Since our beloved unreleasedbeatles.com is closed atm here are some other way to get bootlegs and live footage.
First of all, it's not as simple as the method of UB (just saving the songs to the hard drive) so you're gonna have to be patient for this one. First of all, you will a small program called Bit Torrent and I will try to explain everything from scratch so everybody understands, oki?

Step one:
Read the Bit Torrent FAQ very carefully to know what is it.

Step two:
Once you have an idea of what BT (I'll use BT for Bit Torrent from this point on) is, you need to download it. The best BT program imo is burst.
Click here to get the program

Step three (optional):
It is better to have some kind of special firewall when donloading anything that blocks the IPs of those record companies and stuff that are trying to get you by invading your privacy. Peerguardian is the best choice as it is easy to use.
PeerGuardian is a powerful yet petite firewall application especially designed for
P2P users and anyone else who wants to protect his or her computer from
unauthorized searches instigated by private agencies and corporations.
PeerGuardian works by blocking and logging all TCP/IP connections to and from
known IP ranges used by known P2P foes, such as the RIAA, MPAA, MediaForce,
MediaDefender, BaySTP, Ranger, OverPeer, NetPD, and more.
Direct donload here

Step four:
Once you have BT installed you can go to:
http://novamesi.com.ar/  then use the search thing they have there, type Beatles and all the bootlegs and stuff will appear. Just click on the ones you want.

You can also go to this one: http://www.sharingthegroove.org/msgboard/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=17 It's actually a forum, you need to register for it (free) but there are some good bootlegs there.

-------------------------
Thats pretty much everything you need to know. One of the problems with BT is that most of the downloads are not in mp3 format, they are either in shn, flac, ape and others. The reason for that is because the sound quality is the same as the original recording (which is good) but the downside is that they are very large files (one album can be 300 or 400mb)
Once you get those big files you can convert them to mp3s. For that... well there are many ways to do that, I'm sure you guys can figure out by searching info, right? 

---------------------------
LEGAL NOTE: I'm just giving info and links to sites with all these cool bootlegs that have never been released. I'm NOT sharing/distributing in any way these materials

and one more thing: DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANY OFFICIAL RELEASES. Every now and then there are going to be official released albums available but don't get them. First of all, you're ripping off the band. Secondly, chances are that you'll get caught downloading official stuff because that's what the record companies try to do and are constantly looking for ppl looking for official stuff.

It was a darn fine Beatleg too....all of it was quite interesting to my ears. Just have to make sure you have a SHN converter of course as those files take up a huge amount of HD space unless you change them to MP3s.

Boy, that eight minute version of It's All Too Much is glorious. Definitely NOT too much.

yes, a shn converter comes in handy. Keep in mind that some of the bootlegs are in flac and ape (other types of files) and you should have a converter for those too.
