they were great until mp3s came around... i spent big money ($50 for a soundgarden bootleg) on some bootleg stuff in the 90s. now, anyone can make a bootleg. either record it themselves of download it.

they vary in quality. i have a bootleg of a squarepusher performance from the tour following the release of "go plastic" that is poor in quality so you barely hear anything, and then i have a bootleg of RDJ's DJ set from ATP back in 2001 that sounds great, then again he's just spinning (though he does throw in some squarepusher and his own stuff of course)
i would make it a point to be sure to check the bootleg before taking hours to download it, to make sure you're not wasting your time on wank.
i remember when you could buy bootlegs at smaller chain stores here in states... of course, thanks to the wonderful RIAA, you don't get that anymore.

yes, i'd either get mine at CD Warehouse/Exchange (they're all franchise owned therefore they do what they wish) or at CDX in Hurst, which was my old haunt back before it moved, also where i did my first live show.
they had a glass case where they kept bootlegs, and had about 50 or more of them all lined up, and one day a guy came in and just took a look at the bootlegs, then left. The next day, they got a letter saying they would be prosecuted if all their bootlegs were not taken off the shelf immediately.

Forever Young in Grand Prairie may still sell them too, though it's been {bad pun/}forever{/bad pun} since i have been there.
They do have a fine selection of imports though - that's where i got some of the tougher-to-get-ahold-of-Aphex stuff, like the On EP and the Ventolin EPs.
