Yet, another excuse for Ebay to protect their profits. They have the same stance with music piracy. Unless the record company/artist complain the items will not be withdrawn. Have a look for live recordings by any popular artist, Ebay is full of "rare live recordings". These are nearly all unofficial recordings by audience members (who usually share these with fellow fans for free) often with permission from the artist themselves - on the provision that these are never sold.

Maybe the solution is for a new law, making Ebay an accessory to a criminal act. That way I'm sure they would be more vigilant.
