My boot man told me that Boston is out in the next week.
With all the traffic on this site about boots: downloading and burning are not bootlegs but recordings. Downloading is the 21st century equivalent of tape collecting but what you get is not a bootleg.
It's like the difference between a pirate recording and a bootleg, these are clearly two different things.

My thoughts exactly. If the concert sound quality is the same, I don't mind that much really. I'll look for the covers and print them myself. Ofcourse I prefer the bootleg, but it's the music that counts in the end, isn't it?

$50 for a boot??? Well I rarely pay more than €15 to 20 here in Holland, or €30 for double cd's
No problem with downloading but it's not a bootleg. Same with making copies of boots which is how I started tape trading in 'the good old days'.
In Europe I'd expect to pay 30 Euros max per disc, in the UK £20. In New York last week I got VGP Paris 95 2CD for $20 when doubles usually go for $40. Pays to shop around but I remember tapes use to sell for £5-£10 each so I hope nobody pays 'silver' disc prices for CDRs.
