Dee Granger's Bob Dylan Bootleg Trade List: VCDs
Click here for "Other Artists" tradelist (audio & VCD)
Click here for My Want List
Equipment and Software: Apple Macintosh G3 with 640 MB physical ram running OS 10.2.8 @466MHz; Yamaha CRW8424S 8/4/24 internal CD-R/RW drive; Roxio Toast Titanium 6.0.
Procedure: Copy entire VCD as a disk image using, then write the image onto 80-minute brand-name data CD-R. I always use audio disk-at-once (DAO) from the hard drive at 4X (half my burner's rated write speed for CDRs). I usually use TDK, Sony, or Fuji CDR media.
Note: I do not knowingly copy (pirate) officially-licensed video. If you see anything here that is an official release by Columbia/Bob Dylan/PBS/etc., including promos, please inform me so I can remove it from my trade list. I haven't decided if it's still piracy to copy out-of-print releases for other people. I will listen to arguments, but I won't do it unless/until I am convinced it is legal/ethical to do so.
