Whoa, this is pretty brilliant of an idea. I'm curious how this type of
novel strategy and the Free Ozzfest plan this summer are going to play
out. Obviously, the web-based performances are a lot more scalable, and
possibly the beginning of a new trend. However, the Free Ozzfest has
some interesting test cases (that us all on the web have helped pioneer)
for application of free/open content and how to make money. 

Ok, I finished these thoughts up on my blog:
