Not a great deal I suppose as both are unsanctioned formats of the track. I suppose the authorities come down harder on bootleggers, as they are trying to make money out of repressing records, whereas mp3s are largely distributed without charge. The scale of mp3 distribution is also so widespread, it is almost impossible to trace the source of an mp3. Ed

The only reason i asked..

Was looking at tune on e bay at the mo Q words thats the choice..wanted it for years last on for £150 ! Obviously massively hard to get hold of so i got it on Bootleg instead. On again at the mo on ebay up to £50+ already 7 days left. Suppose its all about how much your prepared to pay for a tune you really want.:D

Yep, With records, I suppose the price your prepared to pay is what it's worth to YOU. Q Words to me is probably worth a tenner max, but I can appreciate that it is a sought after tune, well hyped up (Which sways people to bid higher) I noticed the seller has a brand new copy, and he wants £500!!!
