I haven't finished the podcast yet, but I did get to where you discussed the digital comics and the printed comic coming out on the same day. I don't know if it's a different situation, but Marvel Digital Comics has been releasing comics before they are even printed, and that's for your regular dues (which comes out to like $5 a month or something).  
 
Example: 
 
I can read Amazing Spider-Man #634 right now with my digital subscription. It was released last Wednesday, the 9th. The actual printed comic doesn't come out until this Wednesday, the 16th.  
 
This isn't always the case, but I think it's just the beginning of a new era of comic media.
