I think they should have library with concert band music in it to that would be great for those people who play in both orchestra and band!

Very little concert band music is in the public domain compared to orchestral works because most was either composed fairly recently or published with an editor.

And most concert band music from before the mid 20th century was only published in conductor's score, which sucks.

I will eventually have 88 pieces from the possibly greatest band of all time available. Also, there is much documentation of the life of Amilcare Ponchielli's band and its aftermath.
