air anyone arrival audio begging calls economic few great pbs people point price quality recording rolling shows start vengeance
We've been recording these great shows for 31 years, they air on PBS a few times and then they go on the shelf. And that's been the end of it. We've had calls from people begging for old programs, which we can't give to anyone off the street. With the arrival of DVD, that's the format. The quality is there, especially the audio quality. And the price point has come down to where it makes more economic sense to start rolling these out and we're doing it with a vengeance right now.
deserve erased fans known original people proud reason run seen shows single space store tape turned
We've always known there was a reason to keep all these original masters. We've never erased a single tape from any show we've ever done. We've just about run out of space to store these tapes, but they've turned out be gems. We're proud of these old shows and we think they deserve to be seen by new generations of fans and people that have been fans all along.
