The thing is I don't understand paying for this stuff when it is available for free.. the Pogues make no money off of it, just a company scamming more money off the fans..

It's the law of supply and demand.
They are only available "unofficially".
Not everyone has the capability to download from an streaming video source; therefore, it is faster (and cheaper) than purchasing the do-it-yourself equipment to buy it from someone who has it.
I agree, the band should profit too. And if they released ANY of the tapes in their archives, they would. Because we are not that picky about production.
So, here's hoping...

Terita,
If you have a look around related Pogues sites, I am sure you can find fans who have this stuff already.
I don't think they will release a back catalogue of Live stuff.. Look how long it took for the band to release the one live cd from the 2001 tour as they were never happy with the production or sound from previous shows.. Fair play to the Pogues, a band with integrity and passion.. something sadly lacking in many bands today in my humble opinion...
