Come on guys, let's chill on this.

This goes on all over, and whether it is artists who have bootlegs made 
of their concerts ans sold (I have bought many) or traders who release 
recordings into the public on sites like Dimeadozen, only to find 
someone selling them on Ebay, or Market traders sellinh Knock off Nigel 
DVD's, or the John Peel Yahoo group having a whale of a time finding 
and archiving shows because of the thrill of discovery and a love of 
the music and the philosophy of the man, only to find them being sold 
on a website, we cannot let it affect our behaviour.

Look at what has happened this year, and what a fantastic library we 
are building, so that, I believe, even the BBC will use this group and 
its WIKI as THE resource for Peel info and show archives.

So a slow and painful death to the parasites who leach, but, hey WE are 
doing this for all the right reasons, and we cannot let them spoil our 
fun.

Look, I spent about a month on those 1978 FF50 tapes to get them sound 
as best as they could, and what seems like millions of hours trying to 
get bleedin' BASF cassettes from the 400 box to play, but I did it for 
me, and to share with fellow enthusiasts.

Selling of stuff made by others has always gone on and probably always 
will, and if the corporate superpowers cannot stop it, then neither can 
we.

We don't pay anyone for the music we listen to on the Peel shows, and 
Brian is £500 better off for selling copyright material, so let's not 
get too precious, AND PLEASE LET US NOT HAVE GOONER OR HIS KIND SPOIL 
OUR FUN.

What, an Arsenal fan? Ignore all that, lynch the bastard.
