Doesn't quite say free streaming. Users will be able to request a specific recording. Maybe it will arrive on a CD in 4 to 6 weeks.

FTFA:

The recordings are searchable through the BSO's performance history search engine and the public can request free access to the audio streams starting June 15.

Yup. The digital audio streams of the shows will be available, but how the data will be delivered isn't stated. Might be an online stream, a download, a CD, or an LP. Maybe he's signing collectible album covers now.

TFA doesn't have enough details, but the BSO press release says that a time-limited link will deliver the data. The phrasing on the application form implies that you'll be downloading a digital file, and there are restrictions on its use.

Regardless of how the music is delivered, this John Williams fan is very happy about this!
