"10th ANNIVERSARY ESSENTIAL MIX DVD-ROM BOXED SET. -------------------------------------------------
To commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Radio One Essential Mix Show, a 20 disc DVD-ROM set will be issued towards the end of this year.
The boxed set will contain the complete set of every Essential Mix show broadcast over the 10 year history of the show, in high-quality MP3 format.
The edition will also contain an informative booklet detailing the history of the show and its world-wide influence on radio broadcasting, and interviews with the DJs, producers and record labels that were so crucial to making the show a groundbreaking success."
True, or false???
If true, it would be great.
If false, it would not be great.

hmm 10 years. Essential mix is weekly= ~510 essential mixes.. 2 hours each = ~170mb @ 192kbps = 86700mb/4700 = 19 dvds.. Considering the fact that factory dvds are ~twice as big it would be ~10 dvd set...
dont think its real..

A DVD is capable of containing more then 4.0 GIGS. Also, they won't have to license the sets, since the DJ's probably are on a contract of broadcasting the sets and everything, which will also probably give the right to the radio to record. Maybe licensing for selling it.. which it won't be that hard. The DJ's got paid for doing the mix in the first place soo.. I don't know. It can be true, maybe not ALL the mixes but the better/ best ones to date. I hope it's true.

Yea that would be great if they were to actaully do something, but i have hard time believing they would have every EM, but they did say 10 disc set, but still i think it would be a selected few. i SAY SOME ONE WRITE RADIO 1 AND ASK!!
