SoÃ‚Â…some of you know that JEMS recorded the 2001 Notre Dame webcast direct from the satellite feed. I posted that audio a couple years ago and the response seemed to be positive in that it was considered the best version yet to circulate (oddly, a webcast-sourced version was posted to U2T a few months ago that some preferred even as the capture, by its very nature, should be inferior. Not throwing stones, I just don't understand how a direct capture from a satellite receiver could be inferior to a webcast downstream of the same source given the state of broadband in 2001).

While we were not able to capture live video ourselves, live video was recorded from the satellite though not of the multi-camera feed. From what I was told, this was because the feeds were coming through in PAL as that was the video system U2 employed on the road, but the so-called Bono-cam was NTSC and that feed was recorded. Now I honestly don't recall to what tape format the Booncam was captured (it was most likely Betacam), but well after the fact, JEMS was able to borrow and dub those pro tapes to what was the best format we could put our hands onto on short notice, Digital 8.

This DVD is the first time those Digital 8 tapes (three of them) have been transferred and circulated. Our good friend KS did the authoring and the syncing to the DAT audio source. He has done great work in the past and this one is no exception. He felt the quality was strong enough to author as a dual-layer DVD which will annoy some of you but at this point dual-layer burners are pretty common. This will be the only version.

Now, the real question is, is this better than what's circulating? I know at least one other satellite capture was made of the Bono-cam and it has always been my presumption that it was the source for all the copies in circulation. I have compared ours to the screen grabs at Achtung Bootlegs and it does appear to be an upgrade. The colors aren't as washed out (look at the green of Bono's guitar). The picture edges are more defined (read the word "Security" on the jackets near b-stage), and the audio should be an improvement. I have attached screen grabs of the menus and a few other frames to help guide you.

Sorry about the upload speed. This is going to take awhile and it will probably be turned off a few times over the weekend.

Butterking for JEMS

Indie Artists Discuss Dealing With File Sharing

Techdirt

- 1 days and 11 hours ago

Unfortunately, I can't find who first sent this in, but the site Inieoma recently had an interesting multi-part "discussion" on how independent artists are dealing with the issue of "piracy." Some of the parts are quite interesting. Simon Indelicate has a bit of a bipolar post that does a fantastic job laying out the economic issues of music production and consumption. He notes that the technology has flipped scarcity and abundance on its head -- entirely separate from the file sharing issue. He is pessimistic about new business models working for most musicians (about the only point I disagree with him on), but thinks that the overall world is a better place with the internet and cheaper production of music. Quite a good read.

Then there's an interview of Dan Bull, known around these parts for his musically brilliant open letters to Lily Allen and Peter Mandelson. In the interview, he discusses his views on the music business and things like file sharing. He notes that he's mainly "against... enforcing backwards laws in order to cling onto an obsolete business model."

Next up, is an interview with Matt Stockman who is starting up a new record label, called Sharabang, which plans to give away its music for free to "open up other revenue streams." No matter what industry you're in, to thrive you must firstly listen to your customers. For Sharabang Music it's about listening to music lovers, how music is now consumed and adapting to this to offer genuine choices. What we're actually doing by offering music fans a choice is trying to put the value back into recorded music by diversifying the product range and offering far more than can simply be sent over the internet. The whole interview is interesting, as Sharabang is working hard to come up with interesting scarcities. One cool idea is that every concert of a band on the label will be filmed with audience participation encouraged. And there will also be limited edition t-shirts that are tied to a specific event or group, to encourage people to buy more and "wear them with pride." We keep hearing more and more about companies stepping up to help artists embrace new business models, so it's great to hear of one more that appears to understand the best way to face the modern era.

There are some other parts to the discussion as well -- some I agree with and others I disagree with, but overall there are some great viewpoints and thoughts on this general issue of how musicians can adapt to a changing world. Perhaps none of it's really all that different from what we usually discuss around here, but it's still great to see how different people are expressing their opinions on the issue.
