Then we get arguments on Tiki Central where Person A is mad at person B becuase Person A will only bootleg for trade, while Person B wants cold-hard cash for his bootlegs. And Person A feels so much more justified in their bootlegging. It's silly!

Uhm....hmmmm...

Exactly what planet did these arguments take place on? Is there some sort of alternate universe Tiki Central board I am unaware of?

I (as "person A" I suppose) do not feel any more or less justified in my sharing of dead LP's be it for trade or cash.

I would assume that if Swanky ("person B"?) is peeved at me because he asks for cash for his CD he would make mention of it to me here on the thread.

But it would appear that Swanky and I are in agreement for the most part with regard to this whole subject of redistributing "bootlegged" music and therefore I can only ascertain that this entire "silly" person A, person B scenario only happened in your head.

Does that sound about right there Hanford? Eh?

Now, since none of us here are going to personally affect the copyright laws even one iota by chatting about it on a message board or inventing arguments between people with letters for names, perhaps we could just get back to tiki talk. Let's remember that trading this stuff is all in good fun and we are all here for the love of all things Tiki. If there is some other nefarious purpose behind it all that I am as yet unaware of please feel free to forward me that memo.

M'kay?

pele (BTW Swanky, I'll be ordering up one o' them thar CD's from yer site soon.)
