I'm TOTALLY serious. Do you know the real mission of Drum Corps?  It's NOT to sell DVDs and souvies. It's to educate young people thru musical performance.

After hiring staff to manage licensing, paying for licensing, paying to master DVDs, duplication, shipping, and overhead, how much profit would be left?  Slim to none in my experience. 

So short sighted in my opinion. If DCI is to grow, and educate even more kids, then they need to find more sources of revenue. This is an obvious one that shouldn't be neglected the way it is. Building a library of archived shows could be very lucrative. Of course it isn't the main purpose of drum corps! But it is a simple and proven method of earning revenue that is necessary to fulfill DCI's central mission.
