That is a very important distinction. There are a) _recordings_ that are
unauthroized, and b) _pressings_ that are unauthorized (but the material
might be legallyavailable by other means).
To be very precise one could call a) a bootleg and b) a pirate copy. The
immediate question is, however, how is this used in MusicBrainz?
