanks for the forum and this thread!
Does anyone know if 'The Downward Spiral' got its name from a fan contest to name the album? ...I met a guy that told a story of a guy that won a bunch of swag for submitting the title to TR.. He also said that the contest winner had been published in an industry magazine of the period, but he wasn't sure which one.
It's a good story, but I've never heard of this and don't see anything about it online.. Is it true and, if so, does anyone know in what magazine the contest winner was published?
-Moe Green
Lol no, that be crazy talk
The winning title was "Buttfuck Parlor Time."

Moe himself came up with the title, way back when Trent was chasing cheerleaders.
heh... Thanks! I thought the odds were low.. I'm glad I knew where to get a definitive answer; there's a lotta crazy fans out there that come up with absurd stories... I once knew a guy that woke up one day and claimed that he had known Sheryl Crow... Of course, the other crazy viewpoint would be that their stories might just be true and the individual's history is mutable..!
Ya know.. I just got outta the Tropicana. Fletch's son's, Mike and Fredo are taking over...
Just a flesh wound....
i really was serious about Butt Fuck Parlor Time. Look it up. Everybody thought it was real. Kinda.
Here's a question, Halo8 DE..the big box one with two cds in it.. That has been remastered, and you can listen to the remastered version on a standard cd player right?
Like, what I'm hearing when I put it in my non-SACD/Non-Surround Sound, regular old cd player is also remastered audio..
I'll take my response off the air. hahaha
I've got an odd question regarding TPD Aphrodite remix. I transcribed the vinyl to DAT ages ago and noticed my version comes out to roughly 6:06. At some point, I downloaded the remix.nin.com version and it times out to 5:58 and has what sounds to me like a slightly faster pitch. The vinyl label has the timing as 6:10.
So, is the remix.nin.com version accurate or is it indeed too fast?
A little bird told me way back when that many of the rare remixes that appear on nin.com were externally sourced. As a result, I wouldn't necessarily trust them as a source of "truth" in these matters. If your turntable is accurate for things that do have good reference points, I'd trust your results.
Does anyone know if a higher quality version of this video exists anywhere?

yep, the original is a low-res .mov file... the nin.com/visuals page is still up, but the interscope links don't work... archived page with working links is here:

I haven't watched that video in years, forgot how awesome it is! gave me the shivers when it kicked in.
