eMusic’s new service ‘eMusic Live’ lets music fans bring home the live music just performed, recorded instantly onto a $20 flash drive. An eMusic Live kiosk is installed in each venue and records each show—presumably with a human operator (e.g. stoned indie rock ‘sound guy’), although the AP story doesn’t say—and afterwards fans purchase the music for an additional $10. If you can bring in your own flash drive and just buy the music, then I say, “Good” or, perhaps, “Awesome.” If you have to purchase a new $20 flash drive, I will say something negative, and scowl. Thanks, dreyfusslugado!
