| TopPopper 18th Jul 2017 | I suppose it's perfectly appropriate that you can download a pdf of this book for nothing (I won't post a link, but Google knows all!) | |
| KeithS SUBS 11th Jul 2017 | ReviewThis book ...unlike 45Cat...makes a distinction between "Bootleg" and "Pirate" but from past experiences, no matter what one suggests, an arm-waving attack will come from somewhere with a completely different take on the subject. So it has always been, and depends on which parts of the music industry you have been involved with...or not. One take is that a Bootleg gives you the chance of hearing music that has not been authorised by the Record Company or artist.Should we accept their restrictions "Only this is what you may listen to" Piracy is much older - Shakespeare's plays were copied by people in the audience writing down the lines. The discs for mechanical pianos were copied without permission..big selling 78's were illegally copied and distributed. Copyright laws date back to printers rights to circulate Shakespeare's plays , or the rights to produce piano rolls and sheet music and thus have not been amended with the same speed that technology rushes ahead. This book carries many interviews with the shady characters who produced Bootleg discs and all say a similar thing. "Why should Record Companies react so violently..they were never going to produce this stuff anyway..its not affecting their economy" These "unauthorised" discs were never produced in large quantities and their original selling prices were not exorbitant..so the main reason for their existence was a love of the music rather than financial gain. Many Bootleg discs were even bootlegged by other bootleggers but legallity always comes to the fore. US laws differ from Europe..so produce in Germany and sell where you want...the loopholes caused uncertainty. There's bound to be alternative views of this industry but the book is informative 6 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review? | |
