If I recall, about 5 years ago Pearl Jam released a CD of every concert they did on that particular tour.

How did that work out? Did they sell well? Was it a financial success for Pearl Jam? Did the deluge of live recordings affect future Pearl Jam sales, either positively or negatively? Did this strategy create any new Pearl Jam fans?

I wonder if the answers to these questions could provide insight as to why Prince doesn't release this stuff on Lotusflow3r.com, or even better - some proof that if he DID release it, his popularity/sales would benefit.

I guess no one knows.
