When it comes to old, deleted obscure stuff then p2p is sometimes the only way. I think of that in much the same way as lending a video to a friend when I've recorded a TV prog that I wasn't able to watch at the time and neither were they. It's not like you could actually buy it anywhere so you haven't done anybody out of any royaties.

One interesting example of the benefits of P2P is that Busman discovered a Scandinavian band neither of us had ever heard of before and now we're firm fans - all due to something someone recorded from the radio originally and then shared.
