Let's just ponder that phrase for a moment.

"it would be too expensive"

What, like a £100+ PFAYM box set? A £500 photo book? A £165 single box set? A £15 Q magazine and vinyl?

And what utter nonsense anyway. It's not like their past video releases have been like Fellini films or something is it? They could just give a competent fan a £500 camcorder, add the soundboard audio and post it on their website, or even just sell it via iTunes. "Too expensive" indeed, what a joke.
