"Neither company would disclose financial terms of the deal, except to say that Wolfgang's stake is just above 50 percent and was obtained through a buyout of former Daytrotter investor Bob McIlwain of the Quad Cities." [DesMoinesRegister] (via)

Not sure what to say about this deal. I love Wolfgang's Vault and I hope that it lasts. It seems like a copyright infringement issue, but streaming a bunch of concerts from the 60s 70s and 80s really shouldn't stop anyone from buying the actual artists' records.
Any lawyers or RIAA people wanna weigh in?

Who the fuck cares what the RIAA has to say... greedy slimy finks.

There is pending litigation between Wolfgang's Vault and several of the artists whose concerts are streaming at the site.
