Rockpalast June 1978

Hey everyone,
This is one of those copyright issues, but I thought I'd ask just in case. Meat's performance on the German TV show Rockpalast in June of 1978 is online at that grossly innacurate (just my opinion) jimsteinman.com. Meat Loaf is so sexy in this video, very young and handsome (not that he's not still handsome, and young, oh never mind) Anyway, to make a long story even longer, Rockpalast cannot re-air or sell this video (copyright issues) and I was wondering if anybody had a 'gasp' recording of this show that they might copy for me? I am very against copyright infringement since it, ultimately, takes the money out of Meat's pocket. (which we can all atest he works pretty damn hard for) but I really would like the opportunity to see this show, since it aired before I was born. (and once again because he looks particularily hot!) It would be only for my personal viewing pleasure, and if people are anti-pirated videos, I completely understand..I just wanted to see if anybody might lend, or make me a copy to enjoy.
cheers for now,
Leah

Are you unable to download it from Jimsteinman.com?

Personally, I think it's ok to copy or download a recording if it's no longer commercially available. If there are no `legitimate' copies out there, Meat certainly isn't any worse off by a person downloading it.

Yeah...
I can download it, but the quality of the transfer unto the internet is somewhat poor. Meat is a little blurry. Thanks your your response, though,
take care,
Leah
