From Nine Inch nails frontman, Trent Reznor:
"1.7.09: your gift!
The internet is full of surprises these days. I was contacted by a mysterious, shadowy group of subversives who SOMEHOW managed to film a substantial amount (over 400 GB!) of raw, unedited HD footage from three separate complete shows of our Lights in the Sky tour. Security must have been lacking at these shows because the quality of the footage is excellent.
If any of you could find a LINK to that footage I'll bet some enterprising fans could assemble something pretty cool.
Oh yeah, you didn't hear this from me."

Basically what Reznor did was allow a group of fans with HD filming equipment to film several shows on his last tour after it was realized for some reason their wouldn't be a traditional home video release from the tour. Apparantly Reznor has also given fans access to other footage and soundboard audio recorded from the tour by the bands own crew. You just gotta download a *lot* of GB's worth of stuff.
Here's an article about Reznor's overall "give-it-away" game plan since he left his old record label:

While I think the quality and edge of his (aka Nine Inch Nails) music has slipped in the past half decade in direct proportion to the sheer amount of stuff he's released, there's no denying Reznor's at the absolute forefront of making his work available and fan-friendly in every possible way.
