What do folk make of these things? Bargains, or daft? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/24-Vols-450-Ghost-Horror-Stories-OTR-MP3-Audio-Books-/1705 21304583?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Books_Audiobooks_AudioBooks_GL&hash=item27b3dc9e07 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GHOST-STORY-CHRISTMAS-DVD-10-TALES-3-DISCS-/380257265700?c md=ViewItem&pt=UK_CDsDVDs_DVDs_DVDs_GL&hash=item5889196824 |

Looks a bit suspect, Tony. Is all this material really available 'in the public domain', as stated? |

I think it's all public domain - the actual stories should be, anyway. Not sure about the various radio series, but they could be as well. |

I'm sure the stories are, but would the "Ghost Stories for Christmas" tv programmes be public domain? That second DVD set looks decidedly iffy! |

Yep, I reckon Ghost Stories for Christmas is definitely bootleg, and probably poor quality to boot. The MP3 audio stories might be out of copyright, but I reckon the quality will probably be terrible. Isn't it one of those things where people download them from internet places called "torrent sites" or something like that? Take a look at the eBayers' feedback. If they've sold the same items - or similar ones - before, then it's dodgy. There's a lot of that about on eBay.  |
