I have been forced to add some of the more common cd-rs out there since some people find them interesting.
Personally I think cd-r's are destroying the bootleg market. I much rather buy real bootlegs than someones homemade cd-r.
There are hundreds of cd-r's out there, I do not intend to try to list every suede show that someone put on a cd-r. Instead, I'll try to provide a list consisting of the more common cd-r's that you can order from the net.

Notes: This is the first CD from the cheapest cd-r bootlegger on the market. This is a audience recording, made with a minidisc. The sound is below average, but listenable. The cheap price makes it worth getting. Still quite rare among collectors so you might have a fair chance of trading this with people to help extend your suede live collection.
