In this email purportedly from Louis in 2009, he sternly but politely asks someone to take down their bootleg taping of his routine:

>>HI. I’m Louis CK. Can you please take this down? This show is a work in progress and was not intended to be passed around the internet. I have absolutely no problem, personally, with file sharing, and if you take everythign [sic] I have on the market on DVD, CD, and put it up for free downloading, I don’t care. But this is an artistic and personal request. Please take this torrent down. thanks. LCK

Clearly, the reason is that he's not happy with an unfinished version of his work floating around.

That isn't a copyright thing though, that is a standup thing.

Right, sorry if I implied otherwise. My intent was to show that he's not an asshole in these matters (I guess I should've excerpted more of the post).
