These are recordings that are available in cd format, aren't they?

On a sister (or brother) music forum there has been some debate on whether these copyright infringments should be applauded, or rather, allowed.

There has been some debate ? Really ? And what was the outcome of the debate ? I'm really interested to know.It might even justify a separate thread since this one is on the J.S.

Sonata in B Minor
BWV 1014
Allegro

Listening to this and confirming again that this is just not the sort of thing that touches me:

This seems to be the way most violinists play/record. I guess the emphasis is on a kind of soaring, singing, lyrical sound. Maybe violinists aspire to this?
And going back to this, which I think Mandryka recommended:
