I think the difference is that with few exceptions, those records will not see a re-press, whereas with the UGE/Mohogany issue at-hand, the artist/label never even got a chance to repress them before the boots hit the street. If this is taken to its logical conclusion, artists will be forced to press up huge quantities of every record they want to release on the *assumption* that those records will sell quickly - and they will need to do it out of their own pocket (and I think this is just one of many bad consequences of a speedy bootleg).
