Personally, the point of taking notes is to get your own impression not for a little translation of the material. If you had a digital exact copy, you would then have to go back through the material to pick out the important points. This is a lot of doubling of effort.
I am basically wanting to record for podcasts for certain things. My notes would be for my personal information. A transcript just seems like a lot of wasted material. This is my personal opinion however and I am aware that many people record lectures and then go back and take notes. I assume that they have more time in their life to be able to attend the lecture twice.
