The CyberDen has dropped subscription rates drastically in the interest of
making it's content available to those whom couldn't afford it in the past.
I make no money off of this - All subscriptions merely help in the month to
month struggle to keep this community going.
New rates are described inside: [Summary - up to a 70% drop]

O What is The CyberDen?
- The CyberDen is a tele-community of artists, visionaries, & explorers
of underground alternative music cultures. Gothic, Industrial, Cyber,
Darkwave, Noize, Experimental, Tribal, Ambient, Ritualistic...
Curious new souls area always welcomed as this scene has no rules
other then those you make for yourself. There is no conformation.
We appreciate new ideas and always listen with an open mind yet we
stand by our beliefs which are often reflected in our craft.
This is not a hate community. There are no boundries created based on
race, color, breed - We share our minds and our art in the hopes to
open the minds of others. To support self-awareness. Think for
yourself and do not be controlled. We do not tolerate prejudice nor
inhumanity - You shall be destroyed here.
Listen to the music, understand the words, visualize the art
_______________________________________
O What does The CyberDen have to offer?
- The CyberDen allows users all over the world access to record labels,
bands, software companies, magazines, artists, files, sounds, and many
other areas involved in the alternative music and entertainment scene.
Some of these areas can be found in what is known on The CyberDen as
CyberLink:
In the label area, users can find on-line music release information
including samples of new music releases, cover art, band bios, touring
information, multimedia demos, plus whatever else a label decides to
upload for public consumption. There is even a special area on The
CyberDen called 'The Listening Room' which contains entire songs, some
even unreleased CyberDen exclusives.
Magazines on-line offer users various formats of their information.
Some 'zines are 'electronic' in which users download each issue in a
multimedia format. Other print oriented 'zines can offer exclusive
articles, images, or on-line areas which complement their issues.
Bands and artists have the freedom to offer what ever they would like.
Songs, lyrics, multimedia demos, bios, pictures, interviews, etc.
Other industry entities can offer anything from software demos to
video clips and images of upcoming releases of video games or even
feature movies. There's even a section for vendors whom peddle some of
the most interesting and bizarre 'wares you'll ever encounter...
1 Every CyberLink section also has a conference area open to the public.
These conferences are also networked throughout the OneNet network, a
network of over 1,000 FirstClass sites throughout the world.
2 Access to CyberLink is free to any user of The CyberDen plus CyberLink
subscribers also get their CyberLink info placed on our WEB and FTP Site.
- In addition to CyberLink, CyberDen users can access over 4 gigabytes
(and growing) of public domain software, MIDI & music files, samples
and sample editors, synthesizer patches, desktop publishing programs,
artwork, fonts, plus countless other items all for the Macintosh,
IBM, Windows, Atari-ST and Amiga user. We even have a CD-ROM of hard
to find Atari-ST software. (We didn't forget that the Atari-ST is
still one of the major MIDI players in the field).
- The CyberDen not only carries alternative music and computer information,
but also hundreds of newsgroups from both Usenet (The Internet) and
OneNet (The network of FirstClass sites throughout the world) plus
we also carry FileNet, a networked Mac/IBM file network!
The CyberDen carries over 400 of the most hardcore Usenet and OneNet
newsgroups including binary Usenet groups.
There are also over 4 gigabytes of shareware files, pictures, sample
dumps, synth patches, sounds plus much more available to download.
- One must explore to find all the areas of The CyberDen. There is the
Carrousel - An exclusive CyberDen area which contains various areas to
explore such as:
o THE LISTENING ROOM where you can download full songs, some unreleased
o VOMIT LUNCH, images for those with a strong stomache
o THE BLACK PAGES, The scene's version of the Yellow Pages
o PRESS RELEASES where you can see and hear new releases on the open
circuit
... plus the CULTURES area which covers the Gothic, Industrial and other
cultures, providing images, sounds and views of each scene as provided
from users such as yourselves.

O "Mature" areas
!
!
!
! Certain areas of The CyberDen contain material of an adult nature of
!
! which minors are not allowed. The CyberDen assumes NO responsibility for
!
! what could be found on The CyberDen simply because the Internet is not a
!
! policable entity. Many pictures and sounds come through the Internet via
!
! the binary newsgroups and there is no automated system of checking these
!
! transmissions and would be impossible to do so by hand.
!
!
!
! If you would like access to these areas at no extra charge to your normal
!
! subscription rate, please sign the release below swearing that you are
!
! over 18 years of age and agree to accept full liability for receiving
!
! such data from The CyberDen and that you release and hold harmless, The
!
! CyberDen of any related implications or prosecutions arising from the
!
! retrieval of such data.
!
!
!
! * You must also send a Xerox of your driver's license / passport for proof
!
! * as the good 'ol government has made things even scarier when it comes to
!
! * proof of age. Is this a pain? Yes. - Is this necessary? Yes.
!
!
!
! * The CyberDen supports free speech and all, but will not condone, carry
!
! * or support racism, prejudice, child pornography, software piracy or
!
! * any other lame ass social hang-ups. Find another site if you're looking
!
! * for this kind of material.
!
!
!
! This waiver applies to individuals as well as law enforcement and other
!
! governmental agencies. There are NO exceptions. Yes, this is an annoyance,
!
! I have no choice. Wasn't there an Amendment protecting this kind of thing?
!
!
!
! * NOTE: YOU MUST BE A SUBSCRIBER TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE MATURE AREAS.
