Default Nine Inch Nails: The First Open-Source Band?

Reznor today released more than 400GB of high-definition concert footage from three shows on the "Lights in the Sky" tour, seeding these massive video files and pre-organized Final Cut Pro sequences across BitTorrent.

I have "Ghosts" and "The Slip" on vinyl. . . "The Slip" is okay. . . I haven't tried re-mixing "Ghosts" yet.

It cost me a pretty penny. . . but that was for a bunch of bitchin' plastic.

Plus I didn't think it was that great versus the few other titles I bought last year. . . there again, I tend to not to buy anything "people" tell me to buy.

should've gone with the download

but yeah, $40 for the vinyl.

back when ghosts came out, I ordered the $75 limited edition version. beautifully packaged. another shame about modern music, the lack of album art....

I don't have a output box that sounds as good as my turntable.

Even then, it's easier (and cheaper) to do some speed effects straight from the turntable back into ProTools.
