Some folks have mentioned MP3s, I would suggest that if you are going to
have folks pay, you should stick with .WAVs. www.etree.org may have some
good ideas.  When folks are fairly serious about the legal trading of
live shows they use .shn compressed .WAV files, those are easy to burn
your own CD from. 


The other questions of payment and trust are just that, other questions
altogether.



Good luck to the band,
