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.
