I am pissed! Someone is selling Lou bootleg CD-R's on ePay. Not only that, but many of the ads are showing the cover-art I DESIGNED!!!

Ebay'er: dakleintje

Man, I am pissed! (not in the English sense of the word. This is 100% AMERICAN pissed!)

FYI, I am completely rethinking my decision to consistently release all of my recordings onto DaD or any other torrent host if I continue to see this stuff being sold. My only request of you guys is to report these boots to ePay when you see them.

that sucks big time.
I always email ebay abou this
shit ... they don't seem to do much
about it though.

I for one would miss your uploads,
but understand the thinking.
It sucks that people ruin a good thing.

Can you post a link?
Will try to email ebay.

Mg169 I never never would buy this shit! Im a VU fan since so mutch years so I compleatly agree whith you that selling or buyin this kind of bootlegs are wrong and makes me sad. At the time I was buying the bootleg (AT THE FACTORY - WARHOL TAPES) I was thinking that this was the offical bootleg from Nothing Songs Limited Records.


I hope that you now understand me and nobody is angry about me.

Downloading bootlegs off the internet from trading communities and selling them on eBay is messed up. I don't think selling bootlegs is ALWAYS bad though. The exceptions:

Bootleg records
Bootlegs with unique packaging (like Flowers of Evil)

You agree?
