I think without question it didn't go well. If I wasn't on iorr I wouldn't have even heard about it. I bet the majority on iorr didn't even buy them.

I have the picture - and all I say from now on is speculation based on hints from here and there - that "Stones Archive" is just a by-product for the bigger money deal they did with Google Play. It is the latter company that actually made the whole thing possible, that is, profitable for the band ($$$$). The deal was those six releases, and that's it. If they'd been more succesfull there might have been other releases, but Google simply doesn't seem to be any longer interested (the whole thing might have been just a PR campaign for them to promote the medium especially in the US market, and not to gain big direct profits by big sales, since the Stones is a good brand). For the rest of the world - to gather those extra pennies for already done job for nothing - was launched "Stones Archive". I guess we belonging to that world should consider ourselves lucky for many reasons... To put it simply: without Google deal, there would not have been "Stones Archive".

Anyway, as far as futures releases go, I predict that in order that to happen they should get a new (good) deal from some other party to get them motivated... To sell a few downloads by their own via Stones Archive will not do that...
