The Keep Audio Commentary - Drlazarus - 05-09-2009
FPW, you mention that you recorded an audio commentary to be released on CD when "The Keep" came out on DVD. Even though they haven't released it on DVD, I would like to hear it anyhow. I have an old VHS copy that I could sync up with the CD.
Perhaps it could be made available as a download from audible or I-Tunes. It would save on production costs (for a CD) and all the fans could get a copy.
Any chance?

Belated welcome DrLazarus. You'll like it here.
And, you are a genius, BTW, Shad.
Best idea on the board in the last month, if not longer. Where do I sign up for one, FPW?

Thanks for welcome!
Maybe if enough of us ask for it, he'll make it available. I would love to hear it.

I regularly download a podcast that runs to 2 to 2 & a half hours
So not really, depending on web traffic I can get the podcast in 10 - 15 minutes (and on rare exceptions even quicker)
So shouldn't be a problem
Not sure how go about selling it commercially on i tunes - but I don't think size will be an issue

I'd offer to convert them but I never invested in a DAT component either for my audio system or my computers.

Is there a good recording studio that encodes directly to MP3?

It would be a large file, but lots of audiobooks and podcasts run longer than that. It could also be sold as one lot, but downloaded in smaller parts. I-Tunes does that with it's audiobooks. I bought "Hell House" and it downloaded in two parts each 4 1/2 hours long, and the files were only 62MB each.
I have no idea how you get it on I-Tunes or audible, but there is a tech guy out there somewhere who does.
