I'd donate $10 to PhishTracks towards them making an app with better features than their mobile site. For example, when your phone goes to sleep the music stops because it's playing from Safari. Sure, I can turn the sleep mode off but why would I really want to do that to the battery. They need a real app.

A part of listening to shows for me is hearing an awkward conversation or annoying person on an audience recording. PhishTracks is everything LivePhish is not.

I'm definitely disappointed that the new LivePhish app doesn't feature the last show played. It was the only free high quality way of paying attention to each tour. I figured the thought process was they offer it for free for a limited time and if you want it then you'll buy it. Apparently that's not meeting the finance team's goals for the end of fourth quarter. Now Phish is getting in the ARPU game, getting a super marketing makeover. Woo!

Seriously though, only people with cash to burn should pay $99/year for this service. The band encouraged fans to create a community where this service is free. Like PhishTracks. People stream the live webcast streams for free. Is that wrong? Sharing their live performances is something they credit to spreading their music and growing their audience. Asking for a paid monthly subscription for essentially the same content seems to go against the "brand message" that was critical to their success in the first place.

I'm concerned about JEMP. Are they hard up for cash? Are things not going well? Is there a plan for an IPO? Should we get a KickStarter page going?
