Question Livesets being sold on e-Bay, WRONG OR RIGHT???

I just decided to stop over at www.ebay.com in search of DJ Tiesto's Magik series at a good price, HOWEVER, most of the material I saw was LIVE MIXES by him, including 2002-02-02 - Live at Dutch Dimension! I was shocked! I NEVER thought that people actually SELL these on the 'Net!

Now, as a test I decided to punch in Paul van Dyk and Ferry Corsten in the search field and up came the same: Livesets. My question is: What's your opinion on it? Do you think it's OK to sell this kind of material on the 'Net (they sell EVERYTHING else on there so, this isn't obscure)? Why or why not? Please give examples to show your point of view. Also, it took me less than 2 minutes to find all of this...

Personally I think it is wrong. Making money off things that are freely available just rubs me the wrong way.

However, having said that for people who aren't aware of the live sets being made available or who can't find a liveset then it could be seen as being useful.

I still disagree with the whole thing though.

I don't see anything wrong with it, if people are willing to pay for the convenience of doing this then what's the problem? It's no different to Audiogalaxy putting ads on their site and spyware with their software. If you're OK with downloading mp3's then slagging this off is just hypocrytical.

No, actually Tiesto14 is a SINGLES whore... He told me himself and sent me a music list... Even though he DOES have more LS than me. I probably bought more albums in the year 2000 than he bought in the last 5 years! Anyway, I love livesets more than singles because the music sounds much better (more energy, sometimes played at a better pitch, crowd cheering, etc...). I would start doing this, if I had gold CDs (I don't like selling just ANYTHING, if I'm going to sell something, it's going to be a GOLD CD, with DURABLE jewel case, complete tracklisting, and finally the CD's going to have SEPERATE tracks, each track mark placed with FRAME (1/75th of a second) accuracy!

They're buying everything. If it's up there, people are buying it! I saw Dutch Dimension for USD $12.00 yesterday so, it shows that people are willing to put top dollar on it! They probably don't know that you can get this all of the Internet for free.

With all due respect, even my mum knows you can get music on the internet for free, and she can't even turn the computer on.

The thing is, not everybody has access to this type of thing. People might only be 56k, or might only be able to access the net from school or work. Or they might actually want them on CD rather than mp3 and have no CD burner. Who knows? The fact is, they're willing to pay somebody to put it on CD for them, so what's the problem? Everybody's happy.

Except the record labels. Which IMO should make everybody even happier.

Its illegal to sell them.
technically known as bootlegs, its something that's always happened, i remember going to local markets and traders there having dodgy music cassettes with live sets on them, usually very badly recorded too.

Ebay will usually end the auction of stuff like that if they are notified of them.
