Would you pay $9.99/month for a GNR streaming service with unreleased audio/video?

[TheSeeker]

GNR has a treasure trove of unreleased proshot shows - why not throw them all up on the GNR Network, charge $9.99/month, and make some money?

Would you subscribe to such a service?

No.

If I can’t OWN IT IN GOOD QUALITY, it’s just throwing money away.

I used to have a wrestling VHS/DVD collection before the WWE Network came along

Now it's completely worthless

It's 2018, get with the times

[Towelie]

Album or fuck off. They ain't getting a dime from me until they put out new music. And that includes their shitfest boxset.

[jamillos]

Probably, as long as the streams are of excellent quality, downloadable all the way, and 2011-2014 is skipped. 

[DeadSlash]

Um, I'm kind of an overboard fanboy of this band, but the catalogue just isn't there to justify this even being a discussion.  Add the lack of new content  on top of the lack of back content.  Things like the WWE network only work because there is almost daily new content added.  

[James Bond]

I’d rather pay a one time fee and just own a Blu-Ray set. Alternatively, offer a streaming service for free to fan club members. Then the fee is at least only yearly.

Because there is inevitably a limit to how much vault material there is, I wouldn’t want to pay monthly. If I want to watch my favourite movie once a month, I’m better off paying $25 once to own it forever than $120 a year (based on a monthly subscription).

I don’t know how much entertainment I’d find in watching enough UYI shows to make $120 a year totally worth it.

Please someone close the thread before Fernando reads it  jk

No offense, it would be a great idea if GNR had some frequent creative output and worked as a real band, you know...

The band will have played over 900 shows by the end of this year

Add in whatever footage Marc Canter can come up with from the early days coupled with shows from Snakepit/Velvet Revolver/SMKC and that would be dope

Paying monthly seems like too much........ but if they were going to make stuff available that you can purchase/download, like any other song from iTunes, then yeah.... that'd be nice.

Yes, kinda but they have to give me something live every month. An interview, show, rehearsal, 3 hour meeting. I don’t care what. 

[WillBailey]

Of course I would, for all eras (I loved the 2006 European tour for instance). And i'd pay more if i could download some of that stuff to watch when/ how i want.

i am always ready to pay for GUNS N ROSES music

[janrichmond]

yes i'd pay for the '85-'93 in a heartbeat 

[RussTCB]

I've been saying this for literally YEARS.

A subscription service where you could watch any of their proshot shows would rake in TONS of money.

You wrote that for the band/management's attention, didn't you haha? You know how they operate.

Nah, but I really have been saying this for years and years. So if they haven't noticed it / taken action yet, they're not gonna start now lol

I'd do a 1-time payment if the price was right but i wouldn't be in to a monthly payment deal.

But i doubt this band could pull it off without it being an unmitigated disaster.

[Gem Archer]

i would pay but only per show, just like metallica, pearl jam or springsteen does...

[zigzagbigbag]

Count me in if there would be a database where you can download each show (audio/video) in lossless format (!) for 10€/$ each. 

No way I am gonna pay for mp3s or streaming.

[zombux]

they might as well rename the band to Ripoffs N' Sellouts.

[auad]

If TB paid me $ 9.99 a month I could devote an hour or two a month to listen to new GNR songs.

[superloconoriega]

the award winning G.N.R. network

[moreblack]

I'd pay that much for a spotify type database of every band's concerts, but not just one band.

[Tom2112]

The costs involved in selling the recorded live shows (since the pro tools revolution) is so small that I can't believe they haven't done it yet. I'd guess Axl just doesn't like the idea... Or maybe doesn't want to open up the door to that kind of detailed criticism. 

It would be great, just like if they released pro shot video audio... Basically copy and paste the Metallica blueprint.
