No, I'm talking about unreleased live recordings.  There's a site on the web that states the position I noted in my original mail.  I trade other band's music, but only those bands that don't condemn it.  Some bands even set up "taping tables" at their shows for people to set their recorders.  It's kinda freaky when you're not used to it.  I've never been to Napster, so I don't even have a reference point there, but I suspect that all of the information that I've seen gives me a pretty accurate picture of what it's all about and I'm not interested in getting .mp3 files of their studio stuff when I can just buy it and give the record company their 95% and the band their 2%. *koff don'tgetmegoingontherecordindustry koff*
 
Personally, I wouldn't acquire any released material without paying for it.  That's just me.  I know others that do, and I don't judge them for it.   It makes for a pretty impressive .mp3 collection of all my cds!  But I can't find any cited quotes or "official" statement on it anywhere.  I suppose it's possible that they haven't been around long enough to come across much of this, but certainly 2 full tours = plenty of live material.
 
Well, if anyone knows anything for sure, would you please let me know?
 
Thanks,
 
Debbi

I'm not to certain about tape trading, but I'm pretty sure that they're against Napster-like concepts (quickly hiding his full collection of Creed MP3's)... are you refering to trading your MOP and Human Clay cassettes/CD's with your friends, or are you refering to taped performances of them from TV?  Personally, I don't see how they could be against the lending of CD's and cassettes for the purpose of spreading their music out to new fans who would potentially purchase the CD/cassette themselves, as long as a bootlog copy isn't made in the process... I mean, it would help to expand not only their fan base, but also their sales.  But as I said before, all I know of for sure is that they don't like Napster, or any other program/company resembling the sharing of copywritten material.  But with the collection of Creed MP3's that I have, I don't see the need in myself visiting Napster for Creed music for a long long time...

I've seen the wicked fruit of your vine, Destroy the man who lacks a strong mind
Human pride sings a vengeful song Inspired by the times you've been walked on
My stage is shared by many millions, Who lift their hands up high because they feel this
We are one We are strong, The more you hold us down the more we press on
What if you did? What if you lied? What if I avenge? What if eye for an eye?
