video recording is *hard*, and demands much more attention than audio 
recording,
which is mostly "set and forget".  i was really looking more towards 
having someone
record the show on audio.  seems like lots of folks have zoom or other 
recorders these days.

aside from the amount of attention required to record, audio is much 
easier to
distribute.  you don't need to have 100's of dvd's on your coffee 
table.  :-)
