I've never quite understood the need to take photos during a concert. When I see a band live, I want to watch and hear them play in person. I see no reason to look at them through my phone or camera, especially when I paid to SEE them with my own eyes. Some people film the entire concert with their phones, not even once looking up at the stage themselves. Then they upload that video to YouTube and the audio and video quality is absolutely terrible and the uploader doesn't even know how to film properly. It's like, was it worth it? Was it really worth it to do that shit?
Back in the day, when video recording wasn't as common, people who owned video cameras at least had some knowledge on how to use them and they positioned themselves in a good place to film. Because of this, some bootlegs from the 80's and 90's still sound relatively good.
Shit hit the fan in the early 00's when suddenly everyone had a crappy camera in their cellphones. I remember all those "*BAND* live 2006!" videos on YouTube that all lasted for maybe 20 seconds, looked like pixelated dumpster and all you could hear was the loud distorted base and people screaming. Again, was it really worth it to film it? Was it worth it to put it on YouTube? I guess it was.
