No doubt in my mind that streaming live events & concerts is going to be a big deal in the future... check this out:

Free App, Live Streaming Music and Video on Your iPhone — From Apple

http://allthingsd.com/20110622/free-live-streaming-music-on-your-iphone-from-apple/

Wired.com’s John Abell thinks this app could be the precursor to a long-running series of live events streamed by Apple. Who knows? Could be. My hunch is that Apple is putting the app out as a glorified demo and will be happy to let other companies carry the ball forward from here.

Apple Launches HD Streaming App for iTunes Festival 2011

Tellingly, the app too is called iTunes Live — a name that doesn’t necessarily tie it to this particular festival. It could be a sign of more live music to come from the Cupertino crew. And because Apple puts on this festival itself, it has one less party to worry about convincing to agree to license the live appcast — an issue that has dogged other companies with similar ideas.
