This is my really-trying-to-be-helpful advice for the day:
For all of you who say you are clueless about bootlegs .... for as much time as you spend listening to U2 and talking about bootlegs or whatnot, why not take a few minutes to figure it out!
It's really not hard - I would guess the only thing you need to find is the program to extract WinRAR files, as most bootlegs in mp3 format on U2start are uploaded that way (rather than the old-school WinZip).
It's been ages since I've gotten WinZip, and don't remember if it was free or not, but even if it costs money to download, it will open up a WORLD of U2 goodness for you, and is likely worth the price.
On U2start, you would find a show, click on "audio bootlegs," click on the link(s) to download (usually Megaupload or Mediafire - both safe sites, I've never had issues with either), it downloads in one or two parts. You use WinZip to "open" the files, and it loads the mp3 files right on computer, and voila - they are ready to play on your computer, or put on your iPod, or burn to CD.
Thanks
I didn't know you had to download a separate program to convert the files. I thought maybe you could just download it and it would work.
Do they have separate songs as well as shows?
Yes. *will share it once it's downloaded and converted*
Cool, thanks
