Did the original "That's the Way It Is" album contain live concert recordings of some songs?

I ask because I downloaded from Qobuz the FLAC album. I know it has two extra songs, but the first 12 ones are the original tracklist. The thing is that some of them are clearly live recorded (or at least you can hear fans clapping and cheering), like in I Just Can't Help Believing, I've Lost You and Bridge Over Troubled Waters.

I didn't find useful info on Discogs, and Wikipedia says that the album featured studio recordings. So what I bought is some kind of alternative edition of the album or where the songs like that in the original too?

Thank you in advance for any help!

Are the episodes with pregnant Phoebe important for the show's plot (beside Phoebe's future sons), or can you skip them?

What I wanted to ask is if these episodes are so important for the show that if you skip them you miss something important (besides Phoebe's pregnancy). I watched Friends years ago and I can't remember about that...

I ask because I want to re-watch the show with my parents but I don't want to show them the whole part about surrogacy.

Legality of Using VPNs to Bypass Geoblocking on Live Streams of Foreign TV Channels in Italy

The Swiss channel RSI La 2 broadcasts Formula 1 races free-to-air, including via live streaming on its website, since the service is funded by the television license fee paid by Swiss citizens. Therefore, the live stream is available only to Swiss residents, and foreign IP addresses are blocked.

So, if you use a VPN connected to a Swiss server to access the live stream from Italy (a typical example of bypassing “geo-blocking” via VPN), is that illegal under Swiss law? Or is it legal?

Thank you in advance to anyone who is kind enough to share their opinion on this matter!

Legalità dell'utilizzo di VPN per aggirare blocchi geografici di live streaming di canali televisivi esteri.

Il canale RSI La 2 (svizzero) trasmette, anche in live streaming sul suo sito, le gare di Formula 1 in chiaro, dato che il servizio è finanziato dal canone televisivo pagato dai cittadini svizzeri (è come se fosse l'equivalente della nostra RAI). Perciò il live streaming è disponibile solo per gli svizzeri, e gli indirizzi IP esteri sono bloccati.

Nel caso dunque in cui si ricorra a una VPN con connessione a un server svizzero per accedere al live streaming (tipico esempio di superamento del "geo-blocking" tramite VPN), si commette un reato per la legge italiana (o per quella svizzera)? O è un comportamento lecito?

So che la nuova normativa del cosiddetto Piracy Shield riguarda la pirateria di IPTV (canali a pagamento come Sky) ma non sono sicuro se il bypass del blocco geografico sia contemplato in questo o altri corpi di legge.

Ringrazio in anticipo chi sarà così gentile da esprimere un'opinione al riguardo!

Site to download Tidal or Amazon Music VIDEOS?

I knew a website to download Tidal (or Amazon Music, I don't remember) music videoclips but I can't find it, does anyone know what that could have been? I need it because it's the only place I can find a specific video I'm looking for... Thank you so much in advance.

Instagram doesn't allow me to log in to my account. How much GDPR and privacy laws does that violate? Can you please help?

So, I had an old Instagram account that I want to delete because Meta is a sickening piece of crap. Well, I followed the steps to reset my password (I didn't remember it) via email. I got the email and followed the instructions, and I reset my password. So I tried to log in, and those jerks brought up a page saying that “for security reasons” I have to log in to Instagram from a device I’ve used with Instagram before (which I don’t even think I have). What the hell? Also I spare you all the other useless s**t I tried.

So what did I do? I tried looking for support pages. The result? Crap AI support, and there’s NO WAY to contact a Meta employee without logging into your account. No email, no phone numbers.

Now, I live in Europe, so I think this s**t violates every GDPR rule imaginable. How can I get those criminal jerks to help me delete that crappy account?
