Hey, I was wondering: I know some of yas have heard good things about the 2001 USA/Canada re-release DVD of the Queen concert film "We Will Rock You", but also that some of yas find the DVD to be expensive (from what I've heard).
What I was wondering was, if I offered to burn copies of this DVD really cheap, would some of you buy a copy of WWRY off of me?
(I can make both NTSC and PAL versions of the DVD as well, if that adds any interest)

Now you are advertising your pirating of Queen product on QZ?
NOT official product - please.
Anyone who wants the Canadian DVD should purchase the disc. There are many universal DVD stores or try http://www.dvdboxoffice.com/ if your are looking for a Canadian specific store.
I think you miss the point of DVD sharing Dark.
The thing about "Freddie's Millions", "Freddie's Loves", "TFI Friday" or "This Morning" interviews, is that they were freely broadcast - and that they are NOT commercially available.
It is perfectly reasonable to record a show (afterall that is why VHS was invented) for personal home use, and I dare say most authorites would turn a blind eye to swapping off-air recordings for personal use also, however, turning those off-air recordings into a commercial venture, and even worse - re-recording official product is illegal, and it can lead you into very serious problems.

Not interested.
Jeez, get a clue, Dark. £20 or $47 canadian, doesn't seem expensive. And of course, there's always Ebay.

Dark... for a long time queenzoner, you disappoint me. Yours is a really bad idea.
Which idea? And why?
I'd be interested Dark. Any chance you could also copy the GVH dvd's?
well the idea to copy something which is easily available. money isn't the issue here... if everyone bought DVDR's would Queen Productions bother to release anything new ever again?
(and i realise WWRY wasn't released by QP)
if you offered to sell DVDs containing interviews, clips, unreleased concert footage - that in my eyes would not be a problem. In fact i would welcome it.

"I'd be interested Dark. Any chance you could also copy the GVH dvd's?"
Here comes a long one...
I can, possibly. The only problem is that, if memory serves me correct, the main GVH DVD discs are dual-layered, and I only have a single-layer DVD burner for the moment (I do plan on getting a Sony DRU-700A Dual Layer burner in the future, but I know that won't be for several months for sure), so I may have to make omissions (eg. only use the PCM audio tracks, which save a lot of space and sacrifice the need to re-encode the video to make it fit), or split up the videos between discs. Also, I don't as of yet have a DVD encoder on my PC that allows DTS tracks to be input, officially. I did get some software downloaded to CD with some cracks as well, but I won't be back home from my vacation until August 23rd next month, so I won't know for sure if, if you do require the DTS tracks intact, that if I will be able to burn DVD's with DTS tracks.
That aside, what format do you need the DVD's to be in? NTSC or PAL?
The only DVD I have both NTSC and PAL copies of is the GVH2 DVD - anything else, I will have to re-encode with my video software if I have to, if you need PAL DVD's, which personally I don't care either way, even though re-encoding takes a very long time :P.

I'd need PAL copies - as I'm in Europe my player won't support NTSC I think.
