Most of the Deads show's were free over at Archive (http://www.archive.org/details/GratefulDead) but when the Dead sold their rights to the vault all the Soundboards were pulled from download however you can still stream them and I even saw a post somewhere on how someone figured a work around to still download them. The only shows you can download now are audience tapes. Some sound like crap but some sound real good and IMHO I prefer a good quality aud as you get a better feel for the crowd noise, response etc;. If you're reading this and have never really gotten into the Dead I highly suggest checking out the above mentioned link and checking out some live shows. Good Stuff!!! if you want to purchase some live shows Dick's Picks series, The Road Trips series are good place to start.

. . . Thirty days of free Grateful Dead downloads (not for mean people) . . .

The dead.net site's "mean people" filter must not be working because I've scored all 26 so far . . .

You must possess some underlying redeeming quality, then!
