	I'm not saying it'll be anyone here who does it, but I'm sure it 
*will* be on Ebay, and more certainly still on bootleg CD stalls in 
markets across the country before the month is out. The question is 
whether this matters to the band's revenue or not, and really I doubt 
very much that it does. Nobody buys crappy audience recordings or even 
compressed streams who doesn't have the real stuff already, surely? But 
really the band don't need to worry about eBay bandits, because people 
like us will report them. If there's anyone making money out of their 
music that isn't the band it's still the old-style bootleggers. Yours,
