MP3 is definitely the format I'd use.  I haven't checked the difference
in size between 44.1 stereo RealAudio (non-streamed) and a similar
Mpeg3, but the comparison must be close, if not favourable.  Certainly
the quality is a vast improvement.

If you'll excuse the shameless plug.

If I were in a popular band who's fans recorded gigs, all I would ask
would be that they let us know and send us a decent copy (burnt CD?).
I'd then make either the CD available through Mail Order (costs only),
or, if we made enough money, get a site with lots of space and upload
every track in MP3.

Or just call me irresponsible.  My (hypothetic) record company would
then sue us then kill us dead then market all our back catalogue and not
pay us a bean.

Chris.
