In light of some harsh accusations made here, I first want to say that in case it is not clear to anyone, Bobubas has stated that the tape in his possession was not produced illegally. I can think of multiple examples in which someone can have a legal and legitimate recording in their possession. One example would be the advance copies that move producers mail out for voting consideration.
Nancy provided a link to information (by Wikipedia's standards, that is) about what constitutes a bootleg that addresses not only production but also distribution. Returning to my example above, if one of the screeners were to decide to dupe and sell their advance copy, that act would be considered illegal pirating. Turning now to Bob's most recent post, he said that the "recording was made for the production staff's own use." I'm not an attorney, but as I understand the issue, a sold copy of the recording (in the absence of the needed permissions) could meet the definition of a boot. Of course, he did not say on the Forums that he intends to copy or sell it, and it's possible that he actually does have legal permission to do so.
Finally, thank you for the clarification, Bobubas, but to address your final comment, NO ONE has the freedom to slander (libel, actually) another fan's reputation here, but I am not seeing instances of it by Nancy in the topic, though she did say that it is illegal for you to own the recording, which you and I have now directly addressed, and I don't feel that anyone reading this topic would be confused about that issue at this point. I'm very sorry if my decision upsets you.
