I could and would perfectly well respect his point of view would he be a taper that records with artist's permission, like I personally do since the early 90s. In most cases he would risk his relationship with the artists would he let out his stuff just like that. because sooner or later it ends up on ebay and then he'd be in a p*ss poor situation of having to do some explaining. but no, he is 'just' a stealth taper, so what could possibly be his respectable point here...??!!
In my opinion it is respectable even for a stealth taper not to want their recordings to be sold on ebay by other people. Otherwise I agree, if anybody wants to keep their recordings all private they shouldn't go and brag about having them in the first place. However, these recordings will all surface one day I'm sure...
Oh, but a few questions remain, dear Dummkopf: If you're recording with the artist's permission, what do you do with your recordings? Do you trade them? Or do they see the light of day as shiny vinyl bootlegs? I'm not being ironic here or looking for a fight/discussion, just curious. I guess that recordings made with the artist's permission are of far better quality than anybody else's...
And when it comes down to any cheese I'd say it goes far better with white wine than with red, but hey, everybody to his/her own...
You can't fix stupid.
