The important thing is that a lot of people did download a ton of shows while they were up. The fans are pissed and are making an effort to get shows out to those who missed out. That is why a lot of the soundboards are showing up on torrent all of a sudden. Management has always relied on mutual trust with the trading community regarding what could be traded and how. Now the fans feel that trust has been violated. It is hard to say what is going to happen.

it sucks that the shows were taken down, but i think everyone is overreacting. their trading policy is still the same, they just dont want to be on archive.org. if they are going to be selling shows it doesnt make sense for there to be a mass archive where you can download any show from their career for free in just a couple of clicks.

I am just hoping that they have a subscription based system...I would pay that way.

This is a PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:

If you do not have it already, any self-respecting Head should go to etree and grab the "Field Trip" show from 8.27.72.  Hands down on eof the greatest Dead shows of their career.  GO NOW, the SBD is up, and take advantage of people\'s rage towards the Dead as SBDS galore are flooding servers EVERYWHERE!!!

I understand why folks are pissed tho. If I spent a lot of time uploading AUD copies to the archive for months on end to help with the Grateful Dead project (some shows / years that are missing from the vaults mind you) only to have all that effort wiped away so the remaining members can make a few more dollars is sad.

I can undersatnd the Boards being pulled but all the AUD and to only allow streaming is stupid. It is free advertising for the soon to be realeased Official copies at $20/flac download.

Help on the Way: Phil Lesh Weighs in on Archive.org Debate

http://www.relix.com/cgi-bin/content_list.cgi?type=news

Quote from: Relix.com
"I was not part of this decision-making process and was not notified that the shows were to be pulled," says Lesh. "I do feel that the music is the Grateful Dead\'s legacy and I hope that one way or another all of it is available for those who want it."
"We are musicians not businessmen and have made good and bad decisions on our journey," Lesh continues. "We do love and care about our community as you helped us make the music. We could not have made this kind of music without you as you allowed us to play \'without a net.\' Your love, trust and patience made it possible for us to try again the next show when we couldn\'t get that magic carpet off the ground. Your concerns have been heard and I am sure are being respectfully addressed."
