Second that about the Clifton Heylin book. That's a must-read. Some countries here in Europe have rather shady copyright laws. Its no uncommon to find a range of bootleg releases in the shops in Luxembourg for instance. Although they might have tidied that up now. The Republic of Ireland was pretty rife with it as well (particularly in Dublin) but there has been a clamp-down on that over the recent years. And many shops have closed anyway.

Actual manufacturing is on the way out IMHO. This place and others have done much to put the boot into production, so to speak. You still get the odd one at a carboot sale or some dimwit who decides to set up a little factory. Here in Northern Ireland some paramilitary organisations had a hand in that but the PSNI is pretty quick to roll them up. And rightly so.
