Yeah, exactly. Studio albums, and any official releases really(live or studio) are put together so they can be easily produced, duplicated, and sold. So this is all about profit then?
In that case, let's face it. Since Sonic Youth "own" the music, they should be able to control, package, and sell the bootlegs as they see fit.
