The Ultimate torrent?, can we have it? let's make it happen! Options

Hello fellow Live aficionados...

In some other thread, I came across this link to a torrent.

If you download it and look at the contents, it's over 3 GB of Live bootlegs! Some of them are quite rare, too, I think.

Unfortunately, it's a dead torrent. There's one other leecher there, perhaps a hopeful fool like myself, and absolutely zero seeders. But it gives me an idea.

With the closing of bootlegheaven, and liverockspace's erratic management, it's kinda hard to find a good collection of bootlegs... professional/soundboard/radio/TV/DVD-rip recordings, and/or solid audience recording. Me? Well, I lost most of my bootlegs, and I have no other place to find them. I've gotten nearly all the best ones available here, but that's far from complete.

I was wondering if someone would put together a massive torrent file to include the soundboard and (quality) audience shows they have here, with maybe the B-sides/rarities thrown in. That's a big request, I know, especially coming from one so inadequate when it comes to uploads and such. For my part, I'd be completely willing to seed the torrent for as long as possible, as long as there are leechers.

What do ya say, Live fans? Particularly ++Ed++, Hoodstock, and other prominent members of the FoL community.... let's make it happen!

Sounds like a good idea. A few questions though:

1. Will the torrent consist of mp3 or FLAC files?
2. Videos can get quite large... are you sure you want to include them?
3. Which shows will be included? Should they meet a certain standard (sound quality and bitrate) before being included?

I think we should start off by listing the shows/content that you'd like to see in the torrent.

I suggest the following:

All Over You (bootleg CD) - 1995
Supernatural (bootleg CD) - 1995
Dance with Pinkpop (bootleg CD) - 2001
