TRADING

I presume this is not allowed officially either, as bootleg recordings
always were discorouged. Most true fans though would only trade with other
fans to build up a collection of what is not available on official release,
whereas a minority would sell them at record fairs and effectively take
money from the bands. I can honestly say I have never sold any unofficial
recording, but did buy a couple initially when staarting my collection. I
was actually considering tackling the task of transferring all of my 200 odd
HW tape recordings onto CD, before the tapes deteriorate too much to play. I
know some people are doing a similar thing with video to DVD, but would
think this is permitted as it is for private use to preserve what you
already have. Luckily I built up my collection since 1979 and pretty much
have all I want. Now all I have to decide is whether to copy all the
analogue recordings onto pc and burn onto disc or from my cassette deck onto
a cd recorder? I know someone on the list did me a Music Machine '77 cleaned
up copy onto CD a few years ago which is excellent, but I think my attempts
will be a very basic tape to CD copy in order to preserve them. Any tips
welcome.

Eddie.
