Very many people believe live lobsters, crabs, and other live crustaceans should be frozen before cooking. Freezing (wrap them first in a kitchen towel) sends them gently off to sleep, so when you put them into boiling water they feel no pain. The brief freezing period to ensure they are killed humanely is not sufficient to affect the flavour.

How long after a lobster dies before it is bad to eat?
Forever. Seriously, though, if you are asking about eating a lobster that has died, they start to deteriorate rapidly after death. Unfortunately, there are seafood companies that will sell lobsters (cooked and/or frozen) that died in their tanks - and you have no idea of how long they sat around before being processed. I believe they are called "stills". Lobsters are best if they are live until right before cooking.
Does a lobster have to be alive before cooking?
It is actually illegal in someplaces to boil them alive. The more humane way to cook them is by first freezeng them that way they don't suffer. There are studies demonstrating that lobsters feel pain and also suffer. Let's be responsable! if we kill to eat, the least we can do is provide a decent death to the animals. We owe them that.
