That would work, too, but you are limited to one hour of sound.  The 
laptop's limitation is HDD capacity.  Best practice for videotaping 
events involves having two good sources of sound.  Usually one good 
source patched into a digital video camera, and the second good source 
is usually a hidden mini disc recorder or some other digital audio 
recording device.  Murphy's law applies.  Nothing can make a 
professional video look amateurish faster than a break in the clean 
audio feed.

Ideally, I'd lock all the video tracks to a continuous MP3 audio track. 
  Having one camera patched into the soundboard is my fallback in case 
the MP3 gets broken up at some point in the recording process.  The 
cameras are redundant to one another in terms of the video tracks.  So 
you see, with three or more good video tracks, and two good audio 
tracks, I've got enough working material to cleanly reproduce the event 
on a single edited video production.

In the spirit of open source, is there a good license we can apply to 
this?  Or maybe ESR will have a favorite license to promote for this.
