Concert recordings
Very cool idea and implementation. You go to a show. You like what you heard and want a recording of it. You take your USB flash drive, go to a kiosk, pay $10 or so and download the show as recorded from the mixing board as an MP3 file.
There is a nice writeup of it at
CNN:
bq. There was the 78, the 45 and then the MP3 -- all heralded as great innovations in music recording technology. Fast forward a bit and now, minutes after your favorite band sounds its last note, you can load a live recording onto a cigarette-lighter-sized hard drive hanging off your keychain.
bq. Take it home, toss the digital files onto your computer and then e-mail it to all your friends with the message "Dude! These guys are awesome!"
The company that is doing this is
