The beauty of EAC is being able to compensate for less than accurate hardware (to an extent). This is true only if you run it in Secure mode. In burst mode, it relies completely on your hardware being accurate.

If various sources on the internet are to be believed, then he is a profiteer, a thief, and a liar. But let's give him the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps he would like to respond to this email and defend his "good" name. Anyone deserves that right. If I'm wrong in this warning, then I welcome the truth to come out in its place, and I apologize for spreading further what must be someone's incredibly vicious vendetta against poor Bill :-( He has posted to this list several times, including this most recently: "From: Levyrocks@aol.com Subject: Expanded WHO/McCartney List Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2002 13:48:35 EDT I now have folling WHO/Paul Macs for trade.... " Here is a warning about him circulating on a WHO-related list: ********************** Message Number: 1 Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2002 22:23:26 EDT From: Lowgens@ Subject: WARNING:BAD TRADER/SELLER Sorry,long....but a must READ: Has posted on alt.music groups such as The Who,McCartney,and several others under this "new" alias of his.Has ripped off thousands (not hundreds) of traders and buyers over the past few years.Real name is Steve Katz and also has a business partner named Dan Rease.Up til about 10 months ago,many were aware of Rease but not the mystery partner of his.Well,it is Steve Katz..both from the Northern Florida area.There are other partners who operate out of the Va. areas. Their is a website (soon to be updated with this info)....from a trader,who has encouraged people to post this URL to as many public or even private forums as possible to help prevent others from being ripped off. Clues to go by are on this site..most notably is his or their penchants to use female names as sign offs while stating:"Hey,it's Kate.My friend Bill has the new Who audio from Shoreline". Or:"This is Kate.My friend Bill is in the hospital and dying....and he would really want this show on tape",etc. DO A SEARCH on GOOGLE using the email address levyrocks@aol.com and you will both laugh and puke at his posts.The "Bill is in bed sick" post is nauseating. As we can see,Bill aka Steve aka Katie aka Sadie Mae Glutz aka Charles Manson.Ok,you get the point....is now posting just signing off as "Bill". Well Bill's recovered.Good for him! No to mention people (unawares/newbies) have figured his ridiculous scheme out & have not been buying (literally and figuratively) into it,so "he" or 'they" have backed off on the "SYBIL" ploy. Also,via the website I am posting...enter in as many of his alias emails posted on this site,on the GOOGLE SEARCH and you would not believe how obvious his pattern is. But new and unsuspecting traders and fans who buy from him,never get anything back. The Bill Levy character will suck in fake trades and sales for a month or 2,all the while telling the person on the other end that his shipping date will be 3-4 weeks or something to that effect,so as to make as much use out of this email address...until he rips of as many dollars and tapes as he can...and poof,the address is gone. Many trustworthy traders do send their end of the deal first to this psycho,unfortunately. His recent post to alt.music.bootlegs includes WHO material. He had posted to alt.music.who a few days ago,and I also posted the warning here about him. Stay away....FAR away! THE WEBSITE with this lunatics past history.Please bookmark is as a reference.I heard he still uses some of these believe it or not. http://pages.infinit.net/ronfaith/content2.html#addresses From: Bill Levy (levyrocks@aol.com) Subject: Have WHO/Paul McCartney Shows!!

In case many of you did not make it to the bottom of the post,this is the site for info on,most likely,the biggest ripoff artist on the hx of the internet. http://pages.infinit.net/ronfaith/content2.html#addresses Not mentioned earlier,I am pretty convinced their is no Dan Rease and his cohorts.I believe this may be the work of one person named Steve Katz,and Dan Rease is an alias..and alter ego. *************************************************** Reading that I wondered if it could be true, but I have also heard other warnings about him, so I decided to investigate the matter for my own eyes/ears. I thought I would share some of my own investigation about this person with this group. I started my investigation by reading this link below. Anyone thinking of contacting him should check this out first: http://pages.infinit.net/ronfaith/content2.html#addresses Then for more fun, go to GOOGLE and do a "web" search on "levyrocks@aol.com". Doing that, it led me to http://www.euronet.nl/~everhaar/guests.html which is a guestbook where i saw a post from levyrocks that reads: >>>>>> Date and time: Tue Aug 7 17:58:55 MET 2001 Name: Kate Country: USA Email: levyrocks@aol.com Homepage: http://www.rarerockvideos.net Favourite album: Born to Run Comments: Have 100s of rare Bruce videos on my list plus much more -Kate <<<<< So i went to the site for "rarerockvideos" it has all sorts of legal disclaimers, and seems to be spouting how it is a not for profit site blah blah blah blah blah and when you get down to it, it REALLY looks like a major FOR PROFIT seller(s) who even take CREDIT CARD ORDERS and charge $25 per videotape!!!! http://www.rarerockvideos.net/order2.html Just seeing that this levyrocks person signed the guestbook as "kate" is confirmation of some of lowgens warning on the WHOlist! But seeing the site is pretty damning evidence in itself :-( So i then did another search on GOOGLE...this time i searched for levyrocks@aol.com under "groups" instead of "web"......everything i see there backs up what lowgens on the WHO list was saying!!!!!! http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=levyrocks@aol. com+&sa=N&tab=wg The guy posts all over the place about selling/trading....and there are even angry warnings about the guy RIPPING people off and not sending them things that they pay for!!!

I am looking for some nice recordings of The Stone Roses. Quality is key. I've only ever encountered one other person with any, and did manage to get one from him (9/21/95). And, although this is a good tape, I want more. I have plenty to trade, including the afore mentioned SR show if you're interested. Thanks.

Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2002 18:47:47 -0500 (CDT) I'm trying to remember the name/web site for a device that works in combination with mic capsules (eg, AKG, Neumann) and active cables, but which replaces the mic bodies and phantom power. It may replace a preamp too; can't recall for sure. It sells for around $800 IIRC and is made by a small (one-man?) shop. Does this ring a bell for anyone? Thanks much. -- Mark Mayhle mark@mayhle.com ------------------------------ From: Greg Gardner Subject: ISO Patch for Phil Lesh in Atlanta Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2002 17:23:41 -0700 (PDT) I am a new taper.

Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2002 22:40:58 -0400 Hey now, gang. Seems I goofed when I created the track listing file for the JGB, 12-4-83 show. The "Run for the Roses" is also missing from the master tape. Here is a corrected track listing file: http://fvenezia.homestead.com/files/jgb/jgb__12-4-83.txt .sorry about that, everyone. Thanks, Rick, for bringing it to our attention! Have a good one. frank =====Original Message===== From: RB . The JGB shows were great, I did notice that the JGB 12-04-83 info file doesn't match what is on the discs. I found that Run For The Roses is missing but is listed on the info files as being on disc 1. Was Roses also missing like Cats due to the tapers being busted? . ------------------------------ From: "webmaster@StunGun.com" Subject: DICK! Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2002 00:41:04 -0400 Watch out for this guy ... Eric Hart rivertrance@hotmail.com 130 E. Franklin Missoula, MT 59801 A while back I offered an extra tape I spun up for trade or BnP. I got two responses ... I sent the extra tape to the first and made another copy for Eric who I set up a trade with. So six months later I still have not gotten a tape from him ( a tape which was supposedly finished a few days after we set up the trade and was just laying around waiting to be mailed ) ... After not receiving the tape from him I sent him a few e-mails, nothing nasty, the first few I only asked him if he had received the tape I sent him, hoping for a yeah I did, thanks, sorry for the delay with yours but I just mailed it out so you should get it soon .... wishful thinking right? He finally responded once to the numerous e-mails I sent him with some story about how his girlfriend just had a baby and the tape was finished and sitting on his dresser he would mail it out on Wednesday ... so unless it got lost in the mail he never sent it as it would have taken the pony express less than six months to get it here .... convenient that he stopped answering my e-mails as well. This was the first time I had ever TRADED with this DICK ... I had done a few BnPs FOR him in the past either from offers I made or from trees .... he was always prompt in getting the media to me then, so he could get his shows. And I understand life can be hectic we all have to deal with it ... but don't give me some bullshit excuse ... I imagine he just found out his girlfriend got pregnant the day before we set up the trade ... and then popped it out a few days later. Hey Eric ... my apologies if you are dead, in the clink, or managed to flush yourself down a toilet ... otherwise you are just a DICK!
