Tapers sacrifice their enjoyment of a show to try and get the music out to the masses. They’re the ones risking ejection and other factors by doing what they do. The least we can do is respect their wishes

daspyknows, wonder what you really know. Maybe change your name and read the comments thoroughly before you answer. You seem to skip over the important points like control and sharing. I'll say it one last time because it's getting stupid. Keep your tapes private to your circle and stop complaining about why you can't share them. Enough already.

Exactly, how hard is it to respect a taper’s wishes?

Comparing a taper of Rolling Stones concerts to Trump is…a take, certainly.

Who is complaining and whining? You are..... I am sharing with people I trust. Trust is earned. You are assuming it's control, it is not. It is trust.

Old_dog no one is asking me to buy them a ticket. What I am asking is a presale code or if they get a pair I buy one. Do not insinuate in ANY way I am doing a pay for play. There is no monetization EVER. It would be no different than if I insinuated you like little boys. Maybe you do, maybe you don't but that is not my concern. Go back under your rock.

Who is being rude? You are the one spewing lies I am just stating the truth. Something you don't understand.
Off to another show. Tickets were bought for me from a friend with a friend at the box office and paid for by me. There is a record of the transaction too. No one bought my ticket.

I know it’s so easy to respect their wishes. People act like they are starving dogs and as soon as that recording hits the internet they can stamp any crappy remaster on it and call it theirs. It gets old watching the same person do the same thing over and over.

Well, everyone who can read can judge for themselves who was getting rude here not only in my, but also in EddieByword's case above. Let the public be the jury... Maybe it's just me, but I always found people suspicious who claimed that others are "spewing lies" while they themselves are "just stating the truth" - as the history of mankind is full of these false prophets.

Cheers retired_dog, yep, rude and crude, that's another couple of traits in common with ..............but as I say, I'm out of here now, it's a waste of energy.

Haha, I was thinking the very same while I was writing my comment above...! And, Eddie, please don't leave, this place needs people like you with clear words and a common sense amidst this narcistic and paranoic behaviour from certain individuals here.

I just can't believe the vitriol inspired by a request as simple as "please don't mess with my tapes."
I'm not a taper, but I'm a collector. Not just the Stones, but a variety of artists. I feel very fortunate to have high quality recordings of every Stones concert I've attended (still waiting on MetLife 2, but that will come).
For me, these tapes are akin to photographs. They preserve cherished memories and unforgettable evenings where everything seems right in the world for two hours or so. Tapers keep the music and the memories alive, and if you're a true music fan, you should appreciate their efforts and sacrifice.
daspy's tapes are among the best out there, 99.99 % of the time it's a futile attempt to remaster them anyway. Not just daspy, either - there are many great Stones tapers out there who do indispensable work.

But what's the point if most of the fans can't hear them or can't download them?

We could hear them. It’s called respect. There’s a contract between taper and collector that should be abided by. If some tapers don’t care, great. But the ones that do should have their wishes respected.

I think you miss the point entirely. Once the tape is offered to the general public via downloads, you can't control it anymore. Daspyknows don't want his tapes remastered or monetized by bootleggers. That's fair enough. But there's absolutely nothing anybody can do when certain people or bootleg companies don't respect the taper's wishes. Absolutely nothing. In the history of tape trading, there was always someone who did what people should not do. Always. Consequently, it makes absolutely no sense to flood this board with endless complaints about "Rskinnoing" or whining about japanese bootleggers and that without them, it would be a better world and anybody could enjoy these tapes.
If you want to hear his tapes, contact Daspyknows and try your luck. That's the only way. Of course, you could pray for a better world without people remastering against his will and without any bootleggers out there instead. But that would be simply naive in my opinion.
