Reply to The crappiest part of producing

I've come to realize that the crappiest part of producing is releasing tracks. Why, you might ask? Because every time I upload a track on Soundcloud or anywhere else, a week later I learn something new that could have been useful in that track.

Now, there are two obvious arguments here:

1. I could go back and make changes to the track and then reupload it.
   This is true. However, if that were the case, I would constantly be going back and making small changes and then reuploading tracks. And even then it's going to bug me that people have downloaded it and have the crappier version.
2. I should not release a track until I am completely happy with it.
   The thing is that I am happy with a track when I release it (I try not to upload junk). But I listen to tracks that I finished two months ago and believe to myself "damn, this would have sounded better if I [insert recently learned technique here]."

The problem is that, as producers, we will never stop learning new tricks, techniques, and methods. The shitty thing is that I guess you have to learn to let things be unless you plan to completely rework an old track.

Just a thought. Anyone else plagued by this?

As an afterthought, I never even thought about this until a track I finished a year ago got relatively popular on the interwebz. By my ability now, I consider that track to be garbage. I even thought about deleting it. Then all of a sudden I see it popping up on blogs and Hype Machine. I reworked the song and did some updating to it. But I realized afterwards that it was kind of pointless. After all, what am I going to do? Should I hack into the hype machine and get all the IP addresses of people that downloaded my song and then hack their computers and replace the old mp3 with my updated one? Not that that's even possible. I'm just sayin'.

It's worth also noting, that if you mull around a track and apply new things you've learned and never upload it ever, it will sit on your HD until you die and no one will hear it. Hmm.... Damn it!
