A method comprises the steps of: providing an opportunity for prospective event
ticket purchasers to pre-purchase one or more copies of a recording of at least
a portion of a live event; conducting said live event; recording at least a portion
of said live event; determining a number of copies of said recording pre-purchased;
calculating a desirable number of copies of said recording to be manufactured;
manufacturing said desirable number of copies of said recording; and distributing
at least some of the manufactured copies of said recording to those that pre-purchased
them. The opportunity for pre-purchasing copies of the recording occurs at a point
of sale of tickets for the live event to be recorded before the live event occurs.
