STOP THE PRESSES!!!! We can download concerts??

Post by dixiechicken »

I may just be a Canadian, but we can go onto sights and downloads shows?? DVD's too or just the audio? Where do I go for this and how do I do it? Is it a trading thing where somebody burns a CD and mails it ow what? I'm a little excited.

The file sizes for the DVD's are too large to download effectively for most people. Audio of shows are downloaded all the time.

Trading / B&P's usually involve mailing disks back and forth to others...this is done for both audio and video (DVD) shows.

Personally, I prefer trading and B&P over downloading. I have made many good friends through trading...and I like recieving shows in the mail...kind of like geeting a Christmas present :D You don't get that experience with downloading.

I do have cable internet and do download shows, but give me trading anyday.

Silly Canadian. You mustve been waiting in line for healthcare this whole time. Haha. Just kiddin man. If you go to antsmarching.org, they have a download section with a million shows (of course as I write this it happens to be down, but its usually up.) The shows come in .shn format though, not .mp3, and theres a whole big faq over there as to what all that stuff is, how to convert, etc. Scope it out. As mentioned, its pretty much all audio when it comes to downloading.
