I first downloaded the mp3's for Columbus, Harftord and Boston...and was not happy with the quality(even though that's not a complaint...but an observation

Thought I would try the FLACs as I have heard on here they are better quality....

...just downloaded Cleveland FLAC....

...VERY VERY VERY happy...exactly what I look for in a official live boot. Well worthe the extra couple bucks.

    I will buy the FLAC files for concerts that I didn't attend but I always buy the CD's for the shows I was at....

    Don't you think you are exaggerating a bit? The sound quality of an audience recording bootleg is "shit" by definition. The average non-audiophile couldn't tell you the difference or doesn't care to. People like their mp3's just fine as long as they aren't severely compressed.
