[[Film soundtrack]]s were often bootlegged. If the officially released soundtrack had been re-recorded with a house orchestra, there would be demand for the original audio recording taken directly from the film. One example was a bootleg of [[Judy Garland]] performing ''[[Annie Get Your Gun (film)|Annie Get Your Gun]]'' (1950), before [[Betty Hutton]] replaced her early in production, but after a full soundtrack had been recorded.{{sfn|Heylin|1994|p=37}} The [[Recording Industry Association of America]] objected to unauthorised releases and attempted several raids on production.{{sfn|Heylin|1994|p=31}} The Wagern-Nichols Home Recordist Guild recorded numerous performances at the [[Metropolitan Opera House (39th St)|Metropolitan Opera House]], and openly sold them without paying royalties to the writers and performers. The company was sued by the [[American Broadcasting Company]] and [[Columbia Records]] (whom at the time held the official rights to recordings made at the opera house), who obtained a court injunction against producing the record.{{sfn|Heylin|1994|p=32}} |
