Title: the legality of selling bootlegs Post by: Anarchist on December 02, 2004, 09:55:43 AM Is it legal for these guys to sell bootlegs on ebay? I am guessing it is for the actual bootlegs but what about the stolen pro-shots like france in 1992?
Title: Re: the legality of selling bootlegs Post by: Will on December 02, 2004, 10:45:27 AM NO bootlegs should legally be sold, even if it's a silver CD or DVD. Even when it's a pro-shot, a soundboard recording, etc. None of those should legally be sold because the artist don't get money from these sales.
That's the law. But then again, eBay doesn't give a shit because they get money from every auction on their site. CDR and DVDR media downloaded from the internet and then sold on eBay is even "worse" because it kills the free trading and sharing of good quality bootlegs.
