Thin Lizzy : at the BBC box set

[IRON-MaN]

Just got my hands on this incredible 6 disc - 1 DVD set of some of Lizzy's finest rarities and live recordings ! unfortunately I have a silly problem with my package , as disc one of the set is actually the same as disc two , I can't return it to amazon.co.uk as posting would cost me a lot , I was wondering if anyone bought the box set here on the forums and whether it's possible to make me a CD quality copy of the first disc of the box set ? I can't recommend this box set enough , a bit pricey , but definitely worth the money ! I read somewhere that the box sets are selling much better than expected and that they might get sold out soon ! so if you're a die hard lizzy fan , better go and grab a copy before it's too late ! (just make sure you've got all the discs right)

^Have you looked into returning it? I don't know if there are different terms and conditions if you're abroad but if I return a faulty item to Amazon I usually print off a postage paid returns label, that the returns process creates for you.

Unfortunately its a bit complicated , I get my items delivered to U.K mail address I own there and which is later forwarded over to me here in Dubai by a courier service ! I just need a CD quality copy so I add it to my digital collection , any help would be highly appreciated !

[Billy Underdog]

Download it. You've already bought it anyway, so no morale broken...

Sounds reasonable , where can I download it from ? ( I'm really illiterate when it comes to downloading cause I don't do it at all !
and the thing is , I need it in high CD quality as well ! thanks for your thoughts anyway.

[Billy Underdog]

Download a Torrent-programme (BitTorrent, YTorrent, BitComet), you should find it on Google.
Then go to a torrent-site, (like the infamous Pirate Bay) or just Google to find the torrent you're after, and click on it. I myself use torrentz.com, as it's a search-engine that searches other torrent-sites.

Look for FLAC-files if available, they're usually the best quality (but they're very big in byte-size, and not all mp3-players or computer-programmes can read them...).

Look at me, know nothing about computers, but seemingly know "everything" about illegal downloading...

I've got to get my hands on this box set...the Peel Session cuts alone would be enough to make me crave it: those versions are incredibly good, some are even better than the album versions.
