Instant Concert CDs?

Posted by michael on from the taking-all-the-fun-out-of-it dept.

NickRipley writes "Clear Channel (owner of every radio station in America) is purporting to offer a new service, whereby concertgoers can receive an official recording of the concert they just attended, within moments after the final note. How will the RIAA react to this, seeing as this is legitimizing one of the oldest forms of music pirating? Also, what kind of equipment will have to be used to produce these so fast? Will the recording process suffer due to the hurry?"

    What's happening? Nobody is posting? Where are the witty remarks? The 'last week we hated that company cause it's closing all independent radio stations while we love it this week cause it's doing something cool'?
