, or one-off mp3s ("Sign of The Crow 2"
? There was clearly a mix of the two going on in the initial post, I'm just trying to understand the harm in trying to hear something that exists physically only as a limited collectors item ("Enoch" &c.).

I dunno, I feel like this is a gathering place for Mountain Goats fans new and old, and I would not fault someone for asking to hear "Come, Come To The Sunset Tree" without paying $150 on eBay. I don't see how seeking out-of-print, non-iTunesable releases is different from trading live boots; the chance to be there is past (except to those with exhorbitant means/poor fiscal planning) and these people just want the joyous scraps that remain. I would of course defer to our gracious host, but just my two cents, and I don't think (?) he's really talked about sharing collector extras that were conceived to become quickly unavailable... apart from maybe, arguably, saying that the person who won Eugene Sue can do whatever they want with it.

Back in my day...
When I first got into the band there wasn't much in the way of downloads and the mall didn't carry any of John's albums. I ended up emailing John to find out where I could get his stuff. I was young and impaitent and in the nicest way John pointed out that half the fun of collecting music is the collecting part. He urged me to use the yellow pages to find record stores and hunt for them. He was totally right. Now it is a lot easier to find stuff online, you can find almost anything. Flex that Google-fu! I bet it will feel a whole lot better and sound sweeter after the search than if someone just emails you a torrent link of everything.
