I just read this from the biggest Finnish newspaper (Helsingin Sanomat). I'll try to translate it but I'm not so good at it. If someone's willing to do it better, please do. I'm not gonna even try to translate it word to word.
The custom of Tampere has found more than 3000 illegal concert recordings. Two young men have been arrested. The two men had bought concert recordings that were recorded in secret. The recordings had been transformed to cd-like bootleg recordings, which were impounded (I'm not sure about this word at all, I found it in a dictionary, other word were embargo, seize, sequester) for the first time in Finland. The bootlegs had been made in famous artists' concerts, beginning from The Beatles. The Finns have bought and traded recordings and copied them with computers. They have sold copies in internet in their homepages to all over the world. They've had customers in Europe, Canada, United States and Mexico.

So bootleggers, be ware!
