BUSTED: UK company is raided for fake vinyl production


This is pretty interesting:

I wonder how much start-up costs there were with this and what their return on investment would be?  Seems to me, this is a very hard way to make money...

I'm not familiar with this incident, but it's possible that it involved an otherwise legitimate pressing plant that also engaged in piracy. This was actually not that uncommon during the LP era. See this as an example.

@cleeds...thanks for the link! That article is about fake "tapes".
Fake LPs were also common, and Sam Goody got caught with those, too.
