	Bands Beating Bootleggers at Their Own Game Seattle Times, March 28, 2007 -- Owen Sloane is quoted in an article on "official bootlegging" -- a modern-day concept where high-quality concert recordings can be downloaded as soon as the music ends. Owen, who represents many high-profile acts such as Matchbox 20, Suzanne Vega, and American Idol rocker Chris Daughtry, says the idea of issuing official bootlegs was hatched by one of his clients, Frank Zappa, who gathered up 15 years worth of illegal bootlegs of his music and released it officially in a series called "Beat the Boots" in 1991.
