How to Give Louis C.K.’s “Live at the Beacon Theater” as a Gift

According to “LCK Support”, a gifting option is coming, and may be up as early as later today. Maybe a consideration in your holiday gift planning.

We’ve been working on a gifting option and it should be up tomorrow. You can register a friend’s email address, but it will probably be easier to wait for the gift option.

Hello lovely minions of Louis C.K.,

I would like very much to get this as a gift for a friend. Could I simply buy it again and use said friend’s email address during the purchase process? Or is there a more formal/less kludgey way to do this?

Thanks, -Dustin-

Also: they wrote me back in < 10min at 11:30 in the P.M. That’s impressive.

Finally: I read that he really sweated the details about how to present the thing. Evidenced by this line on the Contact page: “The video is MP4 (H.264) encoded, with an Ogg Theora option for those who prefer not to use H.264.”

Who the hell else has ever sold something on the internet of this caliber with an option to get the damned thing in Ogg Theora? Say what you will about the FSF, Ogg, H.264, patents, and the rest of it, this is frickin’ cool and a real olive branch to some folks. If it wasn’t for PayPal and a lack of guarantees about air conditioning levels, Stallman might actually buy this thing.
