yeah for stems i understand because this is rare, but personally, I don't want to spend money just for instrumental or acapella stuff
I know somebody who sell instrumentals for 50$, this is very expensive just for this kind of stuff no ? Even if it's rare instrumentals (liberian girl by michael jackson for example)

I steer clear of those intending to profit off of things they don't have the rights to sell, but that's just me. When you actually work in the music industry for awhile you see a lot of shady things going on and you begin to really feel bad for the small artists just trying to make a living. I've seen interns take unreleased tracks with thumb drives right out of the studio, then find out later their boss was doing it too just to give out to their friends. Technically making unofficial remixes/mashups is illegal unless you get the permission of the copyright holder/s though I think they tend not to pursue it any further unless there's money involved.
As far as people selling acapellas/instrumentals it happens. I know of a dj who tried to sell one of my friends Nu Shooz-I can't Wait studio acapella a few years ago for $500. The sad part is there probably are people out there that would do it. I'd rather invest in some studio gear instead haha

I know a few people who try to do this. It's really odd to me, seeing as the people who sell them don't own them.
I once had the opportunity to buy the Michael Jackson Master (Multitrack) Discography. Thing is they were charging enough for me to go buy a car. I bought the car. But if I had gotten those files, and it wasn't a scam, I'd be completely amazed.
If you're going to buy, make sure to ask for previews of EVERY FILE THEY CLAIM TO HAVE.
If they can't do that, they're either lazy pricks, or are trying to scam you.
If you are selling, be weary of agents, who will buy instantly, then sue the living shit out of you.
And make sure to send previews
Have fun!
