Speaking of marketing plans, I was traveling recently and noticed that 
Aerosmith had their MAKING-OF JADED documentary playing on Delta's inflight 
entertainment screen, with a note that you could listen to the entire album 
on the music system.

This seems to be a new development.  This was a relatively short flight, not 
nearly long enough to play a movie, so they had shorter videos instead--not 
the sort of artsy or risque thing they play on MTV/VH1, but concert footage 
and documentary type material.  I notice that one of Roger recent movies 
played on an airline as part of the marketing, too.

When you think about it, this could be a relatively huge market.  Figure the 
airline pays royalties for all the passengers to watch it, regardless of 
whether they're asleep.  Wonder if some of the footage from the WHO'S NEXT 
DVD
