I hope they learned:
- you need a US download site instead of schlepping all those bits
across the pond (there is -very- finite bandwidth between Europe
and the US; it all has to go across undersea cable or satellite,
neither of which are 'cheap' to install. Its a major constriction
point for large downloads for US customers from UK sites.)
- you need more than just 4 35-min MP3 files to make a concert
"available"
- people want song separation
- people want some form of artwork/credits, although they are willing
to tolerate a low budget production
- many people still cannot access the net with broadband equipment to
make such a download feasible so you still need to offer CD-Rs of the
material
- many people do not have CD-R burners, so you still need to offer
pre-burned CD-Rs for most customers
