So they still keep em coming. Oh well, QP just don`t get it.
Who are these "experts" picking out the "top" bootlegs?
Every show up for sale I own in better quality, as do many others here. I just don't get why they don't unearth the soundboard recordings. They can't possibly think they're making all the money they potentially could by releasing audience recordings, many of which aren't great, even by bootleg standards.

Amen. Ah, because Greg Brooks probably screwed all of them up when he cataloged them. They asked him for Birmingham 1984, and he asked them why they didn't just put the 7th night in Hawaii in 1987 out there. It has a cool soundcheck with it! I personally didn't know the Works tour lasted that long. They must have decided to do a special setlist for that 1986 concert in the UK that they filmed. Greg can't remember where it is but he guesses Scotland.
But really, they are being super lazy and just uploading the LP/CD/Tape/(whatever) of the original bootleg releases onto the computer, uploading it online, and passing it off as a treat.
Lazy Fokers.

I must say, I only ever downloaded one of these - think it was the Jazz Final one - and I was imminently disappointed.
I'm a dabbler in bootlegs, not very hardcore about these things at all. Additionally, most of mine are on vinyl too.
But the quality of these next to most of those which I own (Zepp, The Who, U2, Tom Waits, a few others, some Queen) is appalling.
This is one aspect of new Queen stuff that I thought would really float my boat. But it's just been pish, really. Very disappointing.

They would be better off downloading bootlegs from this website and then selling it, then selling what they sell now.

It's because they're too lazy to trade for good quality bootlegs. They just download crap quality from emule and other P2P programmes and put them up for sale.

Again, bearing in mind most of my stuff is on vinyl and I don't do much of the download thing at all... Do they not think we know this? Are they really so lazy as to swipe other stuff and think we don't already have it??
Where the fuck are the soundboard recordings? There MUST be a few out there...
I am getting very disillusioned with this.

Even if they downloaded from Queenzone torrents and/or the Queen Hub I presume the quality would have been much better.

They tried, but you have to become a member first.
They didn't get acces (you have to share 2 GB at least, which means they had to GIVE something first) so they had to stick to the crap quality, assuming Queen fans buy anything that bears the Queen name.

At least the money goes to the Phoenix Trust Fund... and let's not start attacking Greg Brooks.
The last thing we need his him to come around here some more, shooting his manlove all over the place again....
