if i didn't already own the music they have for download and just wanted to hear the music, this would be a great way to get it cheap................but there would be no artwork or signatures . I'll stick with buying it the traditional way ~ through the store.......

I think it is crazy that older DA and SE stuff is not available for downloads. Isn't anyone interested in that revenue stream? I don't think it should continue to be discounted to the degree that it has. I wonder if Dan can share how much the business the Dogs downloads have done.

I would love to have the CDs and artwork, but they are just too much $$ on ebay for some of the older stuff. I also fear some of us may be dead before it all gets re-released. Why can't they be released for download in some fashion? I just don't understand. I would probably pay 1/2 to 2/3 of a CD price to go ahead and get them. I would still probably buy CD re-releases too.

If we had the rights to rerelease every title.. they would be rereleased. You have to have the rights to rerelease it whether you put it up as a download or release it as a CD. In some cases, the folks we have to get the rights from will even specify *how* we can release something.. if they don't want it available as a download, then we can't do that even if we have the rights to release a CD.

As for why the owners themselves don't do something like this... I think its the same reason that most of them won't release it on CD either. They have to be convinced that they can make money off of it or else it just isn't worth their time. But, they're also protective over their investment enough not to let anyone else release it either - unless they can convince them that its worth their time.

I'm convinced they (whoever the actual owners are) just think DA SE etc. is just small potatoes and don't give a damb.
