They actually originally aired 9 songs from Slane on Thanksgiving weekend in 2002. The DVD was released after a lot of people told the band to put it out.

It was already slated for release at that point. People asking for it did not factor into it being released. It "may" have cause them to release it a bit earlier, but they were planning to release it regardless. Just like Milan 2005 will be released as well, eventually.
