] Kaplan adds that R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck, a noted
] record collector and bootleg aficionado, has gone on
] record applauding the service and the fact that it "cuts
] out the bootleg middleman." In other words, if his band
] isn't going to make money from concert recordings, he's
] glad that fans can get the music without a third party
] reaping profits.
]
] As previously reported, cult rock duo Ween is developing
] a peer-to-peer service that would operate in a similar
] fashion to Give It Away. The band is hoping to make
] "WeenAmp," as the software is tenatively dubbed,
] available on its forthcoming Sanctuary album "quebec,"
] due Aug. 5. The service would be regulated by the band
] itself and would allow users to swap live shows and other
] MP3s as well as view other multimedia, such as video
] cybercasts of shows on the band's upcoming tour.

The record labels don't have to get it, the bands will. The more non-infringing uses of this stuff out there prospering, the more likely good solutions that get revenue to the band will be created. It will only be a matter of time.
