No, you're mad that DMB is trying to make a lot of money, instead of just putting out the shows that we hardcores want released.
Because this LiveTrax came with so much merch, obviously DMB chose a show that they think will sell a lot of merch (and they have access to all the sales data so they can estimate better than us which show will sell a lot of merch).
You can be mad about their choices for Live Trax 59-61 and 63-65, because the quality of the show should be a higher priority for those LiveTrax, but even then, you only know which shows you like and whether people on these boards are complaining, whereas, again, DMB has the sales data. They MAY be choosing shows that maximize their revenue, and we just don't realize it. (The location of the show may play a bigger role in sales of a LiveTrax than we realize, for instance).
