I suspect that record companies believe music fans are like sports fans and will pay outrageous prices to be the first to own memorabilia. But the memorabilia market is in a general nosedive, just like the rest of the collectables market. I hope, hope, hope U2 does something like Coldplay did in streaming Viva La Vida briefly for free; it didn't hurt their CD sales at all, and created some new fans. Thanks for sharing that.
