Isn't this concert copywrited? Or is the DVD only part of the show?

soquester... I think you're right; and as copyrighted material, Everyday Jones shouldn't be hosting the download.

Why don't they show the Zepplin set, Phil Collins played with them in the US and then flew to England and played there after.

Nevermind it's listed as page plant jones

Incidentally, from what I read Page and Plant are embarrassed by the performance, and in particular, embarrassed that Phil Collins was their drummer. But I guess since he was so popular back then (Su-su-sudio) that he was able to bully his way into their set. And because they thought he did such a piss-poor job as their drummer, they refused to allow their set to be included on the official DVD.

Hello pot, kettle here...

Would all the Hip videos not be copyrighted material, and as such, should they be distributed on your tracker? You were also OK with distributing the Ottawa DVD with the Livedownloads audio. I know you decided against that, but only after others here spoke up.

Before you get too defensive, I'm only pointing out the hypocracy of your post here.

I fully agree that legitimate copyrighted material shouldn't be distributed in any other fashion than through legitimate legal channels. Based upon what I know of commercially available Live-Aid content and taking the uploader at "his word", unless the source recordings are some sort of nefariously acquired master recordings, the issue is murky, at best.

I haven't been able to find the actual article I read some time back (I'll continue to search) but a US judge recently ruled that a commercial bootleg-distributor was not in violation of the artists rights because in that particular jurisdiction, since he was selling his own recordings of a live performance, he was the legitimate owner of the live material. Yes, the artists owned the rights to their music, but the individual that recorded it owned the rights to that presentation of their music. I believe the ruling also hinged upon the fact that the artist in question had not recorded the shows in question, and was therefore not suffering any financial loss due to competetive distribution.

But like I said, murky, at best.

I've been following the Everyday Jones site for a couple of months now and it seems like Jason is a pretty straight-up guy (and a musician himself) and would gladly take down any objectionable material if he had even the vaguest reason to question its legality.

That's pretty much where I'm at; the sheer magnitude of the boot is almost incomprehensible. If it were posted as 17 different torrents I might grab a disc or two, but for the performances that I'd like to have, it isn't worth the effort / bandwidth / disc space. It's been pretty much acknowledged by all involved that Queen freakin' owned Wembley that day, and the clips I've seen and heard are an awe-inspiring testament to their abilty to bring the crowd straight into the center of the show.

Even if you don't dig all their music, you can't imagine what it's like to see and hear 72,000 people moving in unison at Freddie's command and singing along with every word. It was truly laminar flow!

with some download clients (like azureus), you can select which files you do not want to download, and thus be selective in the pieces you do download.
probably would serve your needs well.

I just posted a message on Everyday Jones asking if someone could post a torrent for CD #8 only or just the Queen performance.
