so you may get a good quality recording of the concert

Oh, I already got the State College show on 3 CD's, with excellent quality. They mastered and released CD's of all the shows on the tour... It's just a matter of whether they are sold through traditional outlets. I think the Billboard article there is just saying they're picking a few of the shows and releasing them to record stores the same way they did with the tour a couple years ago... The only difference really is that for this tour, you had to buy from their site, rather than a retailer.
