I've done this in the past, and then recently I started collecting bootlegs again. But now I think I'm gonna boycott them. That goes for unsanctioned mixtapes as well. I will get "official bootlegs" put out by bands. Or "official mixtapes" put out by artists. I just get sick of seeing my winamp bloated with random live shows and bootlegs full of poor quality tracks that have eventually been released officially elsewhere. I like the simplicity in hearing albums the way that the artist/etc have put them together, rather than a mishmash of outtakes and bsides strewn about by some fanboy. What are yr thoughts on this mighty msg board bards?
