No, I don't know this guy, but I stumbled across this site a while back and it doesn't seem to have grown much in that time. Might be a good sign that the FREE market forces are working...I really don't think there will be too many more MK/DS/NHB bootleg (Selling) sites in the future, with all the Free torrent sites, trees, Hubs, vines and communities like ours who are spreading not just the music but also the "word" that you don't need to pay to listen to these great gems. Pottels recent 2008 gift of the mp3 vine and Allen's 200th torrent and the extreme generosity of Marie, Waldo, Martina, Fran, Nelly.........(too many to mention) are ample examples which prove the point.

Very brazen these people. Yes I just noticed the official stuff - they leave themselves wide open for prosecution. Hope someone gets him scrubbed out. Makes me more determined than ever to spread the word when these guys surface.

Found massive video clips from this guy on YouTube.   Hmm, it's really a bad thing that we are sharing freely with fans but still there are some bugs which spoil the soup.

Don't mince words, Pottel.  Please tell us how you really feel! ;D ;D ;D
Seriously, I've posted this person's website on both the other forums.   Most forum members know about these jerks, but some newcomers may not.    I wish youtube would stop him from advertising.  I think he must be the same guy in the UK who used to sell on ebay.  Everytime he'd get kicked off, he'd come back with another identity.

this guy (and his job) was mentioned on TK's forum a while ago. He had to close his site but after few weeks he came back with a new address  >:(

well, I hate that seller minimally for his all "promotion tags" on youtube.
First of all, I have to quote this:

"Basically I am running this site for 2 reasons. Firstly to build my collection of DVDs by trading with other fans, and also to help those who have no Mark Knopfler or Dire Straits DVDs to trade."

Help? And what DVD collection? He has only 16 DVDs on those lists...it is ridicolous...and it is pretty clear that nobody trades with him as he has no new and new DVDs...he is only selling...
Making profit of Mark
