 Yes, I was referring to bitorrent. Once you have set up the client on 
your pc , it really can't get any easier. There are many bitorrent 
clients out there. The one I had used that never seemed to give me 
troubles was called, incredibly, bitorrent.

 You download whichever one suits your OS, install it and then go 
searching for shows.

There are many sites out there. Some of the most popular ones I've run 
across are DimeaDozen, The Traders Den, Pure Live Gigs, and countless 
others... For all you have to sign up for an account. I think Dime is so 
maxxed out they might not even be accepting new members. There are many 
many more sites...just do a search on "Zeppelin torrent" and click away.

 Anyhoo, once you've signed up and find a show, really all you should 
have to do is double click on the torrent link , the bitorrent client 
fires up, you give it a folder name and let it run its course.

 You will also then need a program to convert the flac ( most popular ) 
files into waves for burning to cdr. I have used DBpoweramp without any 
hitches as well. There are many more. Again, just do a search on flac.

 Almost any torrent site has an extensive FAQ section explaining all of 
this in painful detail.

 Good luck,
