Re: Is this one of you??
You'd be appalled at the number of times free stuff comes up for sale on ebay, including stuff that has been traded for free through RTSR. One dork in particular was actually offering serious money to members of RTSR to leech from the FTP from which he had been banned - god only knows how much dosh he had been making from illegal sales.

The RTSR SWAT team will be onto it though!

You do NOT want to mess with the RTSR SWAT team. They always get their man.

Re: Is this one of you??
People, please report things like these asap (to ebay and/or RTSR/dirty). thank you.

the same guy is selling tiesto sets.m and from the selling history he has sold loads. frankly it should be him paying people to take them off his hands in that case. but then again, the brainless trance-sheep cant get enough of DJ Tiesticles these days.

One comment for the Tiesto CD/DVD is:

"Rrrr! You Pirate! U R A Risky Seller! OK shipping, product a copy. Not stated. Buyer rondarlin ( 76) Nov-11-05 14:59 4786072759"

to which, our pirate responds:

"Reply by nuworldsorder: Sorry, sent wrong disc out. replaced. appologies"

yeah, right. "wrong disc".

EDIT: BTW, the guy at GlobalDJSets4U is still selling underworld live sets despite being reported. Maybe you good people can also report him.

And i don't see the big deal , to sell free stuff on ebay ? and so what ?

let's say i've got a poster ( i ve stolen it in the street ) from our beloved band , and now i go to ebay and sell it ?
It's gonna make you sad ?

And i was'nt trying to be funny , just my miserable thoughts on this poor subject
Selling an item that may have already had a pricetag or wasn't meant for public consumption is not the same as selling something someone intentionally gave out for free.

In the case of the Blue Mountain gig. You have a band like Underworld who put a lot of work into providing the material for that. Rather than keep it to themselves or release it commercially and make some money off their hard work they gave it out for free.

And now someone else is making money off THEIR hard work? Because they took the trouble of burning it to a CD? Come on. That's pretty messed up.

Word.

And looking at it from a purely selfish point of view, if morons start making money out of stuff given away for free, maybe the band won't want to and/or won't be permitted to give it for free any more, which would be a sorry state of affairs indeed.
