But that wasn't bootlegging, that was people legitimately recording the shows with the Dead's blessing (many bands followed suit). But it still remains it was the Dead's choice to give that blessing, and I still feel creators should maintain that right. Even if they choose to exercise that right poorly (ie, if the Dead disallowed recording) that is their choice, not the piraters.
