I know a number of guys who've been looking at doing reissues (mainly funk) and for rare stuff a bootleg will probably push you from the black to red assuming you weren't going to lose money anyway. In some cases if you've good marketing muscle and extra tracks you can push it through but for small operations it can be a killer.

I always avoid Radioactive records but sometimes pick them up if they are heavily reduced - and here's my suggested solution: pirate the pirates. I'll happily engage in swapsies of CDRs of these with others if you fancy. Fancy a hooky copy of Farewell Aldebaran, Relatively Clean Rivers, Fresh Maggots or Purple Image? Lemme know what ya wanna swap. At least this way the music continues to get round, nobody's proftiting and CDRs are sufficiently crap that if a real reissue happens you'll probably buy that if you like the music.

Or is this stupid?
