Bringing the story right up to date, "Bootleg tells the whole fascinating saga, from its underground infancy through the CD protection gap era, when its quasi-legal status threatened the major labels monopoly, to the recent explosion of online trading of MP3 files. Clinton Heylin provides a highly readable account of all the legal accounts, the busts, the defeats, victories in court, and the personalities--many interviewed for the first time for this book. "Bootleg is also a celebration of the music the bootleggers have put out, the stories behind the treasured bootlegs, and the legendary bootleg labels.
