need to check current sales numbers of concert discs

I believe there are 3 or 4 concert Blu-ray releases with a few more to come in the near future. If I were an audiophile label, I'd gauge my plans on how they sold. Also, I'm sure someone like Dr AIX could pose a question on his site re: the current enthusiasm of his customers for the new formats and get their opinions on possible HD format releases by his label.

I'd have to say that the desire for concerts/studio recordings on Blu-ray, as opposed to movies, will take a while to catch on before smaller labels invest the money to put out product.

As an aside, the draw for artists featured on the AIX Recordings label (just as an example) is going to be dwarfed by headliners in the "pop" music world. But at what point do the smaller labels bite the bullet and say "Fuck it! I'm taking the plunge and delivering the highest quality audio and video for my artists on Blu-ray."? Or do they ever?

II suspect the current (and near-term) Blu-ray releases have less than stellar soundtracks from a bitrate perspective. - oscar 14:04:32 04/26/07 (1)

those rumors - Joe Murphy Jr 18:40:33 04/26/07 (0)
