last tour more than 35% of shows had some sort of iem recording in circulation (either in the form of a matrix or as single feed) while for the previous tours it was less than that (except maybe elevaton tour), and i know i was responsible for a percentage of this.
if there were statistic on when these were unleashed to the public you would find that a vast majority of them were from 2009, so that means that the public's awareness of iem recordings began mostly in 2009 (some iem's were previously taken as soundboards ...), and thus the band's awareness of people taping their feeds probably started at the same time, and while previously the technology to encrypt wasn't available it now is so the option of switching their gear is far more possible than it ever was,

is your ego as big as the paycheck you're taking when you sell those blurays ?
you want people to share their recordings while you sell some mixes done from other people's sources ... isn't it ironic ? don't you think ?
Originally posted by germcevoy:I'm still of the belief that if they wanted to encrypt their feeds they would already have done so already. Tapers and those who listen to IEMs are an infinitely tiny percentage of fans and I imagine still well under the radar of anyone high enough up the U2 command chain to care about.

PS: what is your problem with me, Julien? what did I do TO YOU?
you still hold a grudge agains me because I commented on your DTS Paris mix?

with soundchecks allowing people to eavesdrop on personal conversations it's another level and the band could decide to take actions against that, it's clearly not the same as recording a live gig. this kind of things almost cost a band his taper's policy of allowing recordings because people were able to listen to their conversation with their iem's (Dave Matthews Band). would you like for u2 not to be pretty open about the recordings ?

you really think your opinion on one of my matrixes has anything to do with it ? get over it i don't care about your 'expertise level', it has to do with the fact you sell recordings, you know ... the line not to cross, and yet you cross it contantly. I've never taken any money for a recording, and you should not, it's simply wrong.

have the opinion that work/time/equipment should be compensated?

I especially bought a camera for the U2 gigs, most propably I will not ever use it again at a gig or in private. for my professional work I use other cameras and for private, too.

Julien, there is not just black or white and who made the "rules"/"laws" ?
can you still leave me alone please and mind your own business? I am not asking for much here.
